Looking to get a tvs anything i should know!?!?!??!

ok planing on going tvs wondering if there is anything i need to know

any problems with the tvs? do they come with supercharger oil?

i want to run E85 on 80lbs injectors do i need that added fuel pressure thing?

most of my upgrades are 2.5 will i still run good with exhaust and intake

what hp gains can i expect from this upgrade and running E85

also what the lowest pulley i can safely run on the tvs with staying with 60lbs

also need to run 2 steps colder from what i understand?

You wont make big hp with out increase the octane rating of your fuel. So you need Meth injection with a high ratio of Meth to water or E85.

Not on the stock pulley. You will need it on a 2.9" or smaller.

no problems
i went from 260 to 320 with a ton more room to go with just my meth setup e85 does better
ive got 60lbs on mine and i run a 2.8 but i only run to 7k and i have meth to pick up some slack on the injectors but again i can and will run this further into the rpms with out having to go bigger injector.

id suggest instead of getting 80s just get the fpr it works

im running 1 step colder plugs but my car is a bit different.

just be warned this tvs is a crazy beast

The TVS is a badass setup I would just keep the 60s they should be fine and the smallest I would go as far as pulley size is a 2.8 thats whats Ive seen people with and it works great..

im running the 2.8 with 60s and meth(80/20)... im only seeing 15.4ms being pig rich and 85% duty cycle..but a 2.7 is possible on 60s. as long as you have methanol.

I'm always curious when it comes to TVS threads. I'm not trying to offend people by the following, just curious. Why is it that everyone always shows a hp graph of 290ish, and Bryan (Area) is at 350?

Are the tunes that far off with those who aren't tuned by him, or what is it?

I'll say it again, I'm just curious, not trying to **** people off. Cause I know how you all get when someone mentions Bryan.

People expect a simple swap of blowers to equal MAD POWERZ!!!1!!1!!!11111!!!

The problem is there is tuning and supporting mods to be considered. People expect it to add tons of power without putting effort into it. That's what this cobalt community wants, huge gains from little input..... It doesn't work that way

his car isnt on the stock pulley and he doesnt have to pay to tune his car. he sits on it all day every day and tunes and tunes and tunes. he has the means and the software and hardware to monitor everything that the car does all day every day. he also knows what he is doing. and he takes responsibility for what he does.

so if he breaks it he pays for it. most tuners who tune others cars keep themselves in there own safe zone so they dont have people looking to kill them for a broken motor.

anyone can make 500hp once it takes skill to make it consecutively

It must depend on tuning, with Area tunes, I had 60's and have 80's now the idle was never an issue ever...unless I did something dumb like forgot to hook up the boost solenoid connector or whatever...or needed new spark plugs

I am getting PO301 for injector one missing at idle.

I have cleaned them and the whole nine yards of swapping coils and injectors.
