Ah, the beauty of a cobalt rebuild. Nothing pleases me more. Well, maybe a 69 superbee restoration.. Mmm.. Jimbo, your project and Victory's are my fav projects on this site right now. Goodluck and update often!

well just started my purchasing, i will be installing a g85 tranny, exedy hypersingle clutch/flywheel, new motor(mine blew), cutom fabbing a turbo kit. just ordered a turbonetics t3/t04 hybrid 60 trim with a .63 a/r. i'm having a custom intake manifold fabbed up similar to the hahn one, scrapping the whole air to water setup. allready have all other supporting mods including hptuners.
just wanted to let everyone know
i will be posting up pics along the whole process and provide updates

thats all fab time^^^^^
i had 8months into my 300whp tune on the blower and i know i'll have even more into the turbo tune.
i'm a perfectionist when it comes to the tuning side of things, when i say its done, theres nothing left to adjust for any benefit.

it will probably take me quite a bit longer, cause of the tuning. that and when the car gets on the boat to germany in may, i'm gonna have to retune for the change in climate and elevation.

update
ok so the new motor and trans are in and she is pulling strong as hell. i must say the g85 tranny make a huge difference. but now i can get started on the turbo build as soon as the exhaust manifold comes in.
