I'll plug it and dyno if you send me a SC to test with. I'm sure as **** not doing it to mine because I don't want it on my car for any length of time. I think the 'performance gain' people notice is a placebo effect, which is why I want to know if anyone has actually tested it.
And FYI, just because I don't post here with the intellectuals that say 'lol that guyz a nub' I probably know more about what I'm talking about than you do, judging by your spelling and "witty" remarks. I'm sure if I went to every thread and replied 'ya dats kool' multiple times like you I could have well into thousands of posts, but I'd be sacrificing brain cells, so I won't.
And thanks for the PM telling me you were talking about me. I didn't get it from the fact that I was being quoted.

No, this has been an ongoing debate on a bunch of forums for a while; primarily if there's a product that can stand up to the abuse the M62 will put on whatever epoxy you plug your holes with, and if it even does anything aside from making the SC louder. Again, I plan on doing more research, but I don't see what the difference between JB Weld and the other products are (especially quicksteel). They're both activator/epoxy mixes, and from the product specs they both have the same temperature, chemical, and physical characteristics - so why is one a bad idea while one is cruise control to awesome?

Like I said, I don't hate on people for doing it for that purpose, but some people claim that it adds power. I would like to see some information regarding that, since any cheap, easy, effective mod is quite welcome.

Ah, the "I'm right but I won't prove it" approach. Clearly you have won this argument because I'll take your word at face value.
Show me this information you have, or shush. Cut the derpa derpa derpa - that's why I have so few posts here.

75% methanol
24.99% distilled water
.01% food coloring to match my car and aid in seeing the level in the trunk mount tank...
its also not as bad as it looks i have a awesome digital camera that sees much much more than the naked eye. it looked the same as all the other cobalts i put stage 2 on... (oil amount, not color)
i never thought the catch can would do anything cuase theres no oil in the intake tube so how is it getting by there without leaving a mark...
honestly im stumped as to were the actuall oily substance is coming from, it was like that from the first time i took it off... over a year ago... did yours not have any on it when you put stage 2 on or dual pass?

Well since it increases efficiency, exactly how much HP increase have you seen with this mod? I don't want speculation or butt dynos, I want real numbers.
Also, can anyone give me a composition makeup for quicksteel vs magnum steel vs JB weld? quicksteel and JB weld are both epoxies, so I would assume the risks of using one would also apply to the other, and I can't find anything on magnum steel, but it seems to be the same thing.

Come now children. I remember back in my day when I first joined this forum, someone could make a thread without it turning into a flame war. Perhaps those days shall return eventually

...and, if my memory serves me correctly, it started right after a couple of GTO owners showed up.
Oh, and you should plug your silencers. Make sure you take some sandpaper and smooth out the insides and around the silencers first... then apply the Quicksteel.
Its not a HUGE difference... but it helps to improve the low-end. You build the boost faster and your S/C starts to scream at lower rpm's... and it screams a lot more ear-piercingly... its a lot more intense.

This is great news, I was thinking about doing this to my S/C and once I saw Ebristol do it over on the RFL that made my mind up to do it. And now seeing your thread I have no issues doing it, now just got to get some mangnume steel and a day off.
I also love the way your S/C looks painted black like that.
@Dainslaif
I feel sorry for you if your going off the fact someone has bad spelling as a judge of there intellect. Many great scientes, Mathmaticins, and the such has areas where they where hurting. And just cause one person can not spell does not make them an idiot, maybe they have a disability which prevented them from pciking up spelling as easly as other people. Every think of that "Mr. Intelligent"?

This is the route I would go if I did it. Good call.
I dare you to find a scientific or mathematic presentation document with bad spelling/capitalization. You will have a damn hard time, because nobody would take them seriously if they left misspellings in there, and in the past few years they came up with a novel invention called a spell checker, which works very well. Just FYI - I'm dyslexic and I still spell **** properly, so obviously it's not that hard. You really have no excuse aside from being lazy and/or an idiot.

DO NOT WELD THE HOUSING. You will warp it. Quicksteel is actually the safest way to plug the holes.

Quicksteel is the way to do it. I've got friends who have had it on their Grand Prix's M90 for over 20,000 miles with 2.55" pulleys.
