Joe's car is looking real good, I cant wait to go down there and have mine, joe's, kenny's and Charles's in a row and take a pic of that, I dont know about you, but that would make my mouth water. Just wait, it could be coming sooner then you think!!

Seriosly, that car needs to go out and set the benchmark as far as a standard stage 1 running 10psi is concerned. Street tires is a must and we'll overlook the fact that it has a stage 1 head.

hey looks like you chose not to hear your wastegate dump tube..it appears to be re routed back into the exhaust. Is there a reason you did this or just for the sake of your ear drums lol?

Joe did this as he is 64 years old and did not want to sound like a ricer. We also kept his car a little quieter as he uses it everyday and takes roud trips on the weekend

Thanks

Now visit ZPI's Website. Keep in mind that he pre-ordered his kit and ordered several other parts so he probably got a discount.

Joe has soent a lot of money with us, he was the first head package and got some of his parts where custom before we decided to go into making them.

I will let him decide to tell you a total but it was over the 5k mark.
