Wow, ZPI took a big crap huh, no kidding.. I am glad I never bought parts from them. If any parts are still in circulation I wonder if they are cheaper.

FMI - Front Mount Intercooler
BHP - Brake Horsepower (same as WHP)
JDM - Japanese Domestic Market (Never buy anything labeled JDM for the tC)
USDM - US Domestic Market
FTW - For The Win
FTL - For The Loss
TBL - Third Brake Light
SE - Scion Evolution
I/H/E - Intake/Header/Exhaust
FI - Forced Induction
S/C - Supercharger
slightly wrong on the BHP. Brake horse power is what manufacturers use to rate a car. Also what people call base horse power. BHP is more like EHP (engine horse power).


Brake horsepower (bhp) is the measure of an engine's horsepower without the loss in power caused by the gearbox, generator, differential, water pump, and other auxiliary components. Thus the prefix "brake" refers to where the power is measured: at the engine's output shaft, as on an engine dynamometer. The actual horsepower delivered to the driving wheels is less. An engine would have to be retested to obtain a rating in another system. The term "brake" refers to the original use of a band brake to measure torque during the test (which is multiplied by the engine RPM and a scaling constant to give horsepower).
