no no...im taking it slow...letting boost build up slowly....

mrsilent13

you guys will never guess what broke now......



i dont even know how...its just a pnuematic line runnoing to it....well watever...nmy ******* boost guage **** itself now....maybe glowshift gauges are just that shitty....i finally get the car running correctly and something else breaks...


which one of u ass holes cursed my car.....lol
im sorry if i pissed u off....please lift the curse from my car....well now im jusst thinking of leaving it as is only pushing 6lbs right now but its running really smooth....im thinking about leaving and calling it good for now until i can find a good stable job. in no way am i done with this car....but its good for now....i figuered if i can pull on a vette on my top end its good enough for now

so ill get a new intake manifold from a saab and install that in the future...then one day i will push this car to its limits...but for now its good...ill just continue paying it off....once im done paying it off ill continue with the modding....one other thing im going to get is sway bars....probably put them on order today.....so i wont be getting rid of her anytime soon...if anything ill keep her and just get another car.....maybe while im laying low a true tuning software will come to be available for us 2.2s....well until then...iill be dynoing on the 18th so stay tuned

mrsilent13

well....im working out some afr issues....its looking very promising....at the top of 1st gear it was 11.4 at the top of 2nd it was 11.9...and then 3rd started to lean out a bit....i let off around 5krpm and it read 12.5....so vince and i are working this out....but dayam she runs really nice now

awesome man.. you're getting there

mrsilent13

so finally running good....my afr at 3rd gear redline is 12.0....going to leave it as is for now......feels and sounds really nice....

now i just need to figuere out where my vac leak is at cuz my guage is not reading anything....well it reads fine at first and then after it dont register anything...even though im boosting...and i know im boosting. guage just stays at 0 and when i let off it will go down to 2 inHg

I would richen that up just a tad .. for year round driving

mrsilent13

year round weather in cali is always the same lol...im going to leave it as is....its not like i take up to 7.3krpm all the time...lol....still thinking about dyno tuning...not sure if i should or if i should just leave it as is and just find out how much im really pushing

just was saying to be safe.. thats kinda lean.. I'm suprised vince left it there. as he usually tunes for like 11.5 area

mrsilent13

well....as i was looking to fix my gauge i found that the vac line that pressurizes the fuel tank was completely melted...lol....so i ripped it out and replaced it with something better....not only that but the T-fitting that led to my boost guage was also melted...which is why my gauge was not reading ****....so now ive replaced all that...

well just now i went for a few WOT runs...and wow was i surprised that changing those lines out made such a big difference....somehow i must have been leaking boost....cuz now im making a lil over 9.5lbs of boost almost 10lbs....before i was only making 6lbs....im happy with this turn out...not only that but my afr is now 11.8....

it feels so nice, especially when it shifts into third...it just launches me that much more

Vince has done it again...

mrsilent13

hey why u never talk **** when you with me....

so last night as i was on my lunch break at UTI i was walking over to el ranchero to get me some food...i heard a bov and figuered it was a srt4...to my surprise it was an ss/tc black with a red lip kit and matching high rise wing...wheels were powder coted black and red as well. looked real clean...so i made it my mission to find out who this was...after lunch i saw him on one of the lifts...so i waklked on over there and asked for the owner...so i was like what u doing to it....he says adding a boost controller...im just glad that i was there to stop him. his car would have seen limp mode as soon as boost built up....well i looked and saw that he had a aem cai as well as cia charge piping with a bov....then we lifted and saw that it had a flowmaster exhaust. so i said to him how about we run them. hes like what u got. so i told him...he was like sure. so later w met up and lined up. from a dig i launched on him...but he was right next to me the whole time. we were pretty much neck and neck. but i stayed a little bit ahead of him by about 3 or 4 feet. we did this twice and both times i got the same results...so im pretty impressed with my car, he was impressed too. i told him to check this place out before he starts modding it and trying to add mbc. so we will probably see him on here. so i have another good kill...well it wasnt all that but i still stayed ahead of him. told him he needs a tune and to do some reading on his engine. overall he was pretty cool about me offering him some help

dude that is the most bad ass cobalt.

nice fernando...nice..

mrsilent13

so yea...i finally changed out my o2 sensor that was completely fouled up....making me run super super super rich...well i cleaned it up a few times to make it work...but i finally got the chance to change it out today...i got one at napa for 64 compared to autozone 130 or kragen 160. had to make a minor modification to the connector other than that well worth it...car runs super smooth now....and btw i fixed my oil pan leak...now i only have a leaky head. which i dont understand why its leaking. which its leaking right by the belt which is causing it to slip a little bit. and it sounds horrible..not only that its burning up a little bit of oil...not to worried about it...but man the people on the freeway really slow down when it does burn...lol. other than that...super smooth on the frwy and on streets. well compared to before
