Seriously, just because you don't have the skills that ZPI does making turbo systems, doesn't mean you need to be so ignorant. Admit that you're wrong.

First of all, I never asked for someone to trailor or ship a car out here so i can dyno it. My questions and concerns are based out of skeptism from my experience tuning cars. Its not about skills and there is no need to compare the abilities of one shop vs. another. You guys might be missing the point also. Its not all about peak hp numbers. You want to have some reliability also ok? Sure I can slap a high flow exhaust, bump up boost, and lean it out and make 190whp, but at what cost? The kit advertises an increase of power to 180whp. Is that for normal use? Is that for everyday driving? All the FI kits out there can bump power to 180whp, but they dont. I am just wondering why. Whats the torque curve with that kit? Whats was the AFR, timing, etc for them to make 181whp?

The kit's coming along nicely. I was up there today and saw the xb on my tour of the shop. They're waiting on pipes from the bender.

Hopefully this week Proshop should be bolted up, tuned, and running.. I'm this week or next week for my kit to arrive.. then it's testing time... We'll be doing a video of the install for all to see + dyno/track runs just for the fun of it in different climates...

Pipes are in guys, charge pipes are being coated, and hopefully today/tommorrow Proshop should be bolted up and tuned... hopefully next week he should be rolling #1 ZPI powered XB on the streets... I should ship out shortly after that, then i start a video install and start doing dyno runs/track runs.. Fun ...

Can I point somthing out...

THey making a xB kit...

They havent even shipped all the tC kits... hmm how long you think the wait is for the xB kit.

And after seeing there dynos for the tC stage 0 and now seeing streeters dynos for the stage 0 and being a 48whp difference I think that says alot (i know dynos and condintions are different, but 48whp)

From what I understand they are stocked to ship the tC kits.... As far as the xB proshop and I are doing the first street/real world tests, we are putting our cars through the paces and helping ZPI with any final tweaks of the turbo kit before it is put into final release. So we should be rolling soon, but as far as production, it may be a few more weeks. I'm sure more will unfold soon..

And yes 48whp gain on a tC is quite respectable. Though that stage1 monster they have is intriguing....

I have never dynoed a ZPI kit but I can tell you that Turbonetics kit on the TC is monstous. Well over 250whp and that kid has a stock exhaust!

Awesome, I know they are hitting those sort of #'s and higher on a stage 1. I'm going to boost my tC after the xB, so we'll see what happens... boost=fun
