anyone install the kit themselves?
Would it be best to get it tuned after install?
Any idle problems with the auto?

I gave up on boosting my TC Auto and getting a Kawasaki ZX-14, put my deposit on Monday. Too many strange issues... When a reliable and predictable 100+hp turbo is available for the Auto, let me know. I will be selling my stuff (still new in boxes) on EBAY next week. The 40-50hp SC is not worth the money... I'll be focusing on suspension and wheels for now. Good Luck to ALL.

What is the 1/4 mile time for the ZPI Stage 0 Kit? I have looked, but only find ZPI Stage 1 Kit.

I have stage 0 for now, waiting for stage 1parts and tranny upgrade to get finished by ZPI. So far the kit is sick. Instant power is avaliable with a touch of accelerator pedal. I have CEL but the car idles stock. I need to upgrade my coilover bolts for extra load from the ingalls torque dampner and I will be ready to post some pics :D

so eveyone with the stage 0 gets a cel? are there ways to fix the issue?

Retro drive do you have an automatic?

Can someone also help me out by telling me if i need anything exept for the zpi stage o kit. I heard peopel had to change fuel injectors and stuff and that the car needs to be changed to idle good and stuff. And the cel? I plan on gettign the kit in sept and will be installign it myself and just want to know all the extra things I need or if just installing the kit is fine.

^^Correction, not fuel injectors, but the spark plugs. It was advised to go to a colder plug. Now in the case of a Stage 1, it comes with upgraded injectors.

As far as the CEL goes, yes you may experience a cel. But the antifoulers should take care of that.

so just colder spark plugs everything else handles the boost justr fine? no larger injectors advised? How does the kit do on stock exhaust?

And one more queston about the zpi stage o will it pass emissions? or does that just depend on the state?

This is davids Scion tC stage 0 car. He did have the optional FMIC but other than that his car was a standard stage 0 with our full exhaust...You can see more pics of his car and videos in the gallery section of our site...

^^That's just one guy. There aren't enough data to make a determination on what the Stage 0 puts out in the 1/4 mile. So far, I think that's the only 1/4 run with someone with a Stage 0. Eveyone else just hasn't had time to hit the track.

Like to see more 1/4 mile times. I was hoping it would be in the 13's.

I believe that would be possible. The Stage 0 puts a little more whp and tq down than a stock SRT-4. Try to find the avg. 1/4 for the SRT-4, and a Stage 0 tC should be around that or slightly faster.

I dont think that would be a real fair way to asess that cause the SRT-4 has a LSD...which would probly help them out a lil better than us in the 1/4...if anything, w/ more power than the SRT-4 and no LSD like them, we would probly be neck and neck with times

If anything you would want to compare the MPH and not the E.T. in this case.
