this'll be cake hun!

with the PR we can run on your engine, and some FP controls work, we'll be able to run a rather small/vary responsive turbo and still hit your HP goals.

i think i'm more excited then you are!

Does painting the turbo or a supercharger, cause it to retain more heat?

while any surface coating will effect heat retention, not all coatings cause an increase. its more based on surface area.

but the coating on the turbo isnt paint, nor PC.

as far as the turbo, i know there's colored ceramic coatings...idk if there's a candy purple though, but maybe its something to look into (performance benefits too!)

If you are comparing LSJs, we are making about the same power turbo only that he claimed turbo/nitrous, so I'm not sure where your statement comes from. More importantly, those are LSJs, and this is an LNF. We already made more power on my LNF last year than he has ever claimed with his turbo/nitrous LSJ. Furthermore, the LNF is the difficult car. How much power is he making on LNFs?

FWIW, my statements are in no way slamming 06black. He seems to know what he's doing and deosn't personally get in here and talk crap when someone recommends ZZP. My statements are merely a response to ls1fbody's statement that he is making more power than we ever did, which is false.

Rissa- good luck on the build if you move forward with it. I think you would be better suited to work with us since we have gone through the headaches and spent months learning how to get these cars to make a lot of power with as few down-sides as possible. That is not to say that others can't meet your needs, but I will say that there is no possible way for you to complete a build in 2-3 days making well over 400whp by going anywhere else but ZZP. If you work with multiple people and shops on a colaborated effort, be prepared to have your car down for weeks at a time. I'm sure this will change in the future, but we are currently the only place that can offer a quick, successful build on your LNF Cobalt.

No worries Matt, i've got respect for the quality of work you guys do. it always looks nice in the end, and you make the numbers on the track/dyno that others merely talk about.

i dont always agree with the way things are done, or ZZP's thoughts/input on things but thats just how life is.

I'm simply getting the parts together that she'll need to get her car to the level she wants. with my own touch on the manifolds, turbo, ect.
unknown to her, I've been in a few talks with some shops out her way that i've done some development work with. that way i can at least set up the install or bits of fab work with some place i trust and thats relatively local to her. I hope to minimize the downtime.

this is just the planning phase rite now, as you guys know there's lots of options and variables to consider.
