CordiaDOHC u got to remember ppl on this site think anything they're not usin on the car sux and is goin to blow your motor, just like everyone thinks using n2o will cause ur motor to break, if u read the Ecotec build book and all the test results of all the aftermarket mods GM tested on cobalts they tested most of the using n2o as a power added and they could add the most power will a fully bolted cobalt runnin n2o then a fully bolted w/ a turbo or super since the stock motor can only take about 6-8psi of boost

says who lol. all i'm saying is there is a reason why people that consistently run nitrous run a smaller shot unless they're going to build for it. May last a week, may last a year, who knows. But one day it will go pop. Many people who thought it would be fine eventually blow their car up. That's why you don't see too many people here, especially those that have been around for a while running big shots.

i posted this earlier, but i guess the forum was acting up
dp wont do much of anything, catback wont do much more, jet MAF wont do anything, et module wont do anything, rods are good. So, you've got 1 good power adder, and a couple supporting mods.
I say a low 14.
FYI, the 75 shot guys are usually manual, and usually run high 14's.
lack of pistons means you're honestly probably gonna fry a piston ring when you use the juice fyi. Have fun with the rebuild!

Wrong. The biggest restriction is the exhaust side of the head.

wrong. Thats the biggest restriction after the header has been swapped. The L61 head has almost identical flow rates as the LSJ head. The same can not be said for the L61/LSJ header comparison
edit: even then, i still think the LSJ head outflows the LSJ header... DP and catback i can maybe understand...but not theheader

dude? theres a couple forged 2.2s theres 3 or 4 that come to mind, not including myself motors being built as we speak. Auto is NOT AS FAST as a manual, ur on crack, and ur buddies 5.0 is slow as **** if you are infact hanging even near him.
and 800-1000 a month in Income isnt gonna buy u a twincharged and sprayed 2.2 lol, unless ur living at home on mommy and daddies dime and dont have any bills.
Oh noez ricer math lol.... 145hp you know what that is in whp? and just because it says 75 shot dosent mean thats howmuch hp you get, its just a general rating.
witha 75 shot il give him high 14's il give him that
