Does anyone have a bill of material for the ZPI stage 0 kit? I'm talking about a parts list. I think I'm missing some stuff but I wont know what to ask for if I don't know it is missing...

I would hate to start the install and get stuck because I'm missing a gasket or a screw or a fitting -You know what I mean.

If you search for Zach (BlackSndPrlturbotC)'s thread, he got his pan off pretty easy. Somehow if you wedge a crowbar in there, you can pry it off fairly easy.

Just make sure you take everything out to clear room for it...mainly the S-Pipe.

I read about using the tC lug wrench to pry it off.

That sounds like a wonderful way to gouge up the bottom of your aluminum block.

Did you see Zach's pics? I think he picked a good "safe" spot to use as leverage.

No gouges at all. I found a "safe" spot as Travis said

^^Just do me a favor, don't turn up the boost until your car is ready to handle it. Be ADDICTED, not another STATISTIC.

ooohhhh....That's going to be a tough one, being that your Auto. If manual, then I would have told you 8 PSI and you would walk a stock SRT-4.

No one has any "real world" data/experience racing with the Auto's on Turbo kits. How about you get us some vids and we can see..
