go sit in a corner and be quiet. your probably ordering you ss/tc online aswe speak cause you think ti makes 270whp stock. OH boy OH boy!

 

Those numbers are BS come on now theres no way GM states 260TQ and this kid gets 307TQ. NO vid to even prove it.

 

even if there was a vid, it doesnt prove his car is making that power. ive been saying since day one on this site that people put WAY to much thought into dynos. THEY ARE A TUNING DEVICE NOT A TRUE INDICATION OF POWER! Go to the track, that will prove or disprove any power disputes

 

It starts at 30mph, look at the graph.

Thats all I'm sayin.

 

i did , how did you knoW? and im sitting in a corner already.

 

THANK YOU!!!!

People with common sense are starting to enter this thread.
















Even though I still think the track they run at is built in the twilight zone. lol

 

Not really, proper break-in has a lot to do with compression, if you can make more compression than another "stock" car, you will have more power. If you don't break it in well, you will never get a good seal on the stock rings, and the car will never be 100% of what it could be until the motor is rebuilt. Thats where some of the "factory freak" cars come from, just ones that are making 10-20 more hp than others.

 

then you didnt see my 1/4 times in comparison no need to debate that in this thread. PM me if it really interests you that much

 

ItS all lies!!!! I believe NOONE LOL!

 

All I've seen in terms of actual research (ACTUAL, not 'I break it in this way and it works') is about oil consumption, not power research. Breaking it in under hard conditions will wear the rings too quickly and lead to more oil burning (which theoretically would effect compression as well if it was bad enough and you blow through the oil film during combustion). However, the research didn't have any sort of way to make a 'factory freak' and concluded that to properly break in an engine you do it at low BMEP. (brake mean effective pressure, basically load)

 

Sounds like BS but he did give a chart, which i could make one for my LS using paint and photoshop, but if he really did get that much power out of it with the few little thing that he did I'm pretty impressed... but oh well i think we need to just move on



video found on you tube... still no numbers, and the video ends just as soon as the pull ends

You should retitle this thread "Taking the Turbobalt to the failno."

 

I agree, its time to just move on. There really is no way to tell for sure if he is BS'ing or not, even tho it does seem hard to believe. There really is only one way for him to be able to prove without a shadow of a doubt that his car is running that well......get a vid of him at the track, and him holding a sign up with his cobaltss.net screen name writin on it, which lets face it, he's probably not going to do.

 

Christ man you know turbo cobalt aren't going to be making those numbers.

 

that's where my car comes in lol. Proper breakin is key, no one ever listens to me.



and damnnit phil I knew you'd be in here starting trouble

 

::shrugs::
okie dokie

 

Im not going to sit here and do a debate. plain and simple.

If anyone is in CO/Nebraska with a turbalt. Hit me up we will go to Bandamiere race track and do a heads up.

Im gonna take it to bandamiere but my #'s will be lower as at 8,000 FT its around 1 sec diff then sea level.

So instead im gonna go to Track in CO then im gonna take the car to NY in July when i go back to visit some family and ill do a sea level run. with vids and pics on youtube.

And im gonna swing my by old buds shop and hit up his 2wd mustang dyno.

Then from there on, im gonna get into doing some mods to the car. DP,50 wet shot and then ill post up them #'s ' Ill even make a vid of car dynoing and move on over to the dyno pc while its in action ' for you hating people

The AFR was off in graph due to the wideband being push in exhaust against exhaust bend which caused a bad reading.

also. here is a quick vid.

SICKKKK Nitrous man Fast and Furious styles!!!!!

Couldnt show the computer graphs in the vid?

 

computer was behind me.

next dyno ill hold up a sign that says ROCCO is insecure and then show the computer


*** for the 2 people who called the dyno shop today, feel better?
Owner of the dyno shop just called me and said he had 2 people call regarding my car & asking questions.

 

if it was making that much power, it would be running low-mid 13s in stock trim.

good luck with that.
track is gonna show you how real your numbers are.

run a 13.4 stock and ill believe those numbers, and ill quite happily eat crow.
until then, thats a mighty friendly dyno.

307ftlbs? please.

 

Friendliest **** ive ever seen haha 47ftlbs more than rated stock?

 

Got some $ to toss up on the table? $500?

 

Hence why I said, "It seems hard to believe". But I'm also not gonna sit here and call the guy a liar. I dont know him, or much about the turbo cobalt's. But I will also say this, its one of those situations where I'm gonna have to see more proof in order to not be skeptical.

 

did the car ever get dyno'd?

 

oh sure. im gonna put 500 bones on something you could fake a thousand different ways.
just take it to the track, run high 13s, and be done with it.


and before you get all butthurt, consider what would have happened if an LSJ came on here,
and posted a "stock" dyno showing 250hp, 270ft/lbs of torque.

i mean, what did you expect, everyone to gather around and say
"teach us your breakin method yoda?"
