This thread makes me cringe. I love the prospect of fellow 2.4L SS owners going turbo. I'd love to see some quick 2.4L's. But what I can't stand is a bunch of idiots swarming around a thread like drooling 5th graders that just got their first glimpse of the puberty handbook. Half the people in this thread know absolute **** about cars. The other half just talk smack out of their asses when quite frankly... they have no clue what their car is going to perform like after they go turboed. You don't see me talking smack about my car keeping dead even with LSJs up until the 90s (which I do). And you certainly don't see me calling out LSJs that would whip my ass as of right now. I don't know about anyone else here... but I'm no psychic. So I think I'll just wait till I actually can prove what my car can do with a turbo by running it.... not by theoretical racing.
For the rest of you complaining about no auto turbo kit available for purchase... grow a set and go custom or shut the hell up and stop complaining.

Oh I'm sorry....I wasn't referring to a 2.4L Cobalt. I don't have a Cobalt other than my buddies, which is waiting for the HRC kit. I was referring to my Cavalier. Your talking big so I thought I'd bring the big gun out. Been looking for somewhere else to go to race and make some money. I've heard good things about the Pittsburg street racing scene so why not.
Trapping 109 eh? I've trapped 115 before. Speeds don't mean ****. It's the times that count. I've run 12.70s at 103 AND 113. Speed can vary do to a launch, shift, fart along the way, or any number of things. Times are the best, and only way to me, to compare one car to another. This setup, when I find and cure my boost leak finally (GRRRR), should push low to mid 12s easily and go into the 11s when pushed. On the street I'd expect mid 12s.
You wanna go, we'll go sometime when I can get the car back to 100% and I can get out that way.
Edit: The car I'd be bringing is the one referenced in my sig BTW. That's my best run from when it was stock internals, stock clutch, stock head, HRC Stage 2 kit with 40# injectors and 6:1 FMU disc, and BFG Drag Radials.

I agree with PpAzZ mostly. Though you can't blame us auto guys for wanting a quality Hahn setup.
Also, maybe its time we had a sticky thread with the info gathered by Wolf. This is the only one of the three performance forums that doesn't have any sticky threads.

My best run: 12.53 seconds @ 104MPH
Another run: 13.24 seconds @ 115MPH
Couple weeks ago (with boost leak): 14.32 seconds @ 96MPH
See how the speed means nothing on the run? I can pull BIG MPH numbers even when running shitty times. Start using times for references to your car's abilities.
As was told to me by a racer up here....
"Using speed to describe your car's quarter-mile abilities is only for people who can't pull a good quarter-mile time, yet they need to appear fast to everyone else."
This is not meant as an insult by any means, even though it will probably be taken as one.
So what TIMES are you running to make this a fun/worthwhile race?

I know better than to challenge 1/4 times...but i do try on the streets from a roll...once the trans is fixed id have no problem running in the 1/4...my car is basically a clone of robs car...or atleast very close
basically im saying ur not that much faster than me...you are currently but ill definately race u anyway. And i definately want to race once i get the twincharger on.
and btw i called out the 2.4s last time i checked...ud just be a fun side race...i know when im out classed at a point lol
last edit i swear...i dynoed 270whp and 260wtq...without alky and only a cat delete done to the exhaust

You may have called out the 2.4s, but that's only because you know they can't compete right now. I can, and I will.
Last time I dyno'd, which was a long time ago on all the stock stuff, I made 260WHP and 278lb/ft on 12PSI.

I don't think this Hypsy knows Dano (djt8185) is about 340lbs on a light day and his forearms have their own zip code...If I was him, I'd be just a little tad less abrasive and don't upset the defensive lineman....
Dano I'll drive your car to low 12s....that'll save us like 140 lbs..

Anyways...Dano (I guess that's your name). Speed is not an indicator of HP. I'll give you EVEN MORE examples to prove that wrong.
These are real runs I made. Both on the same day, same setup, same tire pressures, and almost identical atmospheric conditions and within an hour of each other.
Run 1: 13.003 sec @ 99MPH with a 2.022 60ft
Run 2: 13.005 sec @ 104MPH with a 2.021 60ft
Going by your theory of "speed indicates hp" I had more HP on the second run. No. In fact going by the atmospheric conditions I was running with more HP on the first run. The altitude was 53ft lower on that run, equating to better air, and more power. I record every run into my log book so you know. All of the split times on those runs were DEAD EVEN until the last one (1000ft to 1320ft) where Run 1 was .002 better.
So tell me...where is the HP difference. It doesn't add up. Sorry man.

If I was you and Dano got pissed at me I'd care and I am not little....But..in this case I don't care one way or another if you are not intimadated..neither was Napoleon and look where it got him.. so disappointment over you being intimidated won't be in my house.
But you are all up in this guy's grill about this and if it was me ...i'd be a little less confrontational and cyber thug like.
GTP...out.
