Cobalt ss turbo rare

Whos car?

 

What proof is there that there is a LNF swap in that car? No pics of motor?

 

If he did do it he is about stupid a turbo swap would of been cheaper and gavr him just as much hp.

 

Was unaware that the supercharged cobalts had traction control as stated in his ad! Lol

 

so it has the LNF motor w/ a SC or TC? i dont get it. if its just has the stock turbo what was the point in a swap?

 

itz a local

 

dafuq?

 

im saying itd be a waste to swap an lnf motor and put the stock sstc turbo in there cause you wouldnt be gaining much power..

 

It had an lsj it now has an lnf.

 

yeah but i assume he put a big turbo on it? or maybe he just needed a new motor and put an lnf? doesnt say in the add idk, hes asking 16.5 firm..

 

I hope he's better at motor swaps than his punctuation.

That being said, there has been a LSJ to LNF swap done by a member on here out of Houston that also happens to be a hell of a tuner

 

That guy is a member here. He had a whole thread about him doing the swap. You guys are all new or something? Have I really been around that long? lol.

After looking through a couple of your join dates, Id say a few of you missed that thread
He had to replace EVERYTHING to make the LNF swap work and it was very expensive. He replace the transmission, all the way to the shifter and to changing out the entire wiring harness that plugs in the headlights and taillights.

Alot of threads cropped out a year after he did it asking how viable was it to do this swap and he would always answer, just go buy a cobalt SS turbo. He did this back in 08-09ish. Big turbo kits did not exist yet or were in developement.

Thats him. Hes the only one that did it.



EDIT: I might be wrong but I am pretty sure thats him. Silverbullet was his username. This guy says he did the paint job in February of this year, anyone seen Silverbullets car lately to confirm if he did this red on black color change?

 

nice car and everything but 16.5 firm seems high to me i doubt sum1 would give me 16.5 for my car. and i got alot more done to mine with lower miles...but none the less hope it all works out for him

 

Silverbullets' car was Silver though IIRC. or did he paint it that two tone?

 

Needs engine pics.

 

thats what im asking. I know he was the only one successful at doing this. I dont know of anyone else trying the swap.

 

Also, that Clist add was from Pittsburgh. He was in Houston right?

 

"There are some problems with the car, the traction control light is on and abs light which is normal bc of the brembo brakes not being on the car yet.."

So this is cuz the computer calls for brembos instead of reg SS/sc brakes???

I'm confused

 

well he's probably still using lsj axles and hubs. the abs count is different on the lsj hubs so the abs won't work

 

car is still silver. he still lives in the Houston metropolitan area. Still tunes in Houston. Don't know much else as he doesn't really hang with my crowd too much.

not his car, not his city. This is some other individual.

ding ding ding!

 

yupp this guy is from by me and the other lnf swap is in texas

 

Yep silverbullets car still silver and last time I talked to him he wanted to trade for some other turbo car... Idk if he ever did though... And HE DID have the brembo swap done ... He got a complete TC cobalt from a yard and he swapped it all out

 

I want pics of motor area
I bet that wire harness swap was a bitch.
