Default ZPi went to the track

Well guys we came up to visit our good friends at Buschur Racing and decided to take the Scion to the track. This is the first time that we have had the car on the 1/4 mile.

We posted some good numbers this is on a stage 1 bolt on kit w/external running a little more boost at 14 psi. We are currently running some M&H slicks but they where not heat cycled. We just want to let everyone know what would be needed tp duplicate these times with one of our kits.

We made three consecutive passes at:
12.12@114
12.19@113
12.28@113

What is the fastest tC using the back it up rule?

Yeah we have no idea, We maybe getting a little excited either way this car only has under 400 whp we feel this really show how well the 16g utilizes the tC pwoerband to create a very fast street car.

Yes but to be "offical" it needs to be backed up with a run within a 1/10 a sec. This is to prevent any one hit wonders. Some think this is a good rule some think it is BS either way it is what the rest of the world uses.

We will post the slips when we get back to our shop in the KY.

Great video, sounds awesome... I think with a couple more practice runs you can definitly get that 1.9 sec reaction time down to place you in the 11 second range.

Is there anything else on the car?

Scion Speed's car has their stage 3 as well as a protoype dual exhaust system and ran 12.

I wonder if the Scionspeed car had slicks or not?

In any case, 12.1-2 is pretty good for a second stage turbo in comparison..

Yeah the scionspeed car was running slicks (unsure on the size though), it also dynoed at like 420hp or somewhere near there...

Nice Vid ZPI! Please do fill us in on what other mods were done to the car (clutch, exhaust, etc.)

This car is not very heavily modified like you may think. We do not change turbos go to the track to run good numbers.

Stage 1 turbo kit...just like you buy nothing special
38mm external
manual boost controller
Clutch Masters Clutch
Fidanza Flywheel
Tein S-tech springs
Open Downpipe
14 psi
Boost Gauge
Wideband
Extra Emanage tuning to compensate the boost.

Thats it, this car is at the shop everyday and can be verified by Dave Buschur and John Shephard today. These two are very well known so I am sure there credability is enough.


Thanks

I imagine the flywheel, boost controller, and open downpipe are quite a bit of help; still, that's pretty damn fast for an approximately 600 dollar set up (fly + controller). I don't think you'd have to pay for an open downpipe to be honest..

I can't wait to see how fast the ZPI stage 2 will run.

I also can't wait til ScionSpeed makes a bunch of stuff to try and beat it! Dare I say, capitalism at work?

I don't think they were running that much power at the track when they ran the 12.0. The 12.0 was run with 14.5psi.

The second part of the video, closer up to the car, really helps
show the speed of the car. It really picked up!

(sigh)

Dreaming of a turbo xB.
