I should really start a new thread titled. "How to build a 300whp LSJ for less then 2k"...
I am generalizing which is a bad thing. I am not saying that the Typical LNF owner is dumb. I am just saying that they don't care about anything else other then their precious little turbo. So some are not educated on what the LSJ can do when properly mod'd.

I've said this a million times .... Why do fellow Cobalt owners fight with each other ? We all basically drive the same friggin car. I guess that's what happens when the average age of Cobalt owners on this site is 20.

Yeah I know. A lot of my RL guys moved over there. I just don't need another forum on my list at this time.
It depends. lol.
You could probably get a good E-85 tune from OTTP or ZZP. ZZP got things started with E85 and helped me get started with my own car. Omega_5 was kind enough to spend about 4 hours with me one night giving me a run down on HPTs. And he has shared a ton of tuning information on the intraweb.
So I made my own tune and put down 285/265 on the M62 and 329/290 on the TVS.
Then Josh from OTTP help me refine the tune. In normal driving conditions my car ran much better on the OTTP tune. Both tunes run the same at WOT.
Right now I am running a modified version of the OTTP E85 tune. So I have to give credit where credit is due. Josh has been EXTREMELY helpful to me going back to 2008 when he help me fix the tune I got from Z_Speed. (That is a whole other story...)
So if you are looking for an tune I would recommend starting with OTTP or ZZP. But if your willing to drive to NEWI and spend about 1/2 day with me I could certainly take care of you.
idk know about those turbo converts. Their builds take forever and then they loose their wheels!
In time my friend.
