Never thought about that. Hahaa. Thanks bud.

So I might be getting my motor for my car done this summer. Been doing some thinking ever since that M5 and a bunch of import guys think that it's "just a cobalt" lol. Might even swap it this fall and have a mild tune on it. I have damn near all the parts, ill talk to my buddy whose the tuner and see what he thinks

Lol well, I'm told that my 3076r will shred third since it comes on like a light switch. The zfr can't be much smoother

Matt says he's trying the current ZFR housing so it'll be a .64 a/r right now if that works out for them and I'm guessing it'll spool fast with that sized housing. I'm guessing full spool around 3100rpm

I told you that months ago haha. Local here went through 3 3rd gears with that turbo. Then did an F23 swap. Solved his issue.

I am doing a complete motor swap this sunday into my car. Picked up an LNF motor with only 40k on it for $1200 and its sitting in my garage. Swapping the ZFR and bolt ons over, then dropping it in. The boost does come in pretty quick on that turbo, but in my tune I have it ramped pretty nicely so Im hopefully going to be able to run the stock tranny for at least the summer (whether I have to replace the clutch or not will be the question). Hopefully it should only take 1-2 days to do the full swap over, then I can work more on the tuning of it.

So I've only seen the Tjin trunk on Marks car but then I saw a pic with the cobalt lights and fell in love with it. But Mark and Jon you guys already beat me to it. Should I copy?? So much thinking to do....
