Yup, 7 PSI and 14 PSI

Well if I were to go with a stage 0 ZPI...how would the prices look?

I mean, to get the car running smoothly as a daily driver, how much do you think I would have to drop? (I have no performance mods right now).

The kit is 2250.00

What else would I need? From what I read, probably an exhaust, fuel injectors, inter cooler maybe? Then the tune and labor. Gauges too...oh and probably eventually a new clutch.

Mr_Meaty

The things you need to make the stage 0 run really good would be equal to their stage 1, so you may as well start there. And if that's the price yoru looking at, it puts you in the ballpark with many of the other kits out there.

MVPlaya

Really good as in..? Really fast or just reliable?

I mean I see a lot of people on here with just the ZPI stage 0...?

Whocares05050

Please do not mislead people.

You could get an emanage, BOV, and an exhaust and be WELL under all other kits.

Mr_Meaty

You left out intercooler, injectors, and a harness for the emanage. That will put you in the same price range as many other kits. What part of this is missleading?

mattvs

fixed that one for you :p

MVPlaya

What the point of having a ZPI stage 0 if it's not going to be stable or good?

Mr_Meaty

The stage 0 is great for those that want to get into boost sooner or can't save up for the full stage one.
This way, they get boosted now and can upgreade to a stage one later on.
If you want a reliable, good running daily driver, you at least need the BOV. If you live in Vegas, your going to want the intercooler. My friend just got the intercooler on his and it's bogging down, he thinks cause of injectors, so you gotta get those. If you get injectors, your going to want the management to controll everything. Well, theirs your stage 1 right there.

So I didn't say the stage 0 would not be stable or good. It's a great starting point. but EVENTUALLY, you are going to want to upgrade it to the stage 1. My mentallity is you may as well start with the stage 1. Personally, I hate how they have the IC piping on the stage 0 to stage 1 upgrade, but it's a clever design for what they have. I just don't like the way it looks.

Whocares05050

Because you dont need an intercooler , injectors, and harness for the emangae. The stock injectors handle 6 psi, its not a neccessity for an intercooler, and you can wire the emanage yourself.

AGAIN keeping you WAY under other kits...

mattvs

If you're going to do something, do it right the first time and don't budget yourself at the risk of ____ing things up.

Yea, it may not be a mechanical necessity, but I'll be damned if it isn't a good idea to get them.

MVPlaya

So you're telling me the ZPI turbo kit stage 0 is just an easy step in, but if you want the real deal you should just get the stage 1?

Silver-Tc

There is a guy here local in NC who can tune my Emanage Uit. for $400 and that includeds the wiring of the emanage.

Whocares05050

I wouldnt budget myself either, trust me, but what im trying to explain is how the kit will work without it. The stage 0 is an entry level turbo kit that fits most peoples budget. its a great starting point, and should be taken as only that.

rozz-tC

i agree whocares, I've been rollin the stage 0 since last winter, granted i switched cars right in the middle to a 5 spd, but it still runs awesome, i am getting to the point i need a new clutch, but i run it pretty hard aswell.

I also picked up emanage blue and a PnP harness cause the deal was to good to pass up, but its hooked up, with no tune right now, waiting for my clutch trip to ZPI for the tune.

Mr_Meaty

That's exactly what I was trying to say.
