nice numbers man. I'm going to look at a new turbo this weekend I might pick up. Not sure what it is though.
housing has M-11 A/R .60 and it's a garrett dbb... so... need to look at it and figure out what it is cause I got one hell of a deal on it. If so, it goes in Saturday lol

I drive the car 500-700 miles a week lol. plus I work in manhattan, so I really can't go fast in gridlock traffic lol.
Maybe further down the line once the monte is done (5.3 vortech/ electronic overdrive tran's from an 01 silverado) I'll be putting that on DD and probably go with something a tad bigger in the cobalt.
yeah mine doesn't run out up top, I could actually push it a little more if I wanted to. But I don't like using cheap equipment... always ends bad

I'll run ya.
and for the sake of a fairly non-post whored thread i'll say this.....you do know you picked an awfully inefficient turbo set up correct? did you at least spec the turbo per rear mount turbine size formulas?
none the less it'll be good to see another cobalt like me running around up here, what piggy back will you be using?

I run with the AEM fuel/ignition controller. It controlls pulse width allowing me to swap out to bigger injectors.

that may be so, but i like the loud sound of the turbo spooling up from being in such an open area in the back. there are a few STS turbo guys running around VA.

it wont be bad wiring it up. i already know what type of sensors are on the car and right now im working on making a plug and play harness. My dad sent me an ECU and the pin out's diagram to help me with it. Right now im working on un soldering the female connector from the ecu board and re soldering it to the other end of the wires of the aem harness.
