200hp cruze?
young guy at work has a cruze. nice wheels, some paint and dual exhaust. it sounds nice and looks great.
i had a chat with him about it. he said it has an intake and exhaust and says it probably makes about 200hp. he said he wishes it had a cobalt ss motor in it haha i said.. ya i have one of those. |
Cool...
|
does he have the 140hp or 180 turbo motor? If he is has the turbo one he may think he has 200 hp because of he is counting by crank hp.
|
What 180hp one?

Has a 1.6 turbo listed as 181 hp dont know if its true just seen it posted on there. |
Not in north america. Could a tuned 1.4 make 200hp with just a intake and exhaust?
|
Yes, a 200 HP cruze (at the crank) with the 1.4L turbo engine isn’t too difficult to obtain with a tune, intake, and exhaust system with a high flow downpipe/mid-pipe. A 1.8L naturally aspirated would be near impossible to obtain 200 HP without additional breathing modifications like cam work or porting.
|
the cruze 1.4 is maxed out stock. Modding that motor leads to "boom". Its not a real ecotec. Its a daewoo grenade.
|
Vince at Trifeca has talked about decent HP increases with the 1.4L. I’m sure it’s not as reliable as the 2.0L ecotec engines where users have added 100+ HP to the stock values without problem.

It's a 1.4L that get's good mpgs, provides good power for the size, and gives the user a powerband that is usable for everyday driving... I don't know why you would mod it at all.... But a tune is said to be good
for 180 horse and 200 torque. Or so they say. |
he didn't mention a tune so i'm not sure but im still guessing it's not making 200hp. i'll ask him next week and see what he says.
|
talked to the kid today. he has trifeca tune as well. he says he is a trifecta tuner.
he figures hes making 200hp and 180tq. |
youz trollin the poor lad hehe, setting him up for a smackin.

A 200HP Cruze, not bad he could race Honda's and Mazda 3's their owners think they have fast cars
|
chatted with him today.
gonna post some pictures soon he's got rims, strut bars, springs, shark fin antenna, intake, magnaflow exhaust with rear cat and muffler delete, trifecta tune, 12 inch sub and 1000w amp, tinted windows, rear tails. again i will say the car looks very nice and sounds great. very deep growl and not raspy or wimpy. i told him it's the nicest cruze i've seen. we're probably gonna get some car guys together in the near future. again pictures to follow soon i hope |
I would say his but dyno is a tad off. But ether way, sounds like a cool car.
|
That new 2.5l ecotec would be a fun cruze.
|
well he's just going by what he thinks it has, idk if it not being tuned restricts the power like an intake on an lnf does but if not it may be close.
|
I am really interested in seeing this new diesel cruze thats on its way. I am thinking its got some potential
|
Hey you never know.
