Picked up this bates hardened oil pump gear for $75. Don't know if it is a good deal or not. |
Heat soaked pull on a hot day. Car is pulling about 4 degrees more ignition timing than it should and making it run rich. Threw off timing a bit trying to adjust for tip in knock in the tune.

That's a lot of fuel and load your throwing at those new rings... What do your plugs look like?
|
Haven't pulled them. Going to autocross tomorrow so they better be ready for some high rpm acceleration/deceleration. I'm not scared. If it blows I will rebuild it.
|
Good attitude!
|
It's not a garage queen. I've put 1,000 miles on it and modern cylinder finishes don't take that long to break in. It'll be fine. You'll get over treating your Cobalt like a fine jewel at some point I assume. Mine definitely isn't. It's made for doing work.

Tuner is fighting flood so had to make due with tune low on ignition timing and running rich. It was running richer than the tune actually would in straight line pulls I think because of the way I was modulating the throttle the intake became "saturated" with water/meth. Anyway it ran pretty well except for those things.
|
Tune has been adjusted and she is now pulling strong with AFR around 11.8-12 in upper rpms. I went out and did these pulls like HGT suggested that I should break it in proper.

0:09-0:11 Sounds like the clutch is going or shifting like that will soon have it gone.

Just filled the gas tank (+82lbs), full interior, and the spare tire stuff - 2,840 lbs. Don't have all that fancy stuff like ABS, and electric windows weighing me down lol.https://cimg3.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cob...2440e526f4.jpghttps://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.cob...e5a386934d.jpg

Nice, id assume mine weighs around the same, maybe 2900 with all the shit ive put on it.
|
You just talking about the weight of combined induction systems and components required to make it work or what else have you added to weigh it down?
|
Turbo stuff, recaro seats, bigger brakes, shit like that

Rig I threw together to try and lower my IAT temps. So far when everything is heat soaked and cruising my IAT1 temp is 5-7 degrees above ambient and IAT2 temp is about exactly 30 degrees above ambient. I idled around town and stuff for a while to get everything nice and hot before I went out for t a drive. Ambient temp is 77 degrees IAT1 was 82-84 and IAT2 was 105 at cruise.

Tune is nearly dialed in this video but we have came a couple steps since this was made. Previously my tuner didn't have certain tables figured out that give him more control over ignition timing and AFR. When it got hot out the ECU would pull timing and make the AFR very rich right around 10. Now that he deciphered those tables I have consistent AFR even when it gets hot out. Right now we have it set at 12 and we'll probably see how it runs in the cold weather before leaning it out to 12.5 since I am on water/methanol injection. Yesterday I did a datalog with the latest calibration and it held 12 and was still running 23 degrees ignition advance and it was 102 out. Needless to say I am pretty stoked because this is the most dialed my tune has ever been and we didn't have to do anything "hacky" to make it run correctly.

nice!

Autocross from this weekend in Heartland Park Topeka. As far as the Engine goes the car ran better than it ever has.

OctoberFast autocross from this weekend in Salina Kansas. For the first run you see in the video some course worker did not understand that the slalom entries were optional for which ever side you wanted to take and called me in as a DNF. I heard them announce this as I finished my run and I was like WTF where in the hell did I DNF and unfortunately this got in my head and screwed me up for the rest of the day. You can see the second run in the video I was driving a little heated upset about being DNF'd on a clean run. They must have caught this in the audit of times as I am sure he wrongly DNF'd many other cars as well. My time from the DNF run was posted as my official best time which indicates they determined I actually did not DNF.
