1.8 zzp turbo set up is on the horizon

[mitdr774]

Having been in more than a couple car communities that dealt with ZZP, that $4000 claim is most deffinately subject to change. Unless you have a contract that clearly states that is exactly what it will cost and lists the exact parts you will receive, expect things to be different than claimed by them.

What they did to me was make an unauthorised change to some parts and shipping without even asking if it was okay prior to shipping. The part description and picture were very inaccurate and to remedy the issue they took it upon themselves to make an unacceptable change. Their proposed solution was for me to ship the parts back to them and have them fix it, on my dime.

I am not the first or last person that they have done things like this to.

I will say my ZZP Failsafe had to be reinstalled and ZZP did it no charge, of course. But I should also say in the aftermarket industry a planned price point will be elastic. Plan on it.

For those who may not remember, I am the one who said ten deposits was a non happener. (I made that word up!)

People being scurd. You here people wanting it but when its time to pay they back up like its to much lol. 500$ is low as hell and people still playing hard to get.

Make the kit yourself it will be cheaper in the end and you know what parts are going in it and you'll be able to keep with your 4k price point..


I'm building my own kit using most of walkers parts.

I would not even attempt to do it myself without having stronger internals made. I'm not keen on being that guy to figures out when the 1.8 goes boom. So it would not be that much cheaper.

But that's what you all are doing with this kit. So your saying if zzp built the kit and while they are building it and testing it and the engine blows your not going to buy it? Guess what you would still have to buy it cause of the deposit you put down.

And this is the reason why nobody will get one everyone is being a girl about blowing up the engine if you can afford 5k plus for the turbo kit you can afford a $500 replacement engine.. Internals are already on the market for both the 1.8 and 1.4

They would blow up the engine and figure out how far you can push. How is that not helpful. I would like having a safe zone listed. So I know when I would need to spend money on the engine to go further. I'm not saying I don't want to buy it I'm saying I don't want "my" engine to be the test subject lol. Unless there also are posted failure points.

It's not helpful each engine is different. Let's take the F20 engine some have pushed it to 500whp stock everything some have only made 400hp and blew it. Same goes for the LSJ it's just no safe zone when it comes to mods **** just happens.


Edit... I never noticed you had an auto your issue isn't the block its your 6t30 the case is weaker then the 6t40

We pulled the plug to many backed out. On the road now of piecing it together.
