what i dont understand is youre starting and introduction but you give ZERO specs. What turbo? etc etc etc. This thread is pointless. Good luck competing with zpi and dezod. Dezod has the best tuning capabilities (awsome base map) and incredible turbo knowledge and zpi beats the ____ out of everything to see if it will hold up.
Hope you end up with something to offer.

Thats a really nice way to turn down a company that are willing to make something for our cars, even if theres too many turbo's out there, it still doesnt beat the fact that these new guys "Might" have better quality parts and affordable price.

Lets just give them a chance all, and we will see how things turn out.

P.S. i am not sponsored by them in anyway nor have i bought from them before. "my dream team is Dezod"

To say that we do not give you a good bang for your buck is insane.

Anyway..........back on topic.

i will be ordering soon

Alex what up brother. I havent put specs out yet. I will be heading to my Fab guys place after work today and getting the pics for you all to see. To all those that are being skeptics, 2 things I understand where your coming from but being a SCION OWNER myself this kit will be worth it. I know some of you are huge fans of Dezod and ZPI which is fine they are good companies. But please like others are saying no need for bashing if your gonna bash dont post. This is a "heads up" thread to give all that are non turbo and want to be a good kit for less money. There were a few comments from some like the one reguarding tuning, but you dont know how we tune, We have a gentleman here you was head mech for Roush Racing for 7 years and also have a few others gentleman that have been working on 4cyc from the time modding them started, please dont under estimate us. Once the kit is revealed and you dont like it let us know what we need to do to make it better. Positive critism is fine .

Well I just got off the phone with my fab guy as I was writing this and I wont have pics of the kit till tomorrow.

i will give a few specs on the kit being made now. It will be a 61mm tubro, and intercooled. We are believing it will have the base kit at 300hp and then will have upgrades available to make it a higher Hp. The kit will come with Emanage Ult with or base tune, Wideband and Boost gauge, injectors, and more.

I will keep you all posted.

You can't make 300whp on 8.5 psi. But then again you wrote 300hp, sounds like Turbonetics 300hp advertized numbers, tuned with 94 octane at the crank. You'd have a much better response out of people on this site if you didn't come out swinging for the fences. With the cost of boost and fuel components (+labor), I can't believe you can make a kit for under $4k unless you cut things out like Greedy only to have to end up buying them anyways. But hey, lets see what this kit can do.

I would rather swing for the fences then attempt for a base hit. I dont want to put something out thats is garbage or is something thats not what I would want. I only want qaulity products. So if im swinging and I miss Ill keep going till its knock out of the park.

So what psi wastegate spring are you guys going to go with for 300hp? Forgive me for my negative criticism. Working in the manufacturing industry I know when people cut prices there’s a draw back somewhere, whether it be parts or labor. I’ll wait until we get a neutral buyer to install this kit and see what they have to say about fitment and dyno numbers. The toughest thing is trying to weed out people that have become bias about a companies products when trying researching quality.

Incorrect. I do not want to step onto Stripper's thread but I can gaurantee you it is possible to make 305 WHP on 8.5 PSi given the correct tuning, turbo and setup.
