Sorry that they are a company that has other cars that they need to complete. They stated this in another thread. I know they still drive the car on a regular basis. It is in prototype phases and they are wanting to make sure they don't rush a product that might have some flaws.

Build a kit, put some miles on it to make sure that other parts aren't affected like axles, internals, transmission, etc. They are being smart about this kit and i am sure that a lot of people respect that decision.

can understand that they are a company, but then they shouldnt say they are going to the dyno with it soon. like harmonic_tc said its a month later and still no dyno. I was interested in the kit but the waiting for some real hard numbers is getting too lenghty.

Hey guys i think were all waiting on dyno numbers and yes they have fallen a little behind on getting them. But i have looked at a lot of F/I setups for the xB's and not a single one has given a hard dyno numbers, only a questionable percentage or nothing at all, ( ZPI could have just thrown the same thing out there like 48% HP gain, but they havent cause they will proably give us an actually HP #). So until these other companies give an actual HP number and not a percentage or nothing at all, why dont you give ZPI a break.

I know the wait sucks trust me we want to know what the actual WHP is also.

You put a clutch in you have to let it break in for a few hundred miles before dyno pulls can be made. Last weekend was the KY Derby and if you know anything about it the city of Louisville basically shut downs.

We are going to make it to the dyno but we have to do it in the right steps and we can not leave the other cars in the shop from various states on the back burner as we move forward with the xB. The big delay was getting time to get the clutch in now we have to get some miles on it... Trust me the wait will be worth the reward..
