Do you guys think it would be worth the $1,850? It says est. 90hp over stock, now i know thats will vary greatly, but what the kit includes looks very promising. heres what all it comes with.

ZZP interchangable pulley system w/ 2.5"
2 step colder NGK plugs
GM shortened belt
ZZP pulley tensioner
Siemens 60's w/ harness
CA meth kit
CA h/e
CA dual pass endplate
Nitrous controller
Stage6 "tune", whatever that entails.

I think if i went this route, then added a 50wet shot and CED's option b i would be in the clear. And yes i know i will need an exhaust and intake and mounts and blah blah blah, i'm just talking about engine right now.

So what do you guys think? And i have a shop locally that can install it all and make adjustments WHEN, not if, they come up.

Theres just so many ideas floating around in my head haha.

 

i personally wouldnt go with the 2.5 iv been on here a while and and seen too many people have problems when going under 2.7 just my personal input

 

No canned tunes!!! Really...it's asking for trouble.

Also, I don't suggest using any aftermarket endplates, that's a critical component for cooling.

don't you need snout machining to go smaller than 2.6 with the zzp anyway? I have to agree here...2.6 doesn't "feel" like a good idea. If 2.7 isn't enough boost for you, you probably need a turbo.

 

haha blue.. hows your car running now?

 

well since it's the interchangable pulley system i could always put on a 2.7 if stuff starts goin bad.

 

^^ talkin about me? fallin apart. s

 

do you know if i could do a custom order and have them leave out the "tune" and have fast98 or someone else on here email me all the files and what not for a custom tune?
btw, what exactly is a "canned" tune

 

just do it! the c/a tune aint to bad..but i wud find someone with hptuners that cud adjust some tables if the "canned" tune aint workin for u...i trust those guys..well i mean iam friends with him and do live 10min away from the shop...but i mean for price its not a bad deal for the hp gain

 

don't do it

 

nah kurt... just saying hows your car running? I havent seen you in a long long time... since tim and all of us went to creve core lol... man that was along time ago.. last time i saw you... you had a nice tune...

to the OP dont do it... just go a 2.8 meth nitrous, dual pass, heat exchanger, 60s, nasty tune, stage 2 axles, hyper single clutch... its the safer way..

 

wanna find me all that for under $2,000?? hahah

 

You do know you can run low 13's maybe HIGH 12's on stock pulley right?

 

I HIGHLY doubt he would be able to.

 

you can get the H/E, 2.8, belt, injectors, tune, Nitrous, and meth for all under 2k...

 

new or used? either way i guess i need to be a better shopper haha.

 

cx racing h/e- new
2.8- new or used
60s- new or used
tune- custom obviously
nitrious- your choice new or used
meth- I would go new
belt- used or new

 

hmm, interesting. i know you obviously can't get a used tune haha. well i guess you could if you bought their pcm. but i'll have to look around at prices.

 

Why is this? is OK like 2000+ above sea lvl? Its been done before, just wondering why he couldnt?

 

no offense but you dont even have an s/c lol, and i doubt the op has the knowledge and the resources to attempt that

 

oh boy

*grabs popcorn*....

btw hes turbo'd... incase you didnt know

 

would i need a belt tensioner along with the stage2 belt or just the belt with a 2.8?

 

i know, whats that haev to do with anything? lol, not trying to insult anyone, but 50 percent of the ppl on this forum cant do it, and the OP sounds liek a guy who just wants to mod the car, and not accomplish NEW goals

 

no i'm going for low ET's, as in like high, MAYBE mid-low 12's not really sure what i want right now. but i don't want to spend more than $3,000 haha. in about 2years, i'll be dumping $50,000 into it. and doing wat vic is, only i'll be staying FWD and single turbo

 

i think youll need the tensioner but dont quote me on that...

 

why waste ur money then if ur gunan dump that much into the car? lol I'd personally start off wit ha faster car, and learn from vic's mistakes
