most reliable way to make more hp
ok so right now im just stage 2 and want to start modding once this semester of college is over and im able to get a full time job. this is my dd so i want to be able to go wot every now and then and not hav to worry about my engine blowing. my plans so far are a header/dp combo, larger heat exchanger, and custom tune for sure, but i need help with my selection for injectors, pulley size, and meth or other cooling mods. how reliable would it be to run 60's, a 2.85, bigger h/e, and a custom tune?
thanks
thanks

How about this for ya. http://www.ottperformance.com/Cobalt...c87a84c1de30f0
theres your 2.8 with 60s and a custom tune. for a BAD ASS price...
An h/e would be optimal for that setup, so check around that site, they sell one which is REALLY nice...

there is a shop with hptuners near where i live so im gonna get a dyno tune there to free up the most hp, but i would definately buy the ott kit if i didnt hav access to hptuners. What cooling mods would be neccessary to get rid of heat soak if i ran a 2.8?

this would work well with that setup, or a nice meth setup if the shop knows how to tune.

im fairly certain that the shop is able to tune for meth, but will ask before i get everything ordered when i hav the cash and time to do everything....would i not have to worry about heat soak and my iat2 stay pretty cool if i just ran a h/e and meth or would i hav to run other cooling mods like a dual pass endplate or option b as well?

run the ottp kit. if u alredy got gm stage 2 . well upgrade to 60lb injectors, and a 2.8 pulley with colder plugs and the ottp tune. and add atleast a heat exchanger and if u have the funds a dual pass or meth. or both? and with ur dp combo u should b at a good set up.
