ZZP Builds The Best LNF Mod Ever!
Vapourware comments are funny but at the same time indicate how much people are eager to get their hands on this kit and how much they will be pissed if it does not come out in a reasonable amount of time. I remember years ago at one time Hahn kept promising to release a turbo kit for the LD9 Z24. They even had a prototype car and an artist's sketch etc. A couple beta kits were released (i.e. Bob Mull's EvilZ24 iirc) but after a while people stopped talking about it. I'm not sure if they ever did release a real mass produced kit.
I had there S262 kit and its was on the money - as advertised - 380HP & TQ..
I have worked all the bugs out of mine finally but i'm out of fuel pressure on full E85 and can only hold 50% throttle and it still goes in reduce power from low fuel rail pressure
Did you guys come out with the secondary injector kit yet or know of a way i can get this straightened out? On the upside I'm flowing over 50 maf lb/min @ half throttle lol so i know its gonna be a monster when running 100%

I wont get into details but I've talked to some pretty big players in the game and they said they have had nothing but problems with the EFR's ..
Granted some of these are 1400HP+ applications for rally cars and what not but even one of the main companies who makes turbine castings for BW said they just got the EFR figured out to where it's not having catastrophic failures and blowing the wheels apart/bearings.
Just what I've heard from the horses mouth ...
Not that I wouldn't mind having one but it will be nice to see the longevity and multiple track days put on these things .

Anything is possiable but my car is a DD and barely gets pushed and its lucky even to get on the thruway once a month. I only put about 1000 miles on it since i got it back
So if i break it i'm gonna be pissed Edit: I would like to see the thread of the guy that broke the shaft on the EFR so if anyone has seen this or knows where to find it post or PM me. I heard about this but can't find any info on it. thanks..

So after some thinking, asking and plotting, I've decided to get a ZZP EFR after some time. I'm gonna wait until some of you get some and see how it handles then I'll get one. I was considering cams and zzp valve springs (still getting springs eventually) but the reliability is questionable. So I feel like a ZZP EFR 6258 is good a mild performance increase and reliable.
I think I'm gonna do it.
But I'm very indecisive so that may change in an hour.

I am still on the fence as to what I want to do, swap or cams. I would like to tell people I am still on stock turbo though.
I don't have any real good vids yet cause my car needs more fuel pressure
I have another vid i took today of just daily driving it but people will just talk **** that its slow.. The whole point of it is to show how quick it spools and how nice it drives as a DD and i didn't take it past half throttle the whole vid. If anyone wants to see it let me know?
