ok so u buy this engine and u will be making 700 hp or u need to add like a huge turbo or something whats the deal here guys? cause 8000 for the engine and then like another 2000 for a super setup sounds like 10000 for a 700 hp cobalt ??? i have to be wrong here

 

post pics of what you are talking about

 

x2
and 700 hp in a FWD car= death!!

 

its on there website u can buy a crate engine for 8g go on there website and see its under the 2.0 engine list

http://www.jbodyperformance.com/new/...catName=JP0912

heres the link

 

its says it can hold 700hp not make 700hp i didnt read it in depth but its still a good idea

there is actually 2 one for up to almost 800hp and one for up to 400 hp would be a lot easier and you could save a bunch of money

 

ooo ok yea thats what i thought but still like 10k to 11 to have a 700 hp cobalt dam it must hit like 240 mph lol

 

Outta' the box it'll make like 250 maybe... put a big blower or turbo on there than yes.... 500-800 hp!

 

jbp do u install the engine is that included in the 8k price shown on the website because i know u have to take our engines as a core thingy

 

I guess the stuff they learned while doing victory red ss's build they put towards this, huh?

 

I read the mild crate engine is good for 300 whp but people are already making that on stock stuff. MAybe i read it wrong...

 

The wild crate is not for all. We actually don't recommend the wild crate as most people street drive the vehicle, therefore defeating the purpose of having this much power on the street. To have an 800HP engine means that you will be ready for all the quirks and issues that arise with a engine of this power. Meaning, fueling, maintenance, drive-train and yes, the power adder to achieve this power level.

You basically need a lot of money to purchase the engine and the same is said for the operation of such an engine. We typically steer people away from choosing this engine and more adaptively recommend the mild crate. Just because it's mild, doesn't mean it can' t be wild. 450HP is nothing short of an extreme FWD car. The difficulty in handling, launching and again maintenance is there. However, the price increases exponentially when you go above this level.

 

so could a mild engine handle like a s/c system of about 400 hp??

 

Ensure proper tuning, Absolutely.

 

is jbp considering creating a turbo or upgraded supercharging kit it would prolly draw alot of people to the mild engine to if u could get around 350 to 400 hp out of the turbo or supercharger kit

i mean JBP's mild crate engine with like whipple twin screw like 100 or 75 model would be sick and prolley easy to sell as a kit including the mild engine say 5 or 6 grand would prolly be amazing for a fool proof 400hp cobalt i figure wit JBP long history with these engines lol wow that would be amazing

 

i would like to know about the mild... definatly interested

 

lol, not really...probably not possible to hook that kind of power up with our cars...but it can be done there are a few hondas in charlotte that my buddy from there introduced me to..one of the guys..named Darrius was on Pinks All out: Rockingham....he drives a white Honda Civic Hatch that puts out 720whp thats at close to 30 psi though...the beauty though is that at the track at Rockingham that day he was tuned for 15 psi and ran mid 10's....so its all in the set up...its the guys daily driver too.....anyways JBP was building a 750hp motor....no updates but their wiid motor is for sale now for like $8k and is supposed to be capable of 750hp..whether it makes that out of the box I dunno'......

 

how much maintnence with the mild. ANd im assuming we send you our motor to be built, And is the mild good for 8 redline bla bla. How much could we gain if we run stock boost on our eaton

 

maintainence wise, you are not under the gun nearly as much as with the wild kit. The mild build resembled very much that of the stock engine. Keep an eye on your oil level, ensure you adhere to regular maintenance intervals, fuel filter, etc... and you'll be fine.

For 8K, you need a valve train to match, the rotation assembly that we buildwill handle it.

not at the moment, there's no plan to develop a turbo/supercharger kit.. we at this time, are just going to build the engines capable of supporting these power levels.
