A friend of mine has a tC that's boosted(ZPI stage 0) and has BOTH the ZPI engine limiter and the Ingalls ETD. I'll have to get back to him about in-car vibration and noise but he hasn't said anything negative to me yet about a thing on his car and that's his daily driver.

i got mine installed this weekend and yes there is vibartions but you dont really notice it after a few days. I like it alot works way better then the stiffy, and i think it gives you a better feel for the car.

As i said, after a few days you wont really notice anything differently, and i think it helps Alot in cornering. i alreadey have sways and strut bars, this helped better IMO. plus i havnt had wheel hop since i put it on.

Man im so ____ed at ZPI right now. I ordered my Engine Limiter on May 25th and waited 3 weeks and find out the welder broke a few of his fingers. So i decided to ask for refund and i get and email from Kenny and he tells me he will get that fixed and send me my refund check right away and that was on July 3rd and now its almost 2 months all i want is my money back. Is Kenny or ZPI not working or something or super busy?

shipping has been known to be slow, but just wait patiently, you will enjoy the product.

ZPI is starting to be reminiscent of ScionSpeed

WOW now you know that statement is NOT true bro . They blew their car up, and a few customers cars have blown up too. At least keep some truth about them up and running. Don't mislead people. It's just not right .

LOL I was joking. But on a serious note, when you are not handing out ZPI t-shirts for free, do ever pause and think to ask Kenny for compensation? You know, people get paid rather well in Public Relations.

Has ZPI blown up their car Personally, Sure, during the time they were testing the limits of the 2az, and finding where it is weak. They have done it plenty of times, how else do you find the weakest links, by pushing the limits.

What Whocares is referring to, is customer cars blowing up due to faulty equipment (i.e....wastegates getting stuck, over boosting, causing the motor to go kaboom). To which I'm going to have to say the rarity in that far supersedes any other turbo kit manufacture in the business who actually "pushes" the 2az motor to the limits.

That's not what he wrote, so basically I called him on it.

yeah I'm kinda wondering what's going on too. I ordered mine last Thursday. I know it hasn't been 2 months, but I haven't gotten any response from them either. My card has been charged and everything... Anybody know what's going on over there at ZPI? kinda sucks...
