Does anyone know anyone that has this turbo kit. I was thinkin about getting a turbo kit and not sure which one. I want about 300 hp and sometime in the next few months I will be getting my engine redone. But if anyone had any input on this i would appreciate it.

Ours is Stage 1 equipped, MikeScion is Stage 1 equipped, and there are others on here that are Stage 0 equipped, with a few added mods.

wtc_81

so how do you guys like the stage 1 kit??

rhythmnsmoke

Love every minute of it. No stalls, BOV is loud, pulls hard, You have seen the vids right...PURE SEX!

wtc_81

did you have to buy anything else?? like gauges and what not?? and any tips if I do get it??

rhythmnsmoke

Oh Yeah, got it all at once. Gauges, new clutch and a turbo timer where the extra equippment that went in the same time as the kit. Turbo timer is not manditory, but it comes in very handy. Gauges and a new clutch come HIGLY recommended when you get any kit putting out over 250whp.

with the emanage do u guys have a cel? what is the code? just catalyst or more?

rhythmnsmoke

I'm not sure about everyone, but the 3 people including us that I know of that have this kit have a CEL.

I haven't had the code read yet, but here is the possible reasons why we have a CEL.

1) There are no Cat's on our car
2) It's set to PIG rich

So, I'm curious to know what the code reads. I want to try some sort of 02 Sim, to see if I can get rid of the CEL.

hmm... I have the zpi spipe with the anti thingy in it and I dont get a cel does that mean if I use the zpi turbo.. i wont get a cel code?

rhythmnsmoke

I have a ZPI s-pipe + ZPI exhaust. I don't have any anti "thingy"...LOL in it though. The S-pipe by itself moves the 02 sensor back a couple of inches.

i have a mechanical antifouler (u can make them for about 4bucks from autozone) and that got rid of my "catalyst efficiency" code. i was wondering if teh emanage set a code

btw u can go to advance auto and they will read ur code for free.

Works perfect for me..

rhythmnsmoke

Yeah, I found that out the other day, so I'm going to roll over there and have it read to see what it says. Just hope they don't screw something up.

I got stage 1 on an auto if that counts?

rhythmnsmoke

^^You get my vote...

wtc_81

Ok I think zpi is what i'ma gonna go. You all have numbers if I have any questions about install

rhythmnsmoke

No one better to talk to than the people behind the kits. Probably faster to IM than to call them, but Kenny would be available to answer your questions, as well as some of the people here on SL.

Yo, just had my codes read. I was expecting like 1 or 2 codes at the most. Then the lady at autozone printed what I like to call the "wrapsheet". I almost **** a brick when I saw the list of codes. I was a little bummed, but Kenny squared me away. Informed me to reset the computer. So, I did, and went back to have the codes read again. The lady was like there won't be any difference if you didn't change anything. So, the new read came back, and I had only ONE code:

P0031
H02S Bank 1 Sen 1
Heater Circuit

So, just need an 02 Sensor and I'm good to go. Turns out the other codes were just "history" codes and the computer spitted them out thinking that's what happened when it really wasn't. The MAF had a hickup and gave incorrect readings, cause driving the car, it never skipped a beat.

What kind of gas do you have to use with this turbo kit?
