Ok, I was lookin around on a myspace cobalt group and a guy said that he is buying a stg 3 turbo kit from maximum boost for $3,000.

Well, I went to maximum boost to check it out, and to me, it doesnt seem worth the $3,000.00. 4-5 psi = 40-50hp.

What do you guys think?

 

I dont think those have even been fitted to a Cobalt yet. Hope he's ready to be disappointed when he cant tune it.

 

yeah no pcm tuning... = ****

 

yea, I didn't think it was worth the money

 

MAXIMUM BOOST = SCAM DO NOT BUY FROM THEM THERE ARE NO TURBOS OUT FOR THE COBALT

this is a kit for the cavalier sunfire, and the turbo is a piece of ****...

 

i know that, but I don't think the guy will listen to me.

 

i just posted on myspace as well..

 

oh well then he will be the one out all the money i just read his thing lol someone sounds a little cocky dont even waste the time telling him if hes dumb enough to just order something without even checking around on sites like this to make sure its gonna work and see what people are saying first then hes the dumb one...i cant wait until the turbo that will actually work for our car comes out because no more will this turbo work?? lol yea hes gonna be a little pissed when he realizes it wont work =)

 

yea, its just that i would hate to see a fellow cobalt owner be out $3,000.00 on a turbo kit that you cant tune, that is probably for a cavalier.

 

Maximum Boost Kits Don't Fit Anything. Everything In The Kit Is Unuversal Ebay Parts. Universal=fits Nothing! All Frank Does Is Buy The Stuff, Mark It Up A Ton, And Resell It To You In A Package. Don't Trust Him. There Is A Reason He Is Banned From Jbo And Css.

 

This really is old news. Here is my suggestion. Tell you friend to sign up at CobaltSS.net! You can even get a referral for it! (I'm such the salesman moderator) He can then read for himself all of the bad press that Maximum Boost has and save that three grand.

 

I'll try

 

how many times is this gonna be posted....THERE IS NO ECU TUNE AND THE GUY WHO SELLS THEM IS A FAKE>HE BUYS EBAY KITS AND THEN RESELLS THEM>>>>THEY DONT WORK

 

thank you simmons 2.0!!! i hate to see someone waste that much money too but anyone whos spending that much money on something should research before hand about the product

 

i have a ? if hahn is havin a turbo for the 2.2 then wont they need a way to tune our computers that would be pointless for them to sell and i know they are a big company

 

the turbo itself is ready... it's not being sold because there is no tuning... they will not sell it untill it can be properly installed...

 

BINGO! Real companies, like Hahn Racecraft, wait until they can provide a working system. Fakes, like Maximum Boost, just list universal parts for numerous cars and steal people's money.

 

Comon guys, it isn't fake. My turbo 2.2 runs at 11psi with over 120hp gain. I'm almost pushing 250 horses to the wheels.

 

so how long until tuning will come out?

 

/\ if we only knew

 

so if i was goin to get this supercharger off of a 2.0 it'd be pointless? is there anyway to trick the computer into thinking it has more power? stupid question but i would like my car to be faster

 

give it time... I guarrantee (my spellin suckx) there will be something in a month or so... too many companies working on crackin the sucker to not succeed....

 

your joking right? no way in hell u got a turbo on that thing...well u might...how much was the HOURS of CUSTOM dyno tuning?...what they use to change ECU parameters?....how did u convert ECU to a 2 bar system?....How are u regulating the fuel flow?...i got more want me to keep going or are you gonna put up real posts?

EDIT: Didnt see wink...sry bro...now its funny lol

 

No, im not joking. I spent, specifically, 119.79 hours of custom dyno tuning, hence the 120hp gain. To change the ECU parameters, I used Microsoft Excel. Converting to a two bar system was simple, just chizzle off the unncessary bars. Fuel flow is regulated by a spagetti strainer....

bring on the question, tough guy!!!!!

 

ok fine...where did you put the secondary turbine?....where do the wings mount?...are the wings retractable?....how much flight time is in one tank of gas?...do you serve in flight kosher meals?? lol this is fun
