Well done , i thought about this kit all day and am glad to here that a skid plate can be offered. I am really awaiting the xa kit. Thank you for the A/F estimate. I am sick and tired of knowing that my car has the potential to kill certian vehicles, but no option past boltons

Come on xa kit, i got a nic Sard boost guage sitting on my desk

 

I thought you guys were using a T3? Not a DSM 14b

??

 

Hmmm I am running coil overs and I am low i wonder if this kit would have issues?
What is the installed/tuned price?
turn around time if the car is brought to you to install and dyno tune?
Also just to be clear the car will not throw cel's?

 

Thru me off for a minute, because you changed your Avatar.

They where using a 16G before... But the 14B spools faster and is a better fit for the 1.5L engine.

 

so basically, the onlt difference between the auto and manual kits are the boost levels right? same turbo and everything else?

 

That is correct... and you may want to add a tranny cooler.

 

really good to hear. a tranny rebuild, new tune, and 180 whp is a real possibility. turbo + auto =

 

Right now to get some kits on the road and to get some more third party expirence we will install the kit for 500 bucks this includes a custom tune...we would need the car for 2 days..

Thanks..the car will through a CEL as of now...but after this weekend we may have a solution for that.

 

so you cannot boost the 7.5 psi for autos?

 

ill take some pix when i get outta work, and post it up... kenny did a great job moving the wastegate up, i was skeptical about this part of the kit, but now it all pieces together like it was meant to be... ill get you some pix of it...

 

kep us posted on the cel...it is my road block

 

Is there a dyno sheet for the auto zpi turbo?

 

No.. unfortunatley not. I took it to the local dyno on my day off the other day, but they were slammed packed for 2 days and I was not able to get it done.. But if i had to take an estimate on how it feels.. im estimating in the 160whp range... this is comparing to other vehicles of this size and WHP that I have driven.

 

I would love to see the 14b on the dyno manual or auto, Also since i brought it up, about the CEL

very nice..I also noticed no cel....


There was CEL. Like I said before, if you are running turbo and a stock ecu, the CEL is supposed to be on. Otherwise, youre running too lean. The CEL trips when the ecu sees a fuel mixture more than 13:1 afr, which is still a bit lean for FI. Once you tune the car to the correct afr, the cel will come on. Thats normal.

Just so you can here from an outside source, right billy ;)

heres the link (click me)

 

hey billy what about spin up??

 

What are you talking about spin up?

 

Rollhard is correct... When I get into boost or full boost or WOT... my AFR's drop to 11's to 10.0.. and then my CEL blinks at me until the AFR's go back to normal.. This CEL means im running rich to compinsate for the boost.

My full CEL has come back on.. but I beleive it was due to an oil pressure plug coming undone on me and I havent reset the ECU yet to make it go away.

 

so the auto is going to be quite a bit slower than the manual, right? or can you boost the auto higher making it get around the same HP as the manual?

 

when do you hit full boost?

 

Ahhh got yeah.. Im normally at full spool around 3200 RPM's ... I have had it fully spooled at 3000 thou... So it veries a little bit...but it comes on quick and hit's hard.
