How much boost can a 2007 2.2 L61 hold with stock internals and properly tuned(once theres one out for the E37A).i wanna run low boost at first the after i get bored which might take oh i dont know a month or 2 build the motor I.E stronger rods and lower compression pistons and good head gasket.i know the stock compression is 10:1 but what can i run safely on it?

 

Cranks good to 600...so build away....all forged u could get up there in numbers

also u can run 10:1 but running like 8.9:1 the tuning will be less of a headache

and low boost wont last long trust me.....i started at 5 psi in my cav....and went up to 12 psi...i wasnt plannin on goin up it just happend lol

 

ya eventually i want to but at first like i said i wanna run low boost since im not made of money.i would like to slap the procharger on and get a tune for it but id like to know what i can run bone stock

 

procharger takes power to make power...turbo is alot better..

bone stock motor dont go much over 220....motors are weak(ringlands especially) stock

 

ya but i can get a fat deal on a procharger.i love friends who are sponsored.plus i love the sound!i love turbo too but just too expensive!and this way i can still run a bov instead of doin the lame m62 swap if i got 215 out of it before building i would be happy

 

but u wont see near the power of a turbo in a procharger....Turbo the possibilities are endless...procharger...like the supercharger has limits....and they suck

 

then ill go to a bigger procharger...lol were pushin 40psi out of an f-3 but thats huge.131mm!!!lol.i dont wanna do so much horse that it impractical!i just wanna fast DD.so next time a LSDUECE gto pulls next to me i can give him a good run

 

put you flamesuit on brotha!

 

i....i dont know what that means?!?!?!im tired!

 

fail turbos have limits to

 

hahaha...here come the SS/SCs to attack...i dont remmeber any of them pushing 400hp...o wait one is WITH A TURBO

 

on the stock engine i dunno how much psi the intake mani will hold, considering its made ouyt of plastic... if you want boost get the 2.4 mani...

 

no ones attacking, ur welcome to be immature all you want tho, until u c what your driving i wouldnt suggest talking down about any forced induction.

 

yea untill u undo 10 bolts and put in a bigger turbo....theres only so many superchargers u can upgrade to....last time i checked no Cobalt has made it to a T88 yet lol

 

if your talking about the m62 ya its limited..the tvs is way more powerful though they still havn't taped it completely you could prob get 400 hp on it but im no expert to say the least

 

yea 2.4 mani FTW...one peice>two peices glued together

 

o boo!here comes the fighting...lol lets keep it clean..lol..i just like prochargers.but like i said i love turbos and if i had money i would def. do a t3/t4 but.....im not rich.i can get a great great deal on a procharger so thats gonna be the route i go.if in the end i wanna go crazy on hp ill go turbo.but for a dd ill do this way

 

anyways........i wouldnt suggest going high then 7-8psi on stock internals. They can run safely at this psi....u can always risk it and go high tho

 

lethalinjectiononline.com,check it out look at the procharger on my friends pro mod. 131 mm i can always cut a hole in the hood and run one that big....lol 40psi


ooh i forgot it take 600 out of the motor just to crank this bad boy
2400 hp ftw

 

very niiiccceee

 

ya its built to run 6.50's but fastest so far is 6.85 i believe due to shitty track and still working on tuning the fuel

 

so your cobalt is his next project right....and ur gonna run 8s right lol

 

ya right im sure he could..lol but no!this is my baby and i dont want to make her a full race car.just a fast dd lol thats funny though

 

well a 10 sec car can be made a daily driver....

 

its not about how much psi a car can handle is about how much cfm it can handle, the blower and the t/c both put out diffrent amounts of air flow

ps-gm rates the 2.2 to hndle 250crank hp on stock everything, now this is of course with a nitrous shot, um sure you can squeeze a bit more out of it, since boost builds up gradually instead of instantaneously, but still low 200whp i would stop and start working on internals b4 going further, also id rather turbo, is funner, but i did see a fox body with a procharger, that blower was f'ing huge
