Wideband???
So I am buying a 2010 Cobalt SS with the RPD. I am having it shipped so I am learning as I wait...did the searches but they are all old and I want to make sure.
I read this car has a wideband already for monitoring the AFR? I saw a video on youtube that shows it reading the AFR...?? So I don't need anything?? No bung and install sensor run wiring etc etc....like in all my other cars? NO gauge etc etc...?? Plan on getting HP tuners...so will I be able to hook it up to do runs to monitor it at WOT...etc... Thanks everyone! |
The RPD displays a whole bunch of things with nothing to buy or install. I bought a RPD 2 gauge pod and I bought another boost gauge so I have my RPD on A/F and then a boost and meth gauges
|
Holy jesus ...............I have owned tons of performance cars and NEVER has any of them with a OEM wideband already installed and AFR monitored!!!! This is rare as crap and AWESOME as hell!!

Ya works with HP Tuners too. I'll forget one but it does: boost, wideband A/F, Coolant temps, IAT1, Baro, Outside temp, cam angles, knock, spark advance, G meters, speed, shift light, hp, torque I forget what else if you ask I'll remember I bet
I owned a GTO, SRT4, Corvette and BMW M3....None had what this has...and this cost 1/4 of the price of some of them.. I bought this as a hobby car, ...but if I like it enough Ill trade in my money pit.. I am gonna keep this baby forever...!! :twothumbs |

Thant's what I think to it's amazing what you can get one of these car to do if you get a good tune and buy the right set of parts. I want another one so I can strip it and race it

What are your plans for the car? are you gonna put a bigger turbo on it?
By the way guys I think this car did the Nuburgring in like 8:22?? Was that the SC or the turbo? |
That was the turbo in completely stock form so it was down on power vs a good tune and completely stock suspension.
The drive train on the car is amazing while the rest is pretty much a slightly fancier looking cobalt. If you're talking about switching the tranny out you have a few options, your final drive is 3.82, you could grab an LSD F35 with a 4.05 or have one built with 4.45 gears by Powell. Edit: Changed it to 3.82, mine is 3.86 and I always forget. |
Lots of cars have Wideband. You just need means of monitoring it.

Finsl drive is 3.82

Ya it would be nice to be able to customize it more I just bought the extra boost gauge because ours tops out at 25.5 on the rpd and I wanted a meth failsafe too |

No I did I got the ZZP2 gauge plus RPD pillar. If I crash this car the last thing I'll be worried about is getting hit with a couple gauges in the face |

I wonder if I went to Chevrolet and ask them to put in the G85 in my non G85 car how much it would cost me?
Anyone tried that? |
