Can we use the N2MB 2 step box for the solstice

[Area47]

zach, it's not that bad really. 4-5 wires at the most. nothing major. im just not sure how it is going to react with the factory crap in there

[hungryhip-ccp]

^^^ wiring is my worst enemy, not that its hard i just hate it. I didnt even break a sweat doing this install... it was that easy.

[mkriebs]

Just curious... how does the WOT box build boost as opposed to the factory LC?

qft.
people dont realize that you must slip the shit outa the clutch to pull a really decent 60ft

everyone just dumps, wheels spin car goes no where. what i hate about this box is it works off of our clutch up switch, so you can be attempting to slip the clutch but it doesnt stop cutting spark till its all the way up, so you cant slip it to fast or it will spin and you cant slip it to slow or it will hit spark cut, its like anything out there you have to "dail it in" whether it be the product or driver input.

OMG people!!!!! If you have a 08 or 09 SS TC you have both NLF and Launch Control. The problem is that most people are not using the Launch Control the right way. At 5,000 RPM you never dup the clutch all the way out at once. If you do that on the street or track wheel spin is all you will get. You need to let the clutch out slow and smooth. Think of it as going from a stop holding the RPM at 2,000 and riding the cultch out. Yes this will ware out the clutch but at 5,000 your car will move faster off the line then at 2,000. The SS Cobalt TC has a heavy duty clutch and it can and will take this abuse. Remember NLS can be done out of Comp Mode. I've played with this at the track a lot and trust me I know what I’m talking about. I will be posting a Video soon in the "how to discussion" soon. Any Q/A PM me till then. Long story short don’t blow your money on stuff you already have.

Like most people Hurr I want to be able to watch the lights instead of watching my revs and with the box you also build boost for the start I am gonna get the 2 step and wot shifting just because I can

[ah665]

im confused as to why you need boost while at the line? if you are fighting traction from the launch regardless, how will that help? why do you need to watch your revs with the stock set-up, when its meant to be put to the floor and regulates it for you at around 5000? with the stock set-up, if you feather the clutch youll get decent traction and buy the time you can even shift to 2nd, wont you be at full boost anyways? i dunno, it just seems silly to buy this and wouldnt that be the reason it doesnt show it offered for the 08+ SS/tc?

[revhigh18]

at 5000 rpms is a little unneccesary like its a joke as area47 put it there is no use for 5000 rpms and who said i was on stock set up?

[phatnackySS]

do you people expect the car to work the clutch for you too?

step one: learn how to launch a car with out launch control.
step two: use the launch control to Aid in lunching the car.

don't confuse anti lag with launch control
you don't need anti lag on that tiny twin scroll turbo especially if your not running slicks, or at lest DRs

the wot box dose seem to work more like anti-lag, with its cylnder shut off and what not.
but if you already dont know how to lanch a fwd car its just gonna make things worst.
how ever the ability to adjust things sounds nice.

leve the anti lag to big turbo awd guys lol

when i said stock set-up i am talking about the factory equipped launch control as opposed to the 2-step aftermarket unit. either way, 5000rpms may seem unneccesary but if you feather the clutch it works just fine. and like i said, im sure there are drivers out there good enough to launch the car without any assistance from the factory launch control or this other box.

learning your car > buying a mod that makes no sense

[revhigh18]

i am going to be on drs and i mostly just want it for show its cool to have

Launch Control at the track is garbage.

What kind of 60ft's are you getting at the track?

[revhigh18]

stcok i got a 2.19

[Area47]

does the factory launch control allow boost to be built?
no

does the n2mb box?
yes

sticky tires
end of story.

[ah665]

i have a question then..i have not ever launched this car with stickies, obviously. if ppl are sayin that the factory LC revs too high and causes spin, even though boost isnt built until the clutch is let out, then how different would it be for the WOT to be at a lower rpm but with boost. plus in that small amount of time that you would be letting the clutch out with the factory setup, the boost will be full-on by the time you even get through the short first gear. so i dont see how the factory setup would be at a disadvantage. its not like its gonna bog or anything. not trying to sound like im dissing the product but i just cant see how the ability to built boost while sitting still is gonna be that much of an advantage?

[Area47]

i hit an instant 12 psi in my ss/sc with the box. the shop civc launches at 15psi at 9k rpms. same with the crx we have.

that second of lag can make or break a 60ft and cost you the race. also. revhigh wants to beat me at the track
lol
