I'm not reading any of this, I'm just going to say Neither.
Cobalts are crap. Just ask Kgkleader.

Get ur self Dsm turbocharged awd

Dsm > honda > most of the cars
i did smoked z06 vette with mine 2 g dsm @ 30 psi of boost

To do crank walk you have to run lean , then you blow the engine not when I'm running with 1200cc injectors @39psi upgrades maf sensor HKS cam gears HKS copper head gasket. Only problem with 2g I had it was steam valve o-rings and engine oil cooler pretty much it.
I know ppl running srt4 @20 psi and they do crank walk all the time , never happened to me.

This is what? Your second post in this subforum? Do yourself a favor and leave now. You've already embarrassed yourself.

yy I tell you what you know shit about DSM's or ur jealous about it.
Any time I would get DSM over any other car. So keep the stuff for ur self and read bit more @ http://www.dsmtuners.com/
If you decide to buy one there is performance parts shop
magnusmotorsports.com So stfu.

A lean condition is not going to lead to a thrust bearing failure. That is engine knowledge, regardless of brand. Do you even know what crank walk is? Better yet, do you realize that any engine can do it? Some have shit main/bearing/cap designs that make it waaaay more common (DSM).

A lean condition can melt a piston, break ringlands, or toast and exhaust valve. It is not going to cause a lack of lubrication on your thrust bearing which causes the crank to walk (shaft endplay). Get off DSM tuners and go learn some stuff on a real tech site. I swear the guys on there think low windshield washer fluid and overinflated tires cause crank walk... It's not that complicated.

ok there you go as ur the smart one :

What is Crankwalk?
Ok, I will be using correct spelling since I seriously want everyone that reads this to understand as best as possible.

So now we know what a DSM is, but what is crankwalk? Crankwalk, or "the walking crankshaft", happens when the crankshaft starts moving around its housing. This causes the crankshaft to, at some point or another, wear into the thrust bearing heavily. This will cause the crank to eventually move a plate that will smash into the crank angle sensor, break it, and shut the car down.

That's why you have stages or upg on these know problems. Any kind of car turboed or not can do crank walk.
More fun is that most of the cars can't keep up with dsm's.

You just restated what I said in third grade ESL student style. You didn't address the fact that a lean condition is not going to cause crank walk. That was the whole point in my post. You have 1200cc injectors. That's good for around 700hp. Should make for a nice view of my license plate.
