GroundZero LIM

I have searched and searched, most everybody says it is a great mod. Well, I procrastinated long enough. I want one, however, the issue at hand is they discontinued the LIM? I have sent xcessive a PM, but have yet to get a responce! Regardless, has anyone a clue if they will be remaking the mani anytime soon?

Anybody want to sell theirs?

I wasn't sure what section to post this in, I choose this one(obviously), Mods If I am wrong, I apologize now. Please move to correct forum!

Ty

I'm just curious at what power level people usually start to worry about opening up the LIM. Anybody know?

Last I heard they where still making it. Check out www.groundzeromotorsports.com and give them a call directly. Ralph (Xcessive) is pretty busy, and doesn't always have alot of time to check PMs and stuff. CJ

Edit, the number is 503-256-3278. I highly recommend it.

Thanks,

Ty

I believe I was one of last ones to get a Xcessive LIM from A-spec...

An alternative might be something I was kinda' looking into once is making your own LIM. After some research I came across some good leads if anyone is interested.

Why would they stop producing it

I've got a sweet-*** ceramic coated GZ LIM hanging off my motor and absolutely love the way it cleans up the engine bay (any added performance is great too)

Looks like pineapple racing might still have some. If you get a hold of blake on this forum or just give pineapple a call they will be able to tell you weather they have some in stock or not.

Does this LIM actually make more HP for single turbo 7's? Or does it just balance the air compaired to the stock LIM?

Ok just got off the phone with Blake @ Pineapple. Here is the deal:

Xcessive Motorsports no longer makes them BUTTT Xcessive manufacturing does.

Since pineapple has a partnership with both of the guys that did the molds, they can still get them. Currently their stock is sold out, but Blake said they can get more Monday. He also mentioned the guy that has them has quite a bit so you should easily be able to pick one up through Pineapple.

503-233-3878 press #2 and talk to Blake

Here is the link for oil pan/manifold

Dang it! I was going to pull off mine, and start the bidding at 1k. Good to hear. Hopefully, oil pans won't be to far behind. CJ
