here is what i have.

Turbosmart Blue Silicone Turbo Tubing Hose Vacuum 4mm 5 32" 10' Wastegate BOV | eBay

 

If you can afford it and do it properly the first time round then I highly recommend it. Different strokes for different folks. Even with all the headaches Ive had I don't the change over. Turbo is tons of fun and does things and makes blessed noises the s/c just couldn't.

 

Haha ok n yea that's the thing if I can afford it I just want over 300hp is all

 

2.7, cooling mods, a nice intake and exhaust, 80s and e85 will net you 300 on the m62

 

What size pulley do I need for my turbo swap? They didn't send one in my kit..... Stupid people. Anyone know? For the Hahn kit.

 

Belt* not pulley

 

you'll need the belt off a 2.2, as well as the idler assembly.

 

Go to auto zone and ask for a 2009 cobalt ss turbo belt. Do you need a welded alternator? I have one.

 

Okay thanks man ill do that, they sent me the wrong belt it's way to small and it's only 4 ribs not 5.

And no I have the alternator already!

 

I might need one there turbo duckie

 

And no I have the alternator already!

 

Oh also, you know the oil feed line for the turbo? Where in the hell is it located? I have everything on but I can't seem to find the plug. Any suggestions?

about these vac lines..lol

 

60 bucks shipped, its welded up by a fab shop, Nice piece. Works great, just need shorter bolts. you need bolts that are the same length as the ac compressor bolts. I bought mine from mongorat.

Oil feed line plugs into a "-an" fitting on top the turbo cartridge, curves around and plugs into the block at one of the oil galleys in the back of the block , there are 3 of them. I used the far right side closest to the turbo. They are a pain to get out but use a giant allen wrench and they will come out. You must have the turbo, and other stuff off and out of the way. I had the water crossover tube off when I pulled mine so that there was no restriction to the plug.

what else you confused about?

 

im a bit retarded at this lol.

 

no problems man, ask away and remember there is most of this covered here in this thread. Just do a search up top of this page on this thread. Also search google images for bov diagrams or wastegate boost controller diagram. Its not hard at all.

 

for the most part i would keep it how i have it right? wastegate to bc to turbo then where does the side port of the wastegate go?

 

t it back into the turbo like this.



the manifold to bov is a seperate system all together. Leave it tubed from bov to manifold.

 

okay i see. ill need another T then.

Okay I'll try it.. One more thing. Did you see my post about the coolant lines on our turbo ? Do we use them or no?

 

I dont know anyone on a turbo swapped cobalt ss/sc that is using the coolant portion of the cartridge. Oil provides enough cooling per Bill Hahn Jr. (talked to him on the phone directly)

 

That's what me and a friend were saying, but or the belt I bought the one you told me too but it's 5 ribs and the tensioner pulley is 6 ribs. Does this matter ?

 

doesnt matter, I have a 5 rib LNF alternator and serpentine tensioner, 6 rib crank, 6 rib ac compressor. TC/LNF serp belt. When you install everything you barely notice the 1mm of space extra on the two 6 rib pulleys.

 

Ahhhhhh okay good! Thanks for all the help! Builds done now once I get the belt on!
