Hey guys,

I am going to be putting a procharger on my 2.2 in the near future (like 6 months or so) and that will be going along with forged internals and a host of other mods. I will be trying to make 300Whp. For a little extra fun I want either a 50 shot or a 75 shot. that and I want to surprise my dad. he has an '07 ZO6, will I beat him? No, but I will surprise him by not being killed as bad......I think.

I will only be running like 8-10 psi, with 10.1:1 compression. I will be using the 2.4 intake manifold from CED. can that manifold handle the boost and a 50 or 75 shot??? I have read several times on here that the stock set-up can handle a 75 shot no problem. thanks in advance

also, what would be a good system or kit to use for my goal. I know I want at least a 10lb bottle. and a dry shot rather than a wet shot.

 

If you want to keep up with your dad, just get a bike and destroy him

 

actually I almost did, I put $500 down on a GSXR-1000, but I am only 19 and can't afford the insurance. I am in the Coast Guard and we are required to do things a little different insurance wise and I just couldnt afford it. yea, that was the plan, I saw a GSXR1000 (2007) with just a slip-on muffler run a 9.3, I about **** my pants, then I really **** my pants when my insurance quote came back, looked over at my cobalt and shrugged my shoulders in a "alright I guess..." kind of way

 

You'd **** also that a 'little' 600 is only about a second slower.

You can get liability insurance on a bike and owe on it...it IS NOT against the law...but heaven forbid you bin it.

Also if you have never rode before a 1000 is a poor poor choice

The thing that will hold you up with your 2.2 is lack of tuning, and that is where it will get very expensive...i didn't mean to sound like a suzuki salesman up there


But overall I bet it will cost you a TON less and four wheels moves the body...two wheels moves the soul...I cannot wait for riding season

 

Ya my dad and I want out on our bikes a couple of weeks ago.. Then snow! ( ducati 1098 and ducati 999)

 

1098 is a pretty sweet bike...999 is too...too bad the service intervals are so often.

My Gix doesn't need the valves checked/adjusted over I think?

The 1098 doesn't need a damn thing...it is sweet the way it comes.

 

so does anyone have any suggestions for my OP?

and later I had a lot of people telling me the 1000 would be way too much. but if I get one now I'll get a yamaha warrior. very comfortable and still sporty. but insurance is much more reasonable.

 

what is your reason for going with a dry nitrous shot? all that is going to do is complicate your tuning

as far as manifolds go, both the 2.2 and 2.4 mani are plastic so i really don't think there is any advantage to going to a 2.4 one

if you're going to be building the motor there is really no reason why you can't push the limits a bit more...either run more boost and stick with a small shot or keep the same projected boost levels and run a bigger shot (like 75-100 shot)

 

the 2.4 is a one peice manifold where as the 2.2 one is two peices glued together (if i remember right), the 2.4 is stronger, and ive heard the 2.2 manifold has a spot where n2o likes to puddle

 

blah its still plastic...its not going to stand a chance against a nitrous backfire any better than the 2.2 one.

besides, i don't know of anyone that has experienced a nitrous backfire unless they had a malfunctioning window switch or simply sprayed down too low. never heard of it happening based on design...it really shouldn't be a worry for the power levels 2.2's are looking for.

 

ok thanks guys. I wasnt looking to get the 2.4 mani for strength, but for performance. I am building up the motor to make over 200whp NA and using the supercharger for the difference to get to 300Whp.

a dry shot seemed like an easier set-up to me. Is there a good wet set-up for my car?

 

probably wont happen.. you'll need to be able to tune .. granted the gt tuner is out but you'll need cams ported head all bolt ons and upped compression its gonna be really difficult to run 200 whp na on a 2.2 especially if you're looking for using the same setup as boost

 

yea, I planned on using the head from patriot performance and blower-grind cams from Comp Cams. 10.1:1 pistons from wiseco, this isnt an NA build though. I want to make 300Whp by building up the motor and getting HP where I can. Not 100% on what supercharger I will use though.

 

what supercharger or procharger are you going to use?? me and you pretty much have the same goal....to get more power keep me updated on your build bro
