Cooling mods required to pulley down to a 2.9
I was wondering if getting the ZZP S3 HE would be enough to slap a 2.9 on my SS/SC, would I be able to just put a 2.9 on my car or would I have to buy other things, mods in sig
I'd probably throw an exhaust on at the same time to free up some restriction

and I'm running a 2.85" and it does alright.
But I dont do alot of raceing.
I think the ZZP HE would be enough. Was thinking of throwing one on myself
this spring when the weather starts heating up.

Alright haha, I would honestly get one just cause they look badass, does anyone know about a 2.9 working with the GMSII belt or w/e?

dual pass is nothing without a h/e!! dual pass just keeps it cooler for a longer period of time, but if you have nothing to get it cooler (h/e) trying too keep it cooler longer is pointless.....

dual pass will allow you to do more conscuative pulls w/out heatsoaking as fast....(keeping the car cooler longer)

if your refering to the temps on ur dash, those arent the temps that will lower any cause that is ur engine coolant not the coolant for your sc system, they are two seperate systems....., but yes the h/e will recover tems more quickly and keep it cooler than just the stock one alone

Sweetness so just to double check all I need to buy is this
https://www.zzperformance.com/cobalt...=895&catid=188
And this
https://www.zzperformance.com/cobalt...=446&catid=188
and set that to 2.9
and I could install it on a GMSII engine? or perhaps is there a site where I can just buy the pulley instead of that system thing

if ur ordering a 2.9, u might as well just get the 2.8 cause its as low as u can go with out using meth,little more power
ur enging isnt stage two......just he sc part of it is!
all you need to do since u just need a pully and a h/e is buy the h/e frpm zzp and buy th pully by its self.. Cobalt & Ion ---> ZZ Performance
you will also need a hub for the pully!!

He doesnt need a hub for the pulley just get the right pulley that fits on the stg 2 hub!!!!! (These are the ones you want, wont require puller or anything extra)

He has a stg 2 already but only 42 lb injectors on a 2.9 will max them out at WOT. He doesnt want a 2.8 till he gets larger injectors and tuning!!!!!!!!!!

Personally if I was you I would go with a dual pass and option b. Currently I am running an OTTP HE on a 2.9 and I still see my intake temps climb way to fast. After 2 dyno pulls I saw IAT2's in the 160's so I have decided to give OTTP's Griffin HE a chance along with option b.

dont get an option B. Flow through tanks with ice wells are far better.
If you can afford it, get a griffin unit! Those are by far the best h/e's for the ss/sc and you would have no need to run another in-line front mount
