Thanks for the input Rival. I would not mind driving to PA seeing as im orginaly from NorthEast pa so i do have family out that way. I tend to like to install my own stuff I love working on my car. Any yes ur right im trying to be patient. As far as the balt man since i saw them online looking for cars i fell in love with that SS model. Ive only had it for a few years now but still im always looking for new ideas/ things to make it better.

to me 350whp would be a bad ass DD/ sleeper

building the kit piece by piece will be more cost effective and can be of higher quality. You get to pick out every piece and can get the exact parts you want. Compatibility will more than likely be an issue.

when a company builds a kit, there are compromises. The good part of it though is that everything is compatible and fits together perfectly.

If you want to get the best bang for your buck, build it, if you want the easiest install and compatibility, buy it.

On to other things,

What are the records for highest HP stock motor LSJ (pump and race gas)?

Largest turbo on a daily driven LSJ?

Quickest quarter mile on a stock motor LSJ?

**********.

the 256 or 259 is definitely an option with a .55 housing. or even a .55 housing on my 262 to save some money. the reason the lag doesn't bother me that much is cause the pump gas just isn't worth racing on. and with the race tune it hauls ***** and makes up for the lag once its spooled. we also still have yet to put a ported head on it, and yes a 4.45 will happen as well. btw when i get you guys some numbers this friday with the car i'm gonna take two 5gallon fuel containers with me and stock up on some 110 and put a gallon in the tank every time i fill up so we don't run into the fuel issue again

is you want reliability then don't go ***** the wall. doesn't mean you can't turbo it. just use common sense and dont try and make more power than the engine can obviously handle. i didn't get solid numbers of what this current engine did but i believe its still in the upper 300s for pump and upper 500s for 110. and i just drove it 1,300 miles this weekend(friday-monday) without ANY hiccups. changed the oil when i got to kentucky at about 400miles, exact amount is in the book. but then i continued on to springfield, mo and then oklahoma. car is running just fine. any tuner will know the limits of the engine. if you want reliability just tell them to back it off a few degrees from what they would normally try and do.

no idea about the hp numbers or 1/4. but i think you have the largest daily one with the 366 since ryans doesn't run then it drops down to us 62mm guys.

lol, I figured I would have the largest DD turbo, but was really more interested in the other 2 records, I have a spare motor to drop in so Im planning on pushing it until it pops and then swap in the other

I got a bad coupler fixed, back up to 24psi, this turbo loves being above 20lbs, car absolutely screams, I had a very pissed off Porsche Carrera S driver chasing me the other day. Took off from ~80 and pulled out by about half car and just kept pulling until the top of 4th when I let up.

kill list is starting to get long lol

hopefully i'll have some times at the track friday. i hope its cooled off again. it suuuuuuuucked not having the car the past couple weeks. weather was absolutely perfect for going. idk if i'll make any passes on the race tune. we'll see how the pump gas goes, should still see some pretty nice times on that.

EXsoccer1921

iTrader: (14)

haven't been able to since the zzp build. still holds the stock blower record at 12.75 i believe. and on the old 3076 setup it went 12.64@114 with a 2.1 60', probably around 305-310whp

gonna make passes on street tires(RE11s) and drag radials. 555r's for now but getting some 26x11.5 et streets

nice! cant wait to see those timeslips. Exsoccer what axels are you on?

Matt M

If you are looking for a track tire, I wouldn't run ET streets. They aren't that great on FWD. ET Drags or M&H slicks will perform much better.

EXsoccer1921

dss 2's

slicks are definitely in the future. but that almost means spending money for 15s. plus don't you guys want to power the fastest DR pass in a cobalt?!?

source to those? price? am just looking to see something better than stocks

Everyone has great vaild points on everything. Much better info here then the SC part of css. Honestly i have gotten more questions answered in this thread then anywhere else lol. Im glad people are helping me so thank u to u guys for helping answer my questions.

and yes my goal if i went turbo would be 300-350 max for power. i know it sounds dumb and very little power but i just want something fun decently quick and something i can go to the track with once a year. That and i like to work on my car.

EXsoccer1921

iTrader: (14)

350 is definitely not "very little power". once you feel it you'll understand why i say that. i thought 273 on my m62 was nuts before i went turbo

YA ss yeller is helping me out we have been pming back and fourth on a parts list i was thinking about going with the GT30RS turbo. Just hard to find websites with good quality parts. Tryed looking on the vendor page here but cant seem to find to many sites besides the Dejon house of poer site an it seems kind of skechty to me lol.

my ideal goal is spend 3000-3500 but wouldnt mind only spending 2500. only thing i have going for me right now is might be able to use my 60lb injectors i have on her now. Everything else is zzp stage 3 and i have a few other mods as well i guess i could sell to help make this build happen. Dam u guys i never should have checked out this thread lol its just making my need for speed worse lol. I almost forgot abou the tvs at this point
