SS/TC Upgrades from Hahn RaceCraft
It's official...we pick up our SS/TC today!
We are getting her from Lattof Chevy in Arlington Heights, Illinois. Those of you familiar with Crate Engine Depot, another fine vendor at this site, will recognize Lattof as CED's home base. We are pleased to work with such a faithful supporter of Cobalts in general and Cobaltss.net in particular! As many of you know, Hahn RaceCraft has led the way with turbocharged Ecotecs since their emergence in the US with the 2002 Cavalier and Sunfire. Along the way, we've raised the bar repeatedly for Ecotec Turbo performance, while introducing hundreds of Ecotec owners to the sublime advantages of Turbocharged Power. Our very first Eco-effort won the prestigious GM Design Award at SEMA, an impressive 12-second, stock engine EcoCav show car that ran 12's with our bolt-on TurboSystem. We haven't looked back since, with more records and firsts than all others combined. We're proud to bring our 20 years of GM FWD Turbo Performance to bear on this exciting new application of the LNF Turbo! We've had a great time with this engine so far in Solstice/Sky and HHR, and now it's the Cobalt's turn. Products we'll offer include:
The goal? High 11's on radials, stock engine, just like we did with our SRT-4. This is going to be fun! |
God bless you!
|
niice keep us updated plz!
|
gnarley!!! cant wait to see the results!!!
|
Nice.. I sent your company an e-mail today wondering when you were going to start supporting the balt since you offer tunes, etc for the other 2.0L LNF vehicles already.
Yeah Haw... |
A nice goal would be a high 12 sec SS/TC for less than $1500 in staged parts.

What is that huge ugly plastic tube sitting on top of the engine for the SS/TC and Soltice GXP?

wow!

I agree. The K04 is capable of pushing enough air to get the tq up in the low/mid 300's at the wheels. Hopefully the direct injection can be tuned effectively.
It appears (and I say this after only reading a couple of dynos) that the tq peak is being managed by the ECU. So maybe bolt ons will have a minimal effect without proper tuning. I could be way off base here. Looking forward to your work Bill |
Im looking forward to the turbo upgrade! The stock turbo is WAY too undersized - it runs out of air around 4.5k rpm...
I just got my car dyno'd this weekend and the speed shop was pushing hard to let them start messing around with trying to tune it.. uh... no. :) They told me this was the first DI car they had dyno'd and were going to use my dyno charts as baselines to compare to other cars (AFR wise) |
Thumbs up Bill.
Ill talk to you on Monday when i call you. |
yea by just takin off the muffler
|
What a terrifying idea, the possibility of a privately owned Cobalt with a Hahn turbo system under the hood. This is terrible, Cobalts might actually become fast. :lol:

All you need from the power side of things is a computer, yes? I would think the stock turbo and fuel system is capable of producing 12-second power. Just need to get it to the ground...
Edit. It was a statement and a fact, this is not my thread, so do not argue - send a message to me if you have a must to.

It is barley a 5hp gain and thats only above 4k from what i seen on dyno testing. You should be banned for trying to ruin someone elses thread ' a paying vender none the less' like you did mine ' |
i dont care if it was jesus christ thread your a dump ass troll

This isnt correct. For a 2.0L motor, the K04 is adequately sized. It's efficiency range is actually quite nice and could easily handle 20psi. Like I said, mid 350wtq is achievable on the K04. |
awesome Bill can't wait to see what you guys do with that thing. I definitely want some updates lol
