Well, In 6 months Ill be doing a custom ZZP Stage 3. I plan on getting a slightly bigger turbo then they offer, more fuel delievery upgrades and a larg fmic instead of their water to air ic. My goal is to hit 350-400whp with that set up. After that I plan on building the motor, pistons, rods etc etc, and turning up the boost...My ultimate goal is to make 500whp.

I'm not starting this build right now because I go away to basic training for 3 months and after that advanced training for another 3 months. Im going to be a mechanic for the Army

I've honestly always wanted and STI or EVO making big power but they just cost so much more to own than a Cobalt. Insurance alone will be huge because im 20. So its just much more practical for me to heavily modify my n/a SS, soon to be t/c SS.

Theres no way you can do a Custom big build for 2 grand. Im not buying anything used or off ebay which im guessing you are. I have the funds to buy all new parts, so thats what ill be doing. Like i said its a CUSTOM ZZP Stage 3 set up. ZZP is happy to do more than Stage 3 if th customer asks.

The other member on here with a boosted 2.4L is ZDEUCE. He has a custom GT30 set up.

Good luck with your build man.

I dont know.. **** the inlet tot he turbo only has a hole a little less than 1/8th in diameter. runnign a -4an line in and a -8an out.. this si pissing me off. I tohught it was my engine at first but the plugs were 100% clean. no sign of oil burning in the combustion chamber. so that leaves the turbo leaking it somehow. any ideas?

blue smoke out the back, some times lots of it after sitting for a long time at a redlight then taking off, but once I have been driving for aobut 30 seconds there is nothing..

spark plugs are clean ruling out engine damage
