I had a dream. A dream of a twin-charged 2.2L ecotec engine. anyone think it can be done?
do you mean the twin-charged cobalt SS being built? isnt that 2.0L? besides, thats just like adding a turbocharger. im talking about supercharging and turbocharging a car that was originally N.A., like a sunfire
they're just adding a turbo to the car like you would to yours...except their's is already supercharged. you can use a bigger turbo than normal because the supercharger will take car of the low end boost. then the turbo spools up and takes care of the top end. plus i'll bet it sounds awesome with the spooled turbo and the whine of the supercharger in unison

450WHP Turbo Ecotec swap in the works...
that will be an amzing vehicle. think about if you have a car done up you may have not to good low end power or not to good high end but this has both that are good. and the turbo will spool nice wit the supercharger. i think that will put out such a good power curve. thats a good dream man, i think soon that might get popular if it is successful. take a low end priced car do both and you could have a much faster car then some of the expensive crap so why not.
just 1 question, WHY?
useless IMO. I've build a turbo setup for my 2.3 and with the right turbo, you can have boost really low. I have boost at 1500rpm so what's the point of having an Sc and a turbo.
another thing is heat. you have hotter air because of the turbo even if it's not in boost. witch mean with the turbo, you'll loose soem Hp from the blower. Another thing is the turbo will make more heat under boost so you would need an intercooler before the Sc and the air will still be hotter than normal air so you'll loose some power of the Sc.
another thing is that the Sc take alot of Hp from the engine so it's plain useless to have it if you have the turbo.
You have to think that your turbo will cause some backpressure so the power gain from the Sc will be lower again.
It's just for show because it's plain useless. It make the people taht don't know F/I think it's cool but in reality, it's plain stupid.

Mfk, chill out man you said'''it's plain stupid.''' about 3 times.
I support your opinion, and think it is all show.
MONSTROSITY????!!!!!! with 300 hp, oh come onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.
That motor will blow up before that. lol People with money are sure as @!#$ funny.

I was on the edge a little bit
A damn crook said that he "found" a way to get better gas mileage. but in reality, he just copy the tornado piece. So now he went on tv twice and people all over Quebec believe in that POS so I'm kinda on the edge seeing that a damn crook like that can fool so many people. Everybody believe it's like a miracle so I'm pissed. It's going to be like a F&F wave. everybody will buy one and believe that he got better gas mileage and that his car is more powerful.
I just can't believe it.
As for the thread, it's for show, at least I hope. I would put my company name on something useless as that. Granted some dumb people will buy it but I wouldn't have the balls to do it.

i dont think the 2.0 will blow up at 300hp lol
If they do that, i would certainly hope that they put better rods and pistons in there than stock. Im sure that with the 2.0 though it being destroked and all probably has much better internals than the ones that came in the j's..

2.2 Ecotec Swap Completed!!!
i had this idea a couple months ago and i talked it over with a mechanic friend of mine. you can't use a root sc with a turbo because no matter how much air the turbo can compress it will only make through the engine as fast as the sc can force it. What you have to do is use a centrifugal sc and a turbo then it will work. This is what we discussed if anyone can prove me/him wrong please let me know cause i prefer roots over centrifugal. also i can't remember what the term is but there is a term for a sc and tc setup. anyone know what it is

Heh i rode in a Procharged Mustang Cobra today.... i need to change my underwear after the car got squirrely at 65MPh from a downshift into 3rd.

Forgot the point to that, although roots is better for low RPM, i LOVE the sound of the centrifugal, and as long as your above 3krpms (at least on the Cobra) you have full boost. But then again, how often are you below 3krpms if your running it?

Well the 2.0L Ecotec S/C has forged internals already, so I am assuming there will be no need to upgrade them....
love it!!!! It would be nice to feel, what kind of HP is the stang running?
HP Tuners | Garrett T3/T04B | 2.5" Charge Pipes | 2.5" Downpipe | 650 Injectors | HO Manifold | Addco front/rear | Motor Mounts | HKS SSQV | Spec stage 3 | AEM UEGO Wideband | Team Green LSD | FMIC | 2.3 cams | 2.3 oil pump swap | 280WHP | Now ECOTECED
Actually nissan made a "super turbo" nissan march in the late 80's early 90's. It was used for japanese K racing and pwn3d everything. In the end they ended up banning the car. It made 200 hp off a 1.4 or 1.5 liter, can't remember. LOL
SCC twin-charged an MR2 with a V6 swapped in... they got some pretty badass results, but i think that twin charging is really just one of those things thats done simply because it can be done. If it was really all the viable of a performance option, there'd be tons of race teams doing it.

The Mustang i was in is guesstimated around 500hp. It was ssssooo sexy, i offered him a trade but he said no lol

ehhhh i dunno how well they would like double induction. they will probably want to run a little lower compression and i hope the rods are good.
I was a retard, and now I'm permanently banned.
