well the 09 we're doing is almost done, Matt I'll let you know if my theory on the whole throttle thing was correct.
I did race it against his Z06 (454whp) and never fell off on shifts we were dead even (and I mean dead even) from 40-140+. This was of course before the trans exploded lol. Car should be back up and running next weekend

Matt, I did double check on the NHRA rules, and you were right on the ET for a roll bar. That really sucks that its so limiting, but its good that they are concerned for safety!
I am still considering a full cage in mine, but we'll see where were at come end of summer.

I Loved my Cobalt SS/TC and all but the numbers that are being put down are way to much for a FWD. I really would not have fun trying to get some type of traction. Now, Props to ZZP for the feat they have accomplished. I wish you well in any further research into the LNF. I Love the LNF I really do, all I wish now is for a new platform for it. Sucks that the only thing going right now is the 2010 Buick Regal and THAT THING IS FWD, ****! I wish, like someone had mentioned before, that we could see something done on a Sky or Solstice or something although traction problems would still be bad, just not as bad. I wish GM would make a Chevy Cruze SS(LNF) AWD. I would be all over it!!!!

Oh God!!!! I'm just going to say that you took what I said wrong. I know that they come with the LNF's, they were the first platforms to sport this engine. The GXP and Sky Redlines were the one that I was talking about. If ZZP could mess with the Kappa cars. Just curious to know.

I know, but from what you can see ZZP has made some good numbers and I'm in the middle of deciding to go with a used Kappa or go with a new VW Golf R. That is my situation. The cheaper route of course would be doing this kit with a GXP or Redline.

But, I'm not a dick like that, and ZZP has been good to me, so I will recommend them.

The kit is pretty much ready to sell. We are working on putting some cool features in the ECM, but put this on hold while Trifecta was closed for a while. We would prefer to install a couple kits here to start out, or at least have them here for dyno tuning. If anyone is ready to drop their car off here for this install, we can do this now. Just shoot me an email to stattama@aol.com or matt@zzperformance.com.
Sending your car to Michigan from Hawaii? I think it might have been the transport company that said no.

You would also want the ECM/tune.
