As for the smallest pulley, that has yet to be determined. See, all the info you see about rpm's vs heat vs efficiency is based on prolonged Boost duration. To me, in a average run, you are only exceeding those limits for less than 2 seconds in the average 1/4 mile pass!!
What is more important is where the LSJ is happy, ie; no return HP or TQ rise per pulley size dropped. Eventually we will reach a limit where it takes more power to turn the smaller pulley than what it gains. So far, a 2.5 still improves both!! Just need bigger injectors

I dunno about everyone else, but I'm definitely excited to see what will be happening in the next few months. W/ the GM kits out, INTENSE, Rev it up, Hahn all going their own routes w/ the Cobalt/RL this is definitely and exciting time for us all....it's just being patient that sucks lol.

Remember, MPH is HP, ET is traction and TQ
I've shown this in dyno testing, I keep gaining TQ but not much HP, hence the better and better ET but the MPH is staying about the same since HP is staying consistent.

I hope you are just trying to over simplify things and just not doing a good job.
Congrats on the time.

did you have to machine it down for the 2.7 and 2.6, i thought 2.8 was as low as you could go with out machining it.

Rob, outstanding driving, launching, and learning. You do the Cobalt community, Hoosier Performance, and INTENSE proud everytime you knock down that number. Keep it up!

Also, skewing the maff past 20-25% gets dicey at best
