Weight reduction. The guttet everything, and the stock tC seats are heavy. That Buddy club seat is light.

im not liking this show too much, it looks like a lot of hidden info and stuff.

the ZPI car had I/H already, but like travis said, that was allowed.

also, its s 1000ft race? wth? why not make it a quarter mile, only 320 more.

and that is an automatic trans am right? stupid lady said i can outdrive the other car..

They will, but $1500 dollars does not buy a turbo kit...

They should be including the turbo in the next round. Will just have to wait and see how it all pans out.
The next show is going to be really good because of how strong the ZPI turbo is. Looking forward to it.

That lady with the red Trans Am will be damn surprise how fast the tC runs when ZPI puts a turbo in it. I can't wait to see the next show if they are actually putting one.

Compared to my racing seats they do. Stock seats probably weigh about 30-40lbs. My seats weigh 19lbs.

i was able to catch it on youtube.com... under pipes episode 5

thanks for the info rhythm. I was checking out the ZPI site, and the only measurements i saw were for a 3" downpipe back. The s-pipe and mid pipe dont say if its 2.5 or not. Is it safe to say that they are 2.5?

WHAT! You don't like PINKS! I think you have lost your little Racing chip that was implanted into your head. We need for you to find it and re-program it.

They offer 2 exhaust. There Newest product is the 3 inch Turbo Back exhaust. And they still offer their old exhaust, which is 2.5 inch as well as an S-pipe to go with that exhaust, which is also 2.5 inch. You purchase both of those and you have a 2.5 inch Turbo back exhaust.
