ordered my head,piston, and stag 0!update w/tracking #'s Yay
I just got done with my order from ZPI 10 minutes ago!
Order included:
8.5:1 turbo pistons
stage 1 head P&P package
greddy emanage
all harnesses and support tool
head gasket
head studs
rod bearings
and stage 0 turbo!
Kenny has been great to work with considering I have been bugging him for about 3 weeks now trying to get everything together! Don't know if you know this or not but I hydrolocked my motor. So I'm doing an engine swap and thought what the hell since i will have the whole car apart why not spend some of the insurance money on performance. I will take lot's of pics the keep you updated on the progress. I'm pulling the motor this weekend.
Thanks for all the help Kenny and ZPI.

My brother was driving it in Dallas the weekend of MArch 17th and ended up in about 3 feet of water...... CAI + 3 ft of water = hydrolocked! If you saw the news Dallas got about 6-12 inches depending on the location.
watching to see this. Why not the stage 1 to add the intercooler? You spent alot of money, why not go all the way?
I'm saving for the intercooler. I'm already stretching my funds from what I was saving for the performance parts anyways. I'm coming out of pocket $2000.00 plus all the install costs. Sooooooo it will come shortly after.... about a month or so...I'm paying all cash no financing so i'm happy with waiting.

the $2000.00 is my out of pocket expense. the insurance is covering everything else. I wanted to build the motor first. i have always been a n/a guy but now after building the motor and having the money I want to go the first step of stage 0 turbo. i'm saving now for the intercooler and hopefully will have it by the time it shows up. I will post picks on Monday hopefully! We are getting the motor in today and hopefully starting the motor pull.
I will dyno the day it is done.!!! i cant wait!!!!!

i'm hoping to be between 290-300. I'm also running a 75 shot so hopefully after dyno and tuning i will be able to be over 300. Future plans include Clutch, brakes, upgrading the tubo,
