Before you start flaming on I should have gone turbo swapped
Yes I know this
and I'm kicking myself in the ass for not doing so
I'm already so far invested into what I have now that there's no real way to turn back unless I sell everything.
So no flaming

Goal is 400whp

Here's my list..
Ported and Polished head
Port matched intake
Port matched exhaust
ZZP Stage 2 or 3 Cams
82# Valve Springs With Retainers
ZZP Neutral Balance Shafts
80# Injectors
TVS1320 w/2.7 Pulley On Methanol
Full Boltons
LS4 throttle body
Replace 2.5" catted DP with a 3" Catless
Diamond forged pistons (compression ratio??)
and MAYBE, if it's not enough, Return Style Fuel System
Retuned

Attainable..?

I have most of the parts already.
Just came across an amazing deal for the pnp and I can't pass it up.

Thoughts?
Don't say turbo swap.
I know.

 

Turbo swap.

 

heh I <3 you

 

After losing to that 4.9 Stroker Mustang while I was on the m62, I definitely want to come back in a month or two and surprise him

 

Yes attainable. Meth is unreliable though, meaning pump, contoll, lines and ect. Be caustious.

 

turbo or die trying


















jkjk lol


honestly with all those mods you can probably be in the 350-370whp area and thats with a hell of timing and a nice agressive tune. I could be wrong though. am in for updates!

 

didnt a zzp motor make 400 with a m62?

 

My cousin helped his friend with his cobalt ss/sc. I think his final numbers with TVS and meth were around 415whp and he did 11.8 on a quarter mile so its possible!

 

Ive been on methanol since April and I religiously check the system for flaws. I will be on the dyno, and I will be at the track.

We will see!

 

all obviousness aside, i say your 400 mark is def attainable with said mods and a good tune. if not...toss a couple stickers on that bitch

 

Lol

I think it would make me the first TVs charged not on nitrous to hit 400

 

im looking at a similar build and goals.... good to know!

 

make it happen

 

good luck..I cant wait to get my tvs

 

pic up 06_sic_ss lysholm blower.... not a bad choice and good luck with your goals. dont need a turbo swap in my opinion. if you were shooting for power i would say all day go for it.

 

if i didn't just buy a tvs. LOL

 

Don't know to go take the stage 2 cams or the stage 3.
Stage 3 is recommended for TVS setups, but two is for street cars. This is a daily driven street car.. With a tvs. LOL

 

whats the duration and lift of each, i'm betting the stage 3's have a more aggresive ramp rate and will wear out valve springs quicker. people dont realize it but if you're running a large camshaft you have to replace springs fairly often... I'd say get the stage 3's and make sure you're running some kick ass valve springs. Then again i'd also be making sure i got oversized valves and a seriously kick ass valvejob

 

you can still go stage 3 and dd it... its not like its so irriadic it will be undriveable.

 

400WHP is my goal too. TVS will be home next week. I will follow your steps.

 

Still waiting on the TVS , hasn't arrived yet..
Port and Polishing will take place in the next week to week and a half, Gonna do the Intake Manifold (very restrictive on the LSJ) and exhaust side as well, I may need to upgrade my 2.5"DP to a 3" for the added flow, already have a 3" exhaust and a nice header)

Gonna' be ordering the cams/valvesprings/neutral balance shafts in the next week to week and a half

Return style is budgeted for the middle of February

Then tune

 

run some e85 or 110 through it on a 2.6. you'll get there

 

just get the delete kit.

who is tuning you?

 

unsure of who yetttt

what do you mean delete kit? what is this

 

E85 would be great.
However, the cost for E85 on the german economy is ABSURD, and for a DD it wouldn't be doable
