Congrats man. Will look forward to hearing more about the kit. Good luck with everything!

 

One piece of advice. Conservative tune.

You're married?

 

don't hate me for asking this....but it's for sale now? i know there's a thread already on this i know it's completed but i didn't know it was actaully for sale as of now

 

Concrats BoominIt! When it's done we have to meet up for you can take me for a ride in it, where are you going to get it tuned at?

 

wow, 3000 dollars for 20 horsepower!!! you can make close to 300 wheel on a stock blower with proper tuning and the methanol setup you already have. what do you do for a living? you must be a rocket scientist or something to be willing to spend that much money for such a small increase in power. not trying to be a smartass but you already made some great choices on modding your car, so why have you chosen to go this route for so much more money and so little gains?

its really not any of my business but i'm merely curious.

later,
vince.

 

because 300 on stock blower is tapped to the max

300 on this blower is just starting, the potential is FAR higher.

 

yup. thats waht it means when i said "my wife"

 

no pics just video

 

whatever happened to people doing research before making a statement? twin screw blowers are less efficent in the lower rpm's and it takes a little more power to turn them. people are getting all psyched up because of the impressive numbers people make on mustangs and cobras with kenne bell blowers and such. the difference is that we have a small displacement four cylinder and the mustangs have v8's with over twice the displacement. so because of the difference in displacement, the motor isn't really affected by the more power it takes to turn the blower in lower rpm's thus yielding ridiculous gains. i do not see this setup ever making more than 320 without serious engine modifications.

just my .02

 

Hope all goes well for ya ...U2 billy . Cant wait to see the results and if my own personal theories hold true .

 

didn't someone already explain that although there is a higher parasitic loss on the ts, that it is only ~10-15 hp max? or maybe i'm just pulling **** out of my ass....

Why would you need 'serious engine modifications' to yield more than 320hp? makes no sense to me....

 

Well, I could sit here and argue all night long on this lovely theory, but the true tuner would actually know that it's not all about the numbers for one. At least not the numbers you're looking at. I'm looking at displacement 1.0L vs 1.2L and the increase in CFM's I get from that per revolution. The thermal efficiency is also another benefit, but hey you just stick to your guns bro. I'll do the testing and tuning with all my add-ons and we'll see what blower really shines in the end. Not to mention the fact that we've barely scratched the surface with the amount of CFM's this thing has the potential to put out. In fact the only reason I didn't go turbo for the extra CFM's was the fact I wanted to keep my car a SUPERCHARGED Cobalt! To each his own I guess.

 

Agreed... I don't think I would purchase this for no reason. More flow, cooler temps, more HP/tqlbs
It takes 2000hp to turn supercharger drag cars, but you don't see them complaining about robbed hp. Who cares about 10 hp...
This is only the beginning of power yet to be unleashed by this twinscrew!

 

well i wish everyone the best of luck with this setup and just so everyone knows, my name is Vince not bro.

whenever i win the lottery i'll be going turbo with my mods and we'll see who makes more power across the rpm band.

 

aww snap

 

Sorry if you took offense to me calling you bro. I'm from New Hampshire orginally and we use that as a friendly term. But if you prefer Vince, my name is Billy.

As far as the turbo argument goes, we all know an adequately sized turbo will outperform our twinscrew. I don't hate turbos considering my Integra in my sig has a nicely matched 16G on it and the entire kit was fabbed by myself. Plus, it hauls some serious a$$. To each his own though.

 

nice to meet you man and you are correct, to each his own

 

yo bro, i call every1 bro, impossible to know every1s name

 

all i have to say is keep us posted on what happens cuz im savin for the screw and lookin to get one in the spring

 

I'm definitely trying to get this before the end of the month. By any chance, does anyone know what psi they were pushing with it? and what injectors they were using?

 

~20psi, 60lbers

 

Roughly 20psi depending on Exhaust setup and alitude.
We're using 60lb injectors on it.

 

beatcha to it rebel

 

thanks a lot. and this kit doesn't come with the 60lbers right? also, the tune they used with hp tuners is extra? how much extra? sorry for the questions, it's just that my searching isn't coming up with these answers.

 

250$. Look here...https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/deleted-threads-89/twin-screw-1200ax-group-buy-68750/
