if you guys are looking for e-manage harness discount, I doubt it will happen. They sell it so close to cost it isn't funny.

So this can be used on a N/A engine right? Could I possibly get this and later upgrade to a supercharger and still be able to use the E.S.K? I won't be pushing over 250hp ever so I guess this would work right? Also I would like to know if it has a "on or off button", someone previously asked this question but I guess ZPI missed it.

The E.S.K. has an on or off switch I believe but the valve body upgrade does not. As for an update I'm still waiting on that one myself.

Scion tC's aren't going to push more than 244hp or so.Those are what the dyno's run with the Stage 0 ZPI, Stage 1 gives a little more but it isn't 300hp.

If anyone's interested there is a fully engine/twin turbo kit that fits the tC
hits around 1100HP

est price...37,500

Actually here is a dyno of stage-1 on 10.5psi making 293whp and 338wrq. Lets translate that to crank hp shall we? You can also raise boost by 0.5 psi and have over 300whp. I think you are talking about stage 0 with intercooler.

I am planning to run as much PSI as 91 octain would allowes me. I need that tranny upgrade bad.

LOL if you think thats all they will run, you are very confused. My car should be finished very soon and I will be pushing almost double probably on race gas and somewhere about 400 on 91. So stay tuned.

GOOD Luck GUYS, I think it still needs more testing, maybe for an additional 15k-20k miles. I am selling my 06 TC Automatic if anyone's interested, so I can get a truck. I paid $22.5k OTD with the small spoiler, extra airbags and extended 75k warranty. Again Good Luck with the TRANNYs.

Why only 91 octain? Is it hard to get higher where your at?
I found one that has 98 here in Vegas and the boat shop has 102 but its almost 4 bucks a gallon.

You should look around I bet someone in your city has higher octain gas for about the same price as prem.

speaking of which... and I am sure this is why everyone is asking if there is an on/off button... will ZPI stage 0 plus ESK kill ur MPG?

its all in the tuning. if you can get the car tuned right you dont have much to worry about. if tuned right and driven properly(not like a race car drive) you should actually get an increased mpg.

this is quite the anxious topic for people like me :D

i think if i went turbo in general, not just on auto, id want some way to control it all. computer + emanage? something like that. perhaps the ability to turn down boost when it isnt necessary. that and to be able to be on aim and play CS:s while driving ;)

My setup thats in the car should allow you to adjust the boost while driving. Greddy spec II boost controller should take care of that along with the pressure sensor and emanage.

You can only adjust the boost up, not down. The wastegate will control the minimum boost you can run. This can be changed by going to a weaker wastegate spring.
