Hey guys. I have no idea how much or how hard this would be. But has anyone herd of anyone upgradeing the S/C? Or even twincharge it. I want to do one or thee other in the spring, just seeing where i should start, if i should just keep the stock one, and mod. But as good and fun as modding is it takes longer than twincharging or upgradeing. Im not sure if this will happen, just getting ideas. thanks guys.

twincharging will be available soon through hahn... not sure of any better superchargers, the problem is lack of space under the hood...

Nope hasn't been discussed before. Pretty sure this is the first thread I have seen on anything like this

ne swap worth wild is the whipple, but this will require customization and fully built motor. twincharge isnt worth it, its s/c or full turbo. do it up

Please show me your engineering degree to back up this statement.

i dont see how it wouldnt be perfect...your going with a total different set up that no one has for one and your still going to run at least over 300 whp thats all fine with me and you have the benefits of both low and high end

id like to see how shoving air past the rotors inside the blower is good for them

I believe that thats what those supercharger blades are for. Also consider that large companies who do turbo charging are working on twincharging and they do have engineers working on the setup,not just people saying it won't work. As I have said before, one time most people said the world was flat, that didn't make it true.

articzap

blades are meant to compress air not have air forced past them...but i digress. twincharging is also wasted power. full turbo would be more benefical

I'm sure victory will change any "nay-sayers" here in a bit. silly non believers

articzap

lol i bet a turbo only car pushin same psi as him will school him

some guy in florida changed out his SC and ran a Kenne Bell SC (if thats not the correct name, i am sorry) - anyways he is putting down 550

costed him around 10 grand though

patathSS

550 hp is for pussies.

I bet you ain't going to be the one to even try.

articzap

i bet i dont even own a cobalt. but i digress. when someone does testing between a built whipple, built turbo, and built twin charge, there will be some insteresting constverty.

twincharging sounds all nice nice. and no offense to you victory this thread is killed because it just got personal because i take it your going twincharging. which is awsome i love people that try new things specailly on new cars because usually and most of the people in the forums or that own ne new car they talk all this **** about how there car is so great and its just stock with maybe air intake or gm stage kits.

twin charging sounds really cool and will give some performance but not as much as i would like for the money spent. your only able to push so much are into the supercharger.

to go complete turbo is cheaper and you can get more power out of. only nice thing with twincharging you wont have turbo lag.

personally i would love to see a bigger supercharger in a cobalt soon. wont add on psi but flow would be better

articzap

proper size turbo wont have much lagg. hell a turbo running the same psi, stock 12.5, would fully spool by 1500 or so if you big the right turbo and will output more hp.

sethallen

could someone put a vent in the hood....like the RK Sport hood, just a little more forward, to create just a little more room for a bigger sc such as the m90???

Off topic, but thats untrue. We have known for thousands of years the world was round. They said the world was flat because of the amount of supplies they could carry. The phrase 'to fall off the edge of the earth' meant to reach a point of no return due to lack of supplies. But carry on.

http://www.automotive.eaton.com/abou...el/091405.html this was posted on the forums under twincharging this is the only way i would twincharge but since gm had to make it a pain in the ass to go turbo or ne mods and butted the supercharger straight up most people arent going to change manifold and a bunch of brakets to go twincharge blowing a turbo into the supercharger idk if it will help in flow of air or psi i dont see it helping in flow since.

Disturbancetkxe

when i get my cobalt i was gunna see if i could grab a m90 off a old ford thunderbird/ cougar. but since i dont own a cobalt yet i wouldnt know.

thats one reason y i love the germans / sweds and ne euro guy because they do crazy swaps and put crazy stuff in there car. kinda funny going to the auto part store with one they ask for a ford part and then the guy behind the counter is like what kind of car you have and they say jetta or bmw. the clerk looks at you all wierd.

articzap

m90 would nto be practical as previously stated in an article from someone on here. the only smart step up for the s/c is a whipple. the m62 can handle puttin the amount of power to the point where the motor is done. the next step is a built motor with a whipple which will make huge gains. turbo or super, both just isnt practical and killin hp.

dont get me wrong victory, ur setup will be very nice but u would have been mroe practical with one or the other, most likely a whipple, and you would have helped designed something that everyone wants, an adapter plate for the whipple on these cars.

think of flow dynamics and how ineffiecent that would be

Disturbancetkxe

i agree i remember the thread about the m90 discussion. It will just add more flow just no more psi. and to get ne higher psi out of it the engine would be bogged down.

also would love to see some one make an adapter plate for a whipple or an adapter to make turbo/ whipple a little easier to choose from period. i hate how gm put supercharger directly on these motors. but i cant change nething unless i help mod it.

2K5SS/SC?

Trav, why did you start another post like this bro? You should have PM'd me again with a question like this. I haven't steered you wrong yet have I? Let me know all your questions, and I'll see what I can do to answer them all.

He's my cousin guys, and I'm trying to teach him the ways.
