i enjoy these little arguments, i always learn something from them so by all means keep them up.

 

bill, no problem.. i give up just my lack of willingness to type.. and besides.. if actually had a technical conversation it would be useless to the forum members.. FMEP, PMEP, BSFC, BMEP, Flame propigation, etc.. you need to think in BMEP rather than torque and horsepower, then we'll 'start' to have a good conversation..lol

I'll save it for a time i feel like typing, i'll let you know and we'll talk

and PS.. the Saab comparison also has some holes for argument 3.55 final drive vs 4.05.. (which goes along with what i've said all along) and the 'real world' fuel economy results are based on 4 people.. hardly a figure to go by.. i can go increase either one right now if i like.. and someone put down 37mpg for one of their entries on the saab..

Anyhow, its been fun, and enjoy your ride on the short bus..

 

Im not sure about the rst of the members of the site, but I am in no way interested in mpg when looking for more power. The only concern I have is how do I want to use this power and where do I intend to make it. Then from there I will choose what fits my plan and driving style best. mpg is just an extra "perk" that I may or may not recieve from my choice.

 

having power and having good mpg's is a huge thing to have now adays.

 

Very true! Below is video of my Camaro from the LSX Shootout in October. Bob

good read... again

 

You are killing me in this thread

 

So what setup would be good if I want to run on the 1/4 mile as well as the autox and be able to drive homw lol

 

i know you will have more control over the centri when you take off

 

exactly right good sir.. you stil looking at procharging cole?

 

I likes me a supercharger.

 

yea, i really am. i seen that you said you were going that route... did you ever do it?
i have only seen one car with it onthe lsj. i know the dyno numbers with stock boost on it. but i havent seen an lsj dyno with one on high boost. i would like to see relsults before i i make my centri/tvs/turbo choice

 

yea i had it on the car for like a day theni had to yank it due to a bracket issue.. i've been trying to pay it off before i put it back on so i can pay for things if anything happens ya know

but yes it'll be on my car in about 5 months or so

 

damn, i really want to do this set up. but im just not sure if the power im expecting will be there. i will be revving my engine out with my built head so im not worried about not revving high enough to make enough power. what size head unit do you have?

yea i have matts old kit .. so i have the c-1 i'll probably upgrade later.. to a .... p1sc lol

sign on yahoo i added you on mine

 

Turbo.. More efficient power.. hence the STS kits for my Trans Am.. huge power gains on bone stock to paper filter cars

 

your comparing apple to oranges with a v8... this is a cobalt forum... last i check we lil 4bangers

 

yes turbos give more upgradability and potentially more power.. me i went procharger to be different abnd be faster then stock.. once I get numbers when i'm done with everything i think people will be shocked

 

HAHAHAHAHAHHA QFTL... Welcome to the interwebs.. where 95% of the info you read is made up on the spot

 

like your 95% statistic?

what did he say wrong?

 

The turbo will make the most power .The procharger would be second,the twin,or roots would make a lot less.Between the roots,twinscrew,and procharger,the procharger would make less heat.So for all round facts they would fall in this orber.#1 turbo,#2 procharger ,#3 roots,twinscrew.
