JBP Vortex header
lulz, I have a tripod already there buddy. But when I'm carrying it around for half the video, I'm not gonna sit there and screw it onto the tripod, then unscrew it when I wanted to carry it with.
I'm not "promoting" this product. I'm not saying " HEY GUYS COME BUY THIS HEADER." I simply posted a video of how it sounds. If you don't like this header, then why did you even click on the link?
I have read over many threads about this header, and the general consensus is that if you are shooting for over 300 WHP, then this header isn't for you. Well, until I tear my motor apart and build it, I'm not going over 300 WHP, so this header will work till then. And by that time, my Cobalt will almost never be street driven.
And just because I mentioned flow doesn't mean I'm obsessed with it. I stated that simply because I have seen people stating that this restricts flow, and I clarified that it did not restrict my flow.
But go ahead and troll, because honestly, your just fueling my fire. My car will romp the **** out of 90% of the Cobalts on here in about 3-4 years. So let's see who's laughing then.

Buddy you don't know the first thing about modifying cars. You know how I know? Because you put a JBP header on your car.....
People swap out the M62's for turbo's because turbo is just a flat out better way to make power on that platform. Spend all the time and money that you want on your car. Truth is, you'll still get walked by a TC with a tune if you keep the M62 on there.
I am telling you right now that your car will never be faster than the majority of the cars on here because you're 6 years late to the Rodeo. Whatever you want to do, it's been done, and there's a good chance that 06blackg85ss was the one that did it. So instead of burning bridges and talking ****, maybe you should ask a few more questions to the people that KNOW how to make power instead of thinking like you already know it all.
I am however interested in this magical header you speak of. Please tell us how you plan to make 2 flanges and 4 pipes perform sooo much better than anyone else has in the last 6 years....
But enough talking, you put your car together and in 3-4 YEARS if I don't have a wife, 3 kids, 2 dogs and a mini-van... I will gladly show you how much faster a mildly modded turbo car is than your fully built M62 powered car.
Oh, and your car sounded like **** before because you've got a Flowmaster muffler on there. Buy something that is built specifically for your car and you'll be happier..

Just because I'm late to this show doesn't mean I should get all this hate. Yeah, it's an inefficient header, IN THE LONG RUN. For now, it makes virtually no difference to my car's performance.
And yes, I'm aware that the Flowmaster is the cause of most of the rasp, and should be replaced with a more "tuner friendly" muffler. But a muffler is a muffler when you are working your hands to the bone just to make ends meet.
And I honestly don't care if your turbo Balt is any faster than mine. That's why the 90% was put there. you would be one of the 10% if it was faster. And honestly, with the work I have planned, I could hit 400 WHP without the supercharger.
But I'm done posting in this thread, so say what you want. I won't even read it.

Talking about an aftermarket turbo there buddy, and a non-stock tune obviously. Bigger turbo= higher lag. Not saying it's a huge amount of lag, but it's there. I've gotten a 5 car jump on a tuned '04 STI. Why, you ask? NO TURBO LAG. by the time he spooled, I was in third gear. From a 40 roll BTW.
When he started making false claims and trying to balloon himself up with what he's going to do in the next 4 years, that's when it's fair game to light this kid up.
If you base your car selection on the people on internet forums, you my friend are the biggest moron on here

See, this is why I keep most of the **** I have planned under wraps. Yeah I know plenty about modifying cars. The only thing I don't know about is the tuning aspect. Never got into that whole deal. I put in this header because it's a DD and I'm looking for sound more than power at the moment. When the time comes to build it(aka, when loan is paid), the header will be coming off and replaced (possibly by "custom" header, like stated before, might not go through with it, depends on how I feel and how the header market is at that time).
