If any water gets in at all from like a puddle or something will that affect the turbo.

Well, if yo see the chart, it's only @ 7.5 psi. I'm guessing for more power, you might want to upgrade your internals (pistons, crankshaft, ect..). I think anything beyond let's say 8 psi will blow up?

I think he was talking about low as in clearance/ height.. not WHP... Most whp of any turbo kit on the market.

Opps.. My bad. Anyway, was there any attemps to make more HP than it's current status? 180 WHP is not bad for a 1.5 lt engine.

Do you mean by ZPI or another company/ person?

Cause ZPI ran theres at the track on 12 PSI/ roughly 230whp and snapped there axle cause Mr. Strickler launches his car's like a bat out of hell.. but this was also on drag radials and he said if it were a normal street tire.. it wouldnt have snapped..

I have really only heard of one custom kit in P.R. that mad like 180whp.. not sure what PSI or any other info.

Posted in a similar thread, restated here now knowing tht ZPI started this threadWhat i need to know is this

1. is the turbo placement on the 2006 xa identical
2. how will sand and snow affect the turbo functionality concerning placement
3. Are you running zpi's base map, and how if so what is your a/f
4. will a koyo radiator have enough clearance behind the intercooler.

What it seems like is the same placement as some of the porchse(i m tired and cant spell porsche right now) setups. I have never bottomed out, so im not concerned, but the elements of nature concern me. I am sold on the kit and am grateful for the base map for the 2006, just sell me on the issues above.

Thanks eddiewinslo

Just realized that a hydo sheild(scotch guarded a couple coats) should provide waterproofing

That low clearance under the car may cause problems when going over large speedbumps or speedhumps. Let me know when the kit drops to 2800.

The xA kit is adifferent it will be released in a few weeks.
Sand and snow will not affect it, if drive the car down the beach maybe i really have no idea we lack ocean in KY. The air filter
Billys car was tuned by us
You should have no issues with the koyo

It should also be noted we did move the wastgate as it was the lowest point on the car...IF fusion post some pics you will see the entire assembly now fits up in to the exhaust hull much beter. We can offer a skid plate for all you off roaders

Sorry didn't realize this question was directed towards me.

As ZPI stated above they tuned the car, my a/f's are like a normaly boosted car... idel..14's, in vaccum partial throttle low 13's to low 14's... when i start to boost is drops into the 11's-10's and WOT 10.0... Better safe then sorry.. Car runs in vaccum like there is nothing done to it.. a perfect little econo box.. that is until you get on it and the boost kicks in and throws you back in your seat.. then it's a beast..

I put a Weapon R CEL eliminator in and my CEL went away for the cat deficency... It only comes on after I boost hard for "to rich" and then goes back off after the a/f 's go back to normal. Unless you are not running a cat like me..then you shouldnt have to worry about a CEL being on all the time.

It is for a manual or an auto... As for the WHP.. ZPI dynoed there first kit with no emanage/tune and got 180whp out of it... So I can only imagine that this kit is atleast 175-180whp at 7.5 psi tuned and turbo relocated... I know the auto kit running at 5.8 psi feels to me atleast 150-155 whp.. cause I own another car that has 140whp and xB pulls way harder than my other car.
