here is my dyno guys
my tune needs some timing added uptop. the exhaust header got white hot after 1 dyno pull. they said that is because of the timing being too retarded and needs advancing... so actually, i will probably dyon again after a tune update at over 250whp (go 2.2 turbo @ 10psi)

that is a ******* disaster.
you could hit that power number on a ****** 16g with room to spare, let alone a 60-1.
i would KILL whom ever is tuning that car, thats nothing more then an eye sore.
the curve turns into a pit on the top end, and you've got some weird spike down low, AND just like i said over and over again the turbo thats not spec'd rite nor is it the correct size is delivering week torque number.
I do feel sorry for you on this one.
regardless if hes "fixing" it, it should NEVER be that bad, a stock tune would deal with things in a neater fashion.

that spike down low was the guy letting off the gas to let the car shift, i am an automatic... remember
no one lives near me to tune my 2.2 automatic cobalt so my only choice is to work with vince in washington to get this issue resolved. i just dont want to reach much more then 250whp since im back to a stock 2.2 motor.
also the turbo is the exact same as the one on 06balckg85's car. identical.

you HAVE to be kidding me.
thats "fixed" to you.........
the big wobbles in the curve and the dip is still vary much there on the top end, only to end in a spike.
I'd be bitching him out to fix that, theres still work to be done.
you've still got more power to be made!
sounds like it could be her!

if anything, a more solid tune will keep the cylinder pressure spikes down (the bumps in the dyno curve)
and make things easier on the motor, pulsing power like that isnt good on engine internals.

maybe if HPtuners would release support for the 2.2 05 cobalt then someone around here could smooth that out.

saw a guy at OU today (tuesday) with a red ss turbo that parks in the parking structure off of pioneer by varner. he watched my car pull out and leave in the morning around 11:50ish.
idk who it was but he parks there like every week.

WOW, We have a lot of OU students with Cobalts. I have a Silver SS T/C and I usually park in the main lot that runs parallel with squirrel. I also saw a Blue SS T/C in this lot.
