so i may be better off just going with something smaller like that 60-1 ptrim t4 driftmotion turbo for a faster spool? the guy at dm said it would probably be spooled up by 3500. maybe with some headwork it could be done a wee bit faster

sounds like it's time for wife version 2.0

the electric autometer gauge they use oem in the cobalts is a pretty dang good one. it only goes up to 20psi though, not sure how much boost you're running

the liquid cooling i was reffering to was the liquid to air colling systems that consist of a heat exchanger, aftercooler (pretty much a heat extractor with fins) that mounts inside the manifold, it circulates and looks just like an additional radiator. the water injection is just additional...

thanks for the info, i will definitely hit you up once the engine is put back together. for that 67mm turbo, do you know where it spooled at and what brand/specs it was?

uhhh lol. yeah i'm not used to the air to air stuff. we use liquid aftercoolers on our blowers. they definitely don't get that cold... sorry for not knowing air to air got that cold

spraying alky injection in the intake after the intercooler would probably drop air temps about 50 additional degrees. i've seen a 60 degree difference on a turbo motor before with nothing but water injection. the cobalts have about 5 billion sensors... (have an aeroforce gauge which is about...

it may be the 4th from the right... i know it's one of those cause i read it in the manual. i'll go check later or something

i think there's a 90 model tt, white around here that's been sitting in storage for like $2k or something. supposed to be real clean but don't quote me on that, i'm getting the info from a friend

thanks lol. yeah i'm not looking to make the 1000whp fast and furi0s supra. i figured i would do something a bit more realistic like 500whp + nos seat covers and 8" tach on the dash to make up for the additional 500whp. on the serious side, that's great news to hear it's common for them to...

why not run meth/alky/water injection instead of race gas? it's cheap as hell (after the kit of course) and i get no kr with that running, the same as with 108 fuel in my other car. i can't believe more people don't run that here, especially being a turbo engine. would probably drop ait's...

yeah... i figured "the plate in the engine bay on the firewall" would be specific enough. internet > my judgement

read the user manual the other day (yeah yeah i know) the plate in the engine bay on the firewall will tell you. if the 5th digit from the right side is a "3" or a "5" it has lsd. example: xxxxxxxxxx5xxxx = lsd xxxxxxxxxx3xxxx = lsd xxxxxxxxxx7xxxx = no lsd

is he getting that with spray or just turbo? and for the piggyback/standalone, which do you and your friend use? i won't ever pretend i know much about tuning cars. the mechanical part is no issue, but tuning is just beyond my level and i would rather pay someone to do it, than risk...

yeah it's expected. but you also must consider that alot of money for work on one of these cars is fractional of what it cost on my cobalt. $460 for labor to change the clutch + if i want a clutch to hold a measely 260tq, that's an additional $550+$120 for internal slave cylinder. cost $750+...

shooting for a minimum of 500 to the wheels i'm in the process of figuring out what i can skimp out on and what i can't to get the power. my big issue is that there seems to be no mid level internals. it's either $1000 for forged rods/pistons or crappy cast that won't hold crap. i would...

yikes! if your interior looks bad, you might as well have the car looking bad with it missing + 2 points for weight reduction:

hey nice to see some ky people around. i'm down in somerset, just picked up an mk3 last friday and doing a full rebuild on it. i am having issues finding someone who will be able to tune the car once it's finished being built. does anyone know of a reputable place maybe with 7m experience...

glasspacks sound great on my friend's srt4's. just don't be a dope and put them at the end of the exhuast. mount them as close to the downpipe as possible. then you put a nice 4" rolled exhaust tip on the exit out the back. glasspacks were not made to be installed a few inches from the...

the turbo should kill alot of the sound, but to each their own
