So as I told Mr.Bill on another thread I'm Riding stock untill the cold moves in and my mustang HAS TO stay in the stayble for a few months. Now I've read alot of threads, watched alot of dynos,read alot more but now its my turn to do the deed and heres what I'm looking to do.

-BatmoWheel-
-Porting the K04??(still gotta little more reading to do, links/info welcomed)
-Treadstone Intercooler kit w/ MAF Relocation-
-Treadstone intake-
Now the exhaust is where im hung up and need some advice/help/thoughts/etc I love the Turbo XS NOn Catted DP and FL CB combo. I also get a hard on for Straight pipe from the DP back.. I am caught up between the Turbo XS combo or A treadstone Catted DP with Treadstone NO Muffler 1 resonator CB.. anyone got a sound clip of the second combo tho? I've yet to hear how that sounds Thanks

Trifecta 24psi tune W/ my quick switch mod (see quick switch thread)

So what you think I'll Be looking at if I Beg Trifecta to do an Aggressive tune?

All "i'd do this or I went this route,ect is welcomed I know as a FWD car she will probably be TQ steering like hell but Fug it you gotta give to get..THAKS!!!

 

go zzp for the charge pipes

get a catless downpipe from them too, save money lol

not many people go the porting the k04 mod

def get an intercooler upgrade since the stock one breaks anyway and tends to be a weak link

find someone with HPTuners

dafuqs a batmowheel, sounds like something for the birds IMO

 

-You Saying ZZP's a better Brand/Fitment or just a cheaper but Equally good piece?

-Cattless worth anything real on the power #'s with these cars? I was just thinking to cat it if i go with the treadstone Straight pipe to save my neighbors as I role out for work at like 430ish an the regular lol

-I'd have to recheck but if HP does the "activation by DSC switch like TF then Yeah I'm in but last i checked they didn't please correct me if I am wrong.

DAFUK A BATMOWHEEL?!!!!!! Its like a gift from God for guys who run turbos, read some powerstroke diesel forums oh yeah this one too!!!
https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/2-0l...el-ko4-264753/

Happy reading bro, its long but she's a good read

 

Never did a mod on a Cobalt myself but have heard it's not hard and too much money and it produces one mean fast car

 

You Talkin' the wheel? If so yes they are F'ing Phenomenal!!!! most Diesel truck owners I know Do that mod quickly after getting the truck The Rate at which these trucks hit full boost afterthe install is insane!!! and yea i heard it made these SS/TC's one hell of a Rocket, guess we'll find out

 

nothing became of the batmowheel look into k04r

this thread

https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/2-0l...o-swap-310943/

and get hptuned. trifecta FTL

 

batmowheel showed little to no gains. Just forget it.

 

...... Say it ain't so I thought they got all 10 people required for the damn thing... how dafuk could they not find 10 people.. the damn thing is God-sent..... well that FUBARS that idea So I know there's always been a HP/trifecta "thing goin on but is everyone on a F**** Trifecta stance as of late or something, I figured I would have heard a trifecta all the way stance by now/

 

I've got this turbo with meth on hp tuners it holds boost to red way better than the stock K04 makes the car way more fun

 

yea i saw a dyno graph on the turbo around 20psi i believe but i was hoping for some feed back. really want to see a dyno of someone pushing between 26 to 28psi

 

And so did some reading on the K04r/-/ZFR Found Turbo bay Performance's uninformative site but I like what i read on their K04ftw... is this thing in production yet? anyone running it on their DD? Info Info Info!!

 

Yes it's in production yes I have it on my daily. I'm the guy to ask about it just let me know what you want to know

 

I want to Know Everything Good Sir, Teach me Your ways!!!
-I've soon alot of guys on youtube laying claims of low 3hundered in the power but 405-430 in the TQ department... even if im not breaking 350whp I'd love to see those 400+ tq numbers, would this turbo help with that, anything you dont like, could you let me know your mods n numbers, any sound clips dyno or drive by vids?... YOu cam PM me everything if you dont want certain ish on the boards. How much was the turbo btw, Direct bolt on, like i said I wanna know everything... thanks man

 

yes stock turbo can make over 400tq but you will spin your life away and run the risk of blowing your trans

 

wouldnt focus on torque as much as holding power to redline. i believe the k04r can make 370whp on pump gas with a good tune just waiting to see someone make it happen

 

I'd read that thread there is a lot of info in there but I know it's a really long read. You can break 400tq with this turbo but so far the guys who have dynoed are on a crazy boost ramp or low boost. My clutch is gone and my car is back home (stuck there) so I can not do dynos or vids at the moment. I'm hoping to be in the 375hp range with this one guy has done it with e47 but I only have meth and 94 so we'll see if I can do it also I'm not running any boost ramp so I should have tons of TQ

 

i believe your #s will be really good considering your running 28psi and meth

 

Ya I hope so too. I'm gonna call the shop today and get a plan going so I can get my car next week I miss it. But I'm going big for the dyno I'll turn it down mid range afterwards

 

When you strat Dynoing, doing vids and such keep me in mind plz!! I'm super stoked to start modding in the winter. and where the hell do I purchase the FTWK04? i was on the Turbo Bay site but shiz is like empty... hell yea its a long read, as soon i get the sick kid to sleep that read will take up at least an hour or so... is there an install thread, or another info thread on the turbo, Im looking to take in all i can while i can. Thnaks a ton for the info guys big thanks to you KM, i feel we will be doing alot of talkin

 

I love you sig LOL but on topic do not waste your money on a batmowheel or porting a K-04. If you want more power than the stock turbo but something that bolts on get a ZFR with the high boost canister so you can tune it for 24psi or up to 29psi or higher if you wanted to. Unless you like waiting for weeks for tune updates and sub par tunes (their zfr tunes especially stink ask me how I know) stay away from Trifecta.

 

Ya for sure. Once I get my car back I'm gonna fix my final small boost leak then I'll post vids and screen shots of hp tuners and 60-100 times in that K04ftw thread.

 

Stay away from the batmowheel. Some guys did that, said it wasn't worth it. Little to no gains. Remember this is a lot smaller turbo than those desial trucks. The stock turbo on a tune does around 315whp and 400wtqish. I had trifecta tune on stock turbo, it's ok, runs rich, but hp tune is far better. Take it from a once trifecta fanboy here. A good tuner with hp tune. And ull get a tune with more power and car will run better. And as for turbo. Save up for a Zfr. U won't be sorry

 

I've been waitin' for you to pop up, you sir are...

So you seem to be one Hell of a tuner, wanna feel me in on the "stay away from trifecta" I've read so much on the two but im tired of the he said she said bullshit, I just want str8 up facts n such I'm actually lokking at the Turbo Bay FTW-K04
(THANK YOU KMO43), i looked at the ZRF, and dont get me wrong I make good money, but my fiance sees that receipt, I'll be in a coma till the Rapture..

 

What is your best 60-100 on stock turbo? How about with the big wheel K-04?

 

Going off feedback from numerous forum members Trifecta takes weeks to respond in many cases and it seems like Vince has another tuner or tuners working for him who from what I have seen have no clue what they are doing. On Tomj77's car he had horrible fuel trims and was severly underpowered on the ZFR. He had said it felt no faster than it was on stock turbo. It was likely making around 350whp or so maybe less based on how slow it was I took over tuning his car and now his car makes likely around 80-100 hp more than it did (proper wg tuning) and his fuel trims are near perfect.
