Well, acording the chevy.com ... for the new Colorado's its this ...

Quote:

The in-line Vortec 3.7L I-5 engine in Colorado is smartly engineered to be powerful, efficient, durable and requires low maintenance. It generates 242 horsepower at 5600 rpm and 242 lb.-ft. of torque at 4600 rpm and includes the following features:


I assume that you have the 3.7L engine.

Not bad numbers, have you looked into somebody else tuning the enigne,instead of haveing it factory tuned?

You lost torque and gained aboot 1hp?

Hope the tune goes well.. It doesn't seem like you're getting much for the intake/exhaust mods.

I'm kind of curious as to what the power band looked like without the mods compared to now. I'm sure the power band is different, although u didn't gain much power.

forced induction would be nice but all the kits turbo or s/c are 4-6 grand almost makes me rather do a LS1 swap easier to get more ponies out of that motor and they are starting to become cheaper

yeah it is a little pricy.. but over on trailvoy.com they were talking that the same kids can be retro fited to the 4.2 trailblazers. I'm thinking about that.. the only diff would be the manifold (no big deal there) LS1 sway would be cool too.

woo hoo.I need to get my Canyon dyno'ed but I am sure the results will look alot like yours.Thats still good power.The tune should bring you somewhere near 200whp.

Yeah the 3.42's suck balls.2nd gear doesn't shift into 3rd until 84-86 mph.



I ain't callin u a gold digga,but you ain't messin wit a broke cracka
