Thanks for the suggestions, help, and understanding/clarifcations to everyone in this thread.

I'll add egt to list when i start the build thread. That and 3in zzp header downpipe combo and 3in cat.

As to my driving, I drive alright... not the best, def not the worst but of course just opinion. But it could be related not knocking the possibility.

 

you guys are so sexy when your mad.

 

You mean you're not parting out?? lol, and I really wanted your HE...

Hope it all works out for you! Just please tell me you won't take it back to that "shop" anymore...(you know which one I'm talking about).

 

That shop probably the best bet with the most experience with cobalts thanks to me and a few others that went there.

 

damn derrick now its back to square one again. so u figure out a price range of how much this will all cost?

 

Yes I did. And I didn't fully tune his car from the ground up, just made very minor changes to the tune he came in with.

 

i said that because i didnt want to see this thread become a flame war but since u posted this i have to question it....


are u back pedaling to save that ur tune didnt do this or are u ripping people off for a half ass tune?

 

no derrick really did get a tune by someone else n didn't do a good job like he wanted so thats why he got steve to tune it so its the way he wants it.

 

Tis true. Or else my all stock motor would gone "BOOM"

 

understandable that u would want a new tune if u felt ur old tune was bad...but ive blown my lsj..twice...this doesnt happen over months and months...the tune was on his car for 2 weeks (im guessing) which with a tvs all it would take is 2-3 hard pulls with alot of detonation to blow the ring land...

nice of u to join the party brotha...wheres my bowl of 30 sauceless hot wings u owe me?

 

Damn I Wonder What Could Of Caused It
Sux Though Man
Just Get Better Internals And Go Turbo

 

true that

 

he will prolly stick with his tvs tho. he already spent alot on that sc n tranny. so he prolly wont go turbo.
his car is quick tho when it was running.

 

Agreed...many people are blaming the tune, but if your exhaust doesn't flow, it doesn't flow. Tuning can buy you time, but you're still going to pop sooner or later.

 

could it really be tha exhaust? cuz it could have a restriction right?

 

its not the exhasut by itsself but possibly a contributing factor

 

anyone else see the problem here besides myself?

 

bad grammer?

peak hp looks like it came on early. mybe ran out of fuel up top? and boom

 

the power numbers suck :P

ur not gonna run outta fuel on the 80mm...

 

meh nearly a stab at it

 

i'll tell u what was really wrong with it...the engine...its an lsj...ive seen other engines run a m62 on a third of the pressure get more gains from it with no type of cooling solution running 200 degree iat's and have higher compression pistons

 

i blame hte intake mani and ports on the head that are the size of ur pe***

 

What the hell does XM radio have to do with any of this!?!?!

 

I see a force fed baby farting out of a straw.

GMPP exhaust... WTF?

 

yay alpha's here...becoming an ol regular party and ****...
