We took our '06 2.4 turbo Cobalt to US131 Motorsports Park on Saturday to get in some runs down the 1/4 mile. Since we had a dyno tune scheduled in the morning, we couldn't leave for the track until the later part of the test/tune session. Unfortunately the track was also completely packed and we only ended up with enough time for 2 runs.

Configuration was our intercooled S256 (base turbo) at 10-11psi, ZZP exhaust, street tires.

This is the first time we ever raced this car, and the track was pretty greasy for the street tires, so the sixty foots weren't that good.

First pass- 2.41 sixty foot, 13.75 @ 105.9 mph.

Second pass- 2.24 sixty foot, 13.05 @ 106.9 mph.

We didn't get a log for the first pass, but we did log the second pass and found that we could have been a lot more aggressive with the AFR and timing. With a dyno tune and a 2.1 sixty foot, we expect to hit 12.7-12.8 at 110mph at 11psi. After that, we will switch the tires out for some drag radials and turn the boost up a little more.:)

Sounds good. What are you seeing around 250-260 whp right now?

awesome times. look forward to seeing future times

At this boost level, we should be able to hit 300whp, but the conservative tune we are running is probably closer to 275-280.

Sweet Action! Hopefully the boss is going to let me get one!

nice times :)

its about time we got some pass times. :lol: Very nice though. :twothumbs Would it be to much to ask for a video for the next time?

where's the lsj turbo kit..
lol..
nice times though that car sounds beast.

thats awesome!!!

We have a video from yesterday, but I'll have to transfer it when I'm at the shop tomorrow. We will be sure to get some mid 12s videos soon.:)

triple post lol

how much do you have invested in your curent configuration?

It would run about $2700 for the turbo kit in this configuration. Catback would be separate.

^---thanx for the info not a bad price for the numbers

Price is cheap. Times are awesome. Congrats

nice job

what do you think your stage three kit would run with the upgraded turbo im thinking thats the bosst route i want to go

what do you think your stage three kit would run with the upgraded turbo im thinking thats the bosst route i want to goThe upgraded turbo probably wouldn't help much at 10psi. Maybe a few HP at best, but past 300whp, it will start to show nice gains over the standard turbo.

subb

is the tune you are running a safe tune for dd or is it more of an aggersive one

this is excelent to hear.

It's a safe tune. This car was back to NA for a few weeks for testing other parts. The turbo went back on late last week and we used our base file instead of the dyno tune. Shifts could be higher, more timing advance could be run, and it could be leaned out a few tenths.

if i make a trip down from canada to buy this kit from you guys...can you give me a place to stay for a few days :lol:

We could set something up. We have a couple hotels that we use regularly.

kick ass stage 2 is diffently the one im going for

Nice trap speeds

where are you guys located

where are you guys located

they're in grand rapids, mi.

13.0 is great! I wish I could find someone to tune my car that knew what they were doing so I could get some better times. 13.4 is my best but I know the car has more in it if I could get it running correctly.

Can you guys only use HPtuners to tune? I want the stage 3 kit sooooo bad but HP Tuners hasn't unlocked the 08 2.4L yet.

At this boost level, we should be able to hit 300whp, but the conservative tune we are running is probably closer to 275-280.

WOW.

Don't laugh too hard at the crappy launch.:red: That was my first pass in this car.

nice run, that was ur second pass though, thats the 13.05 run lol

are those the lnf turbo wheels u have on?

nice run, that was ur second pass though, thats the 13.05 run lolRyan ran the first pass, but he had to leave, so I ran the second pass.

are those the lnf turbo wheels u have on?Yes, you are correct.

why do the prices seem increase like every month?

edit: read the second page and answered my own question. Wish i could afford this haha

I took this car back to the track to shoot for 12s today, but it turned out to be a waste of time. Since it was raining when the track opened, racing started 2 hours late. We had 2 or 3 rain delays and the track was never very good. I spun bad and ruined one pass. Then I got a 13.1 at 107+ at 9psi. I turned it up to go after 12s, but it started pouring this time and everyone left. All in all, it wasn't a very good day at the track.:(

It's still $2000 for the base kit which is the price we advertised about 3 months ago in the first video. Early customers got even better deals.

Very nice.

You got to hate days like that. Just remember there is always next weekend. ;)

does anyone knows how much is for the turbo kit from hahn???
i wanted to boost mine, at the beginning i was thinking using the lsj m62 sc but there was too many parts that i have too look for lol (for me i think sc is better for the car :D and looks better well thats me), so im thinking going with turbo but not much psi because i dont want to destroy the engine too quick lol
and can i run the turbo without a change of exhaust???

sweet wish you guys were out last year when I had my 2.4 :( but i went cheap and s/c it lol

We switched to the upgraded turbo and turned up the boost a bit. We're expecting mid 12s next time out.:)

why would u could into ZZP's thread and ask about hahn stuff?

yea anyways zzps stage three kit costs as much as hahns kit and im pretty sure it would add more than hahns kit im saving up now to get the stage three kit

yea anyways zzps stage three kit costs as much as hahns kit and im pretty sure it would add more than hahns kit im saving up now to get the stage three kit

ZZP's stage 3 kit is $3200. Hanh's kit is $4200.

see 1000 less and im betting way better gains go with zzp
