the cat has been let out...
Everybody can say thank you to my wonderful loving and innocent girlfriend melissa (TC06CHICK) for letting the cat out of the bag in the SCAA aftermath thread.
might as well explain myself now.....Yes the box is getting a ZPI turbo. No i did not get it for free through tim...nor did i get any kind of a discount. the price i pay is the price anybody else pays. i will be doing a little bit of custom work to the piping and possibly the FMIC and anadizing (sp?) it black as tim will be doing to go for the true "sleeper" look. All my piping i'll be painting 24karat gold (same as on my car). black couplers instead of the goofy blue ones they send me. will probably cut into the dash to the left of the speed-o and mount my boost/O2 gauges. No Erik im not putting a duck call or mosse call or any call on my BOV...just not happening. Should be in the vacinity of 180WHP. i'll let you know when i get it and get it on the dyno. and for all you people who are wondering what all it comes with..here is a nice list for you!
• T304 Polished stainless intercooler piping
• HKS SSQ BOV
• ZPIracing 26x12x3 Bar and Plate intercooler
• ZPIracing 4 ply silicon couplers
• Stainless Steel Breeze Hose Clamps
• MHI 14b turbo Charger
• ZPIracing 38mm Wastegate (.6 bar spring)
• ZPIracing T304 Stainless Turbo Feed pipe
• ZPIracing T304 Stainless Slip fit Down Pipe
• ZPIracing Air Filter
• ZPIracing MAF flange
• ZPIracing high Flow oil return pump
• Greddy Emanage with injector harness
• ZPIracing 4 ply silicon vacuum line
• All misc, fittings, bolts, brackets, etc
i have my clutch matsters stage 3 clutch sitting on my dresser ready to go in. just have to find someone to install it for me as i dont wnt to pay my dealership 500 bucks to install it....
i think that is about all i have left to say. Start the questioning process and tim and i will most likely be the ones to answer!

I can help you with the clutch my buddy has a shop with a lift that we can use. You might want to get an aluminum flywheel to put on while you have the car taken apart, it'll help with the turbo lag. Take that advice for what you paid for it.

i have ZERO dollars left for anythingi but the few extra things i need for the turbo its self. otherwise i would get a flywheel. but that sounds like a gooood offor! send me a pm with some details on that!
although im not worried about lag or any of that fun stuff becaus eim not going to hardcore race my baby or anything...but because im curious, and might want to do more debt..how much is a flywheel?
