Official Turbo LSJ thread!!!
#2302
In the slow process of figuring that out now lol. I need to get it on a dyno here soon. Just bumped the boost up to 25psi today, really don't think I wanna go higher but all it's gonna take is one loss.

591@30psi on the billet 262 .70a/r. switched it up to a billet 259 .55a/r. will still make the same power when tuning is done hence the "conservative", just seeing where knock occurs, how far he can push it, etc. then the real power will come. but spool is soooooo much faster. with the 262 spool sucked fat **** plain and simple. we're seeing 10mph sooner spool with the 259 and it will have a very similar top end. 4.5-5k rpm powerband ftw.
#2313
I believe mine is full spool at like 4k on my s256et. but the top end hp but come and hit until about 5.2k, but i think i need all retuned because when i ordered my whole kit i told Tim what fuel system i had and he still sent me the brfs tune and idk if thats got anything to do with it but my car takes forever it seems inbetween shifts, so it might be quicker with a whole new retune

so im looking to turbo swapping my lsj, whats the best set up for the bang for the buck the hahn kit or zzp? i wanna be pushing 350whp or more. i got the 60lb injectors and a 3 in and water to meth already.
#2317
i guess you could pick up the zzp kit then modify the cold side piping to match up to the hahn I/M then sell the saab I/M if you really wanna. and power numbers depend on the turbo you choose and the tune
#2318
See i'm sorry this just gets my goat. People come in here ask for advice, ask for hp numbers then are like can i find one for less than it does to even make....ugh. 3/4 of the cobalt kids around me are like that. Just frustrating. Wanna beat vettes with honda money.
#2319
i was just asking bro, if there was anything cheaper than 4 grand never said that was super super expensive at all. just want to know whats all out there and what would you reccomend to be 350 whp and up?

Mines full ZZP with 256et Turbo. still working on the tune with my buddy. ZZP kit is the best option IMO. I spent 4900 and I'm completely satisfied with the quality of everything
