Welcome aboard! When are you going to put the blower on? That sounds like a pretty serious setup - what kind of power are you shooting for?

I'm not familiar with the Harrop HTV supercharger, is it a roots or twin screw?

Roots, but it's a high helix hybrid. Each rotor has four lobes. 1.32L, whereas the stock one is a standard eaton roots blower, only 1L, 3 lobes. Gen 5 i think?

I already have the blower injectors etc, just waiting on some fittings for the return fuel system.

I'm keeping the standard 3" pulley on it, should be good for ~17/18lbs of boost on the current exhaust setup and about 290whp.

Ahhh, it sounds like a TVS blower. Those are the new style eaton's too (4 lobes, 160 degrees of twist). Very cool - your car should scream considering it weighs about, what, 2800lbs?

Yeah, about that, probably just north of 2900. I will probably pulley down once i get a new clutch and install the spare trans with LSD that i have.

Going to shoot for 325 at the wheels. Any more than that, and the instant torque of the blower would make it worthless in the twisties.

Welcome aboard. That's a nicely put together ride there. :drink:

[Damian]

Very nice Cobalt! Not much of a yellow fan, but nicely put togther.

[WillBeck]

Yellow wasn't my first choice. I had a dark metallic blue one lined up, but it got sold from under me, so at that point i just wanted the car for what it was. IT's grown on me, that's for sure haha

[SoCalC55]

Nice job on the mods! Looks real good

and Welcome

[jedhead]
