Is There A ZZP Turbo Kit for the 1.8 Coming?

[laborsmith]

On their facebook page ZZP is asking for a show of interest in a 1.8 turbocharger kit. Most of the responses so far seem negative, but there are a few positive comments.

Ya I posted up on there cause of all the negative comments.

They just told me that they have no plans for boost on the 1.8

Maybe some of my conversation while there Monday had some effect, although I was suggesting a supercharger. It looks like they have a lot more space since they partially moved and that might make it more efficient/easier to develop things.

I think if I was gonna spend over 2 grand on a turbo kit id just trade in for the RS sedan. Having a turbo kit without a full warrenty seems a little iffy.

I highly doubt it will ever happen.

In reality there are only a hand full of people going to be willing to pay for it. Give it a few more years as more used sonic come around and are more affordable to some people who wanna mod them

It may or may not happen but I have spent enough time at ZZP to opine that it is more likely to happen than not. One reason: they convert oem supercharged vehicles to turbocharged, a seemingly small market I am sure.

Another reason: as more used Sonics come around people interested in getting one to mod will probably look for kits already on the market and installed.

I emailed them and they told me they have one in the works. No idea when it will be available or the price

I don't think they know of they are gonna make it yet

 

[thatchickk]

I hope they do. I love my sonic. They aren't making the inferno metallic orange anymore (from what the chevy website says) plus I've got my halos and my spoiler, but I want turbo so bad!

My guess, it's still to small of a market

Interested persons could contact Tom Knight at ZZP Performance for an update. That would make sense since ZZP has asked for a show of hands.
