time for some fuel system upgrades.... hitting 105%idc on the 79's @6600 rpm or so. so This is it at 21 psi for now (on old motor at 22.34 psi I was only at 84-86%idc) Guess walbro really couldn't cut it.

shortened version

nice!

tell your cameraman to put his seizures on hold the day hes shooting your car lol

great vid. bad camera work haha. i got dizzy.

can't really hold the camera steady in the car...... thing is all over the place

Sick as hell man. I think you set the standard for turbo swapped Cobalt's.

How are you gonna fix the fueling issues?

Good lord that is just fricken awesome! Love the part where your buddy was just chilling on the side of and you blow by spinning out of no where! :lol:

lol, might head out today to a better spot for some more vids.

as for fueling issues, adding a bosch 044 inline pump, should help out

Nice the car is beastly. Are you running a return system?

thanks, still running stock rail and lines, just pump and injectors. Definitely needs an upgrade though as Im over 51 lb/min on 21 psi, don't think the pump is keeping up anymore

moar vids.

Not gonna lie. I just got home having worked all night and started watching the vid. The first pull at like 0:48 actually scared me. How much you think you're putting down at 21 psi?

has to be in the 450+whp range, I was making @440 whp on the stock motor at a bit over 22 psi. using 15% more fuel now. I might go dyno the car on the 20th, but we shall see

still slow as a snail ;)


looks good, sounds better.

lol yeah she's slow as hell.

and btw clutch is still holding up fine some how

dyno pulls??

sounds good

Use a Walbro 255 in conjunction with a pierburg inline, you should have have plenty of pressure.

good stuff man :D

Please come to Albany and shit on the turbo hondas up here

Nice sounding exhaust. Who makes it?

awesome Paul, and Bill, good camera work. I want to get my car retuned by you guys. I just put it back to stock

Nice sounding exhaust. Who makes it?

He has the Hahn exhaust

i guess i missed it...what happened to your stock motor? did the factory freak finally go boom?

You using the Walbro 255?

dammit paul..i hate u lol...great work man...

i guess i missed it...what happened to your stock motor? did the factory freak finally go boom?

nah she wouldn't die, finally had the time and money to build the other motor, so I went for it.

You using the Walbro 255?

yeah, she's maxed

I like it! Show the schmeefs who's boss and post more vids all over the internet!

Please come to Albany and shit on the turbo hondas up here

gotta smack up some local ones here first.

just let me know the next time you'll be swinging out my way and I'll take care of ya.

good stuff! definately jealous!

I hate you... for teh soul reason that you just keep making me want to go faster :)....

Well.. i only hate you for it because it costs money :( lol.

lol I hear ya, this build took me 2.5 years to finally get everything together (and 2 weeks to complete). I started collecting parts a few months after I got the car.

You could have edited that video down to about 30sec...

well donate some free time to me, and I will.

I thought you were running hahns manifold with dual injectors? That's still not enuff?

I dont think hes running the port fueler.

great vid. bad camera work haha. i got dizzy.

:lol:

they're in there, but not hooked up yet. never got the rest of the parts needed.

well donate some free time to me, and I will.

It would have taken less than 5 minutes to do.

exactly..... give me 5 minutes free time and I will.

nice paul..seems like traction got better..LOL..dyno it yet?

exactly..... give me 5 minutes free time and I will.

:rolleyes:

Stop posting on here for 5min and there ya go.

video has been edited, link updated

I feel sorry for the cameraman, he had to wait like two minutes for you to make the first pass.lol

Glad to see you're still pushing forward.

lol it was longer than that. I missed the turn around and had to go a few miles before I could turn around again lol.
This is only part 1. much more to come once I get the fuel system ironed out.

We have got to meet up bro. Maybe I'll find some time to head down towards you sometime. How close are you to Newburgh/Poughkeepsie?

I need help w/ histograms...

I live in newburgh lol. (well the town of newburgh). Let me know man, I'd be more than willing to lend a hand. We need more turbo balt's terrorizing the streets up here.

heheheh yea mang come down and visit i want to see that manifold :twothumbs

What are your guys schedules like? Work typical M-F 9-5 or is it spotty. I'll see if maybe I can find some time soon...

I work mon-fri 6:00am - 5pm get home @6:45pm saturday and sunday's I usually am home working on the house or car.

yea i'm around on weekends sometimes lol i i'll probably be around the next 2 weekends

i work 930-630 m-f

My wife and I were supposed to stay home this weekend and take a break from traveling. We'll be driving to Pittsburg, Dayton and Toledo from the 19-28th of this month...

I'll see if I can talk her into a trip this weekend or a trip after work sometime next week. If not, I guess we'll just have to wait until July to meet up.
:(

no rest for the power hungry...

lol so true

this saturday I'll be at e-town watching some 8,000hp monsters make noise, be home rest of the weekend.

Paul, quick question man. Where is the main grounding strap for the block at? I had some weird shit go on with my battery going dead on me all of a sudden.

Paul, quick question man. Where is the main grounding strap for the block at? I had some weird shit go on with my battery going dead on me all of a sudden.

umm you talking about the positive stud on the alternator?

If that's where it is then yeah. I did the routing for the dual pass and option b on saturday, and I did remove the alternator. I know I put it back the right way, with the grounding strap and the connector in place. I had a po562 and 621 show up yesterday while driving, and the car pretty much didn't have any power for anything in the cabin. I was lucky to get home just before the power steering stopped working. But if I leave the car to sit for an hour or two, it'll start up. The battery is only two years old, so I'm going to take it to the dealership today, and have one of my boys look at it. You can see everything dim, the lights on the gauge cluster and the temp controls, my radio quit altogether and the abs light came on, along with the power steering loss. I'm just trying to figure out where I should start.

save for later.

sounds like it's an issue with your alternator .. make sure the alternator studd is on tight i had issues as well when mine wasnt super tight

I'll do that when I get home from work today. I didn't want it to die on me while driving on the freeway. I'm just hoping the most I'll have to do is recharge the battery..., again. Shit like this always happens when you're almost done with a build.

Paul, what time do you think you'll be home from E-town Saturday?

Looks like the wife has plans to go out w/ a friend that night so I could come down Saturday afternoon/evening to meet up...

shouldnt' be too late. Probably leave mid qualifying or so. Pm me your number and I'll hit you up on my way out.

ok paul well after watching some track vidz from zzp from their 2.4L turbo balt putting down 356 whp and 319 wtrq.. i can't wait to see your car hit the track.. but something tells me .. you might be kicked out lo

zzp ran a 12.11 at 117 on street tires.. maybe DR's but they're on ss/tc rims which are their normal rims

lol I'm still debating on how hard I want to drive the car. I'm still a tad worried about the transmission holding up to 500+hp and slicks. I'll definitely do one ballz out pass though, need to fix my shifter and replace my clutch switch first though.

http://www.cobaltss.net/forums/showthread.php?t=175306 with a 2.4 :)

yeah crazy shit. I dunno I"m thinking auto swap maybe....... eh fuck it, I'm done with this car. Time to start playing with the soon to be 800whp rx-7 I have sitting at bills.

haha wow yea i see the thread now ... paul just one 1 11 s pass then call it quits lol if it happens to be a low 11s pass thats good too lol

Sweet vid Paul! What camera is that?? really good quality on it.

panasonic HD, don't remember the model at the moment. it's nice, it records in 1080i the edited video is actually pretty dumbed down resolution wise, I'm not good with video editing and couldn't figure out what file type to convert it too.

That's the plan. I really don't plan on "racing" the car anymore. That's what the RX is for. Shooting for mid to low 9's in that thing.
