How would a zpi turbo maxed out do against a 2zz motor swap?

Sorry, elaborate on the point you're trying to make.
I think what he was trying to say was, 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)!


In fact that's exactly what he said... makes perfect sense.

I don't follow up on the tC stuff, ergo why I didnt comprehend what he was talking about...I guess we'll see what happens with all of this as things are about to unfold.

ZPI claimed high hp with the stage 0 kit with the tC... and now somone actually dynoed it out of the box... and it was alot lower in hp... 48whp lower

I see where you are going with this. 48hp is a big difference then what was dynod at ZPI, though I'm personally not familiar with the different dynos used in these tests/etc, there are other things to take into account (large, open down pipes/exhausts, altitude/climate, any other engine mods, fuel management, etc). I'm not disputing this, just saying maybe there's more to it than a simple "zpi sucks" thread.

When my xB kit arrives from them, I hope it does indeed live up to its claim, then again I'll be tuning it and am comfortable that the #'s will be fairly close...

dynos can be different and so can conditions but 48 whp.... im just saying people dont get your hopes up... by saying it will run these numbers they exxpect more sales. In the end the kit will probally be alot less whp

Keith if you wouldn't mind, please keep the ZPI bashing for tC kits to the tC forum or even the shop experience and review area. This is an informative thread to keep xB owners up to date on the status of the ZPI xB turbo kit. Please try to keep it that way.

I think the xB owners need more of an update on the company status...not the status of their kit...they seemed to have fallen off this past month on the internet and I know they had weddings and such, but that was a few weeks ago already

Vito, I beleive they are busy trying to get the kits that people have ordered assembled and shipped out and they are trying to get the cars that are in the shop done so they will have less disgruntled customers roaming about. With all that going on there I would think getting on the internet is the last thing crossing their minds. Thats just my two cent's thou.
