Right.
Tempremental MAF's as well...ZZP relocates them to the lower front IC pipe.
Do not like.

You used the letters zzp. Course you no like
03-08-2013
Nah; I like their mechanical stuff...for the most part.
It's their tunes/electronics I don't care for.
03-08-2013
Or door signs
03-08-2013
That too.
But you know...
Yeehaw?
03-08-2013
Yeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaw

Homeless guy on bike had no idea what happened.
I don't think Josh or Brandon did either.

recirc helps keep the compressor moving during shifts as well.
Something you'd only care about if the car was a manual though.
How much boost is the thing running?
Does it have that typical recirc valve?
I ask because apparently the 710N valve is better suited to running around 18-20 PSI compared to the lesser versions.

This reminds me children of the corn...... Wtf is everyone?Originally Posted by blueguy
Got some 20% Tint all around...and 4300K HID Headlights/5000K Fog Lights...went out for some pics today after the car's first detail this year
Steps taken...
Hand wash/dry with...
Megs Car Wash
Turtle Wax Liquid Clay Bar
Megs Medium Cut Cleaner
Megs Fine Cut Cleaner
Megs Yellow #26 Show Car Glaze as a finisher...
Turtle Wax Tire Shine applied to a towel and wiped down tires/wheel wells/waxed wheels with the #26 finisher as well.
Here were some pics...and then a little start-up, rev, acceleration...and yeah; it was in gravel apparently on the right side...or you can just say I'm a badass...cuz I know I be one in a 16 second car.
Mods as of to date performance wise are: K&N Intake, CED 2.4 Intake Manifold Swap, Polished Throttle Body, and Magnaflow Touring Catback Exhaust System w/ Factory SS/SC 3" Angled Polished Tip...

Mooore pics of this regal!
08-27-2013
It's not a regal it's a GNX
08-27-2013
Ahhhhh. Veeerryy nice.

I can't find a clean cut answer. The way the MAF/MAP dictate/translate...It's anywhere from 18-20psi from what I'm seeing. I'd like to just plug in a damn aeroforce and read it. It's really strange...you can feel it too when full bore into the throttle, it's got SO much more in it, but just watching the tach...you can watch it stall, go another 500~rpm's....stall...go a few thousand...stall for a split second...le lame.
I wonder though, I'll have to look...this is what I was looking at for it: Forge Motorsport | Alloy Fabrication
It did however get tinted and some HID's in it...I'll take pics soon

Some cars will actually compensate for altitude by increasing boost. I believe mine will do that up to 5000 ft IIRC.I can't find a clean cut answer.

That boost control issue sounds verbatim what my car does. Albeit, only when warm. I should log IAT's. It seems like it only really occurs when the car is heatsoaked. Factory intercoolers are known to suck. I just stopped going wot instead.
I have a Forge, I bought it because it came with a keychain, and all of the approval of the vortex.Honestly shouldn't be needed considering how new the thing is.

Cobalt diaphrams fail in a few years...so, it's kinda like LIM gaskets...preventing whats gonna happen eventually I suppose.
It does seem to get cleared up with a tune though: LHU Buick Regal E85 2.0 liter Turbo Ecotec - YouTube

Some places on the innernets claim that stock cars are "like that" because of the "restrictive exhaust".
08-28-2013
No.
It's like that because you can't even measure them correctly on the dyno.
Yay, computers.
Per ZZP:The gains are hard to measure because the Regal adjusts its boost by the amount of airflow the MAF sensor is seeing. So as you add mods the car sees the added airflow and reduces your boost to bring the power back down
08-28-2013
Wait this car still around?
08-28-2013
Perhaps its a torque based system like the Bosch system?
Bosch system has a "torque" value it aims for. So boost is calculated as a function of trying to achieve a certain torque level.

Which is le stupid.
But no: dumb down car for old people and negligent feks who never careeee
