I just can't wait for this damn turbo to get here, gonna rip the whole car apart since I need to still replace the thermostat (btw it's a complete bitch to get to) and replace every exhaust gasket so it's gonna be a fun weekend project. ****'s gonna be a monster though when done

first goal was 260. hit it with the 3.06 stage 2 pulley
second goal. 270. hit it with a 2.8 and 42's
third goal. 280 with a 2.7 and 60's hit it.
fourth goal 300. pulley size will remain unknown![Very Happy](https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
the power is there, you just have to work with the motor to coax it out

Screw that. The jacking continues. We need to keep this alive until Paul has something important to tell us. Until that time, I will continue to ***** his thread. Or not, I'm kind of in and out of it today.

I will agree yes, it's easy to get power from this car. I will also say I'm the idiot that broke and went down the wrong roads to get there in the end! ![lol](https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)
Area, you made 300whp? You motorboating son of a bitch! I want details!

There's your foot steps on the ground...
Here's me following them.
I found a Garrett T3/T4 60 Trim turbo, INTERNALLY Wastegated, NEW, for $400 (I can probably coax him down to $300). I just need to figure out what manifolds I wanna use (I was thinking about trying to find a wrecked Solstice or Sky 2.0L and taking those mani's), get a better job, figure out WHO can tune it good for me, and then get to work.
It doesn't help that I just asked my woman to marry me, and we're looking to do it in October. Major Bank killer. But we'll see. I'd like to have this done for the Summer. I like go fast.

Area, I'll e-torture you for the info! Don't make me go there buddy!
Better yet let me go get my bargaining tool, the M107 .50 Cal Sniper Rifle we have in the armory! If that doesn't make you talk, then I'll pick up some C-4 on the way!
Just playing bro, but seriously... ![Guns](https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/images/smilies/guns.gif)

I doubt you'll get the LNF manifold to fit. They had a lot more room to play with, given the applications it's used in currently. I doubt it'll fit back there. It's worth looking into, though. That's a hell of a deal on the turbo either way. If you end up just saying, hell with it, and want to spend the money, Hahn's intake and turbo manifolds are solid pieces...
I know, the Hahn's are nice. I'd really want one. BUT, the Hahn intake... if we're thinking of the same one, I've heard that that style doesn't work with the Stock ECU... or at least that's what they said in the GM Build Book. I wonder.................

See that's what I was wondering. The manifold on the Cobalt SS/TC should be the same as on the Solstice GXP, right? SHOULD BE... I guess I can always just take a look when i go to the Auto Show at the end of this month.

The GXP and SS/TC are most likely different just because one is FWD and one is RWD. So I would think they'd be different. But It's really hard to say.
