    It's different than an M90 I believe... (someone correct me if I'm wrong).

    This is very exciting for me
    I thought the M62 went on the Cobalt. That M90 looks a bit big for a 4 cylinder.

    Curious... What mg/sec did you hit, or hertz on the MAF sensor at that peak boost level?
    MAF: 9751 hz, 28.96 lb/min

    That's after several runs, parked, hot-soaked, etc. and with the aforementioned stock TB and small intake tubing. It would do better from a cold start, but that's just the first day, lot of tweaking to do.

    With the MP62 now on my other Alero, It peaks at 10k and 31 lb/min, with a 68mm TB and much better intake plumbing. 2.2 pulley, about the same boost level, maybe a bit higher, 0.80 g/cyl

    1st Mock-up Complete!

    Got in some test drives today, after much test fitting for the belt system.

    Hit 8 psi with the stock TB and MAF, and the cheap CAI tubing. Leaving a lot on the table, there, lol
    The exhaust is 3 inch, CAT+ Muffler.

    No, I didn't notch out the hood brace like I said to, and yes it did knock a little paint off the blower case, But it worked!
    As expected, the 90 degree silicone coupler collapses under vacuum, so it needs reinforcement. So now I can refine the prototype parts as I go along, upgrade the TB, etc., and we'll see how everything holds up with some abuse.

    The hose will be fine, at least 1/2 inch clearance, easily wrapped with insulation if need be. Not sure how close it is for a stock manifold, though. But the header is almost touching the stock water outlet anyway, I usually shield that. There is space between the blower and all the other components, can shield it underneath as well, where the original MP62 kit actually touched the engine and hose.

    Bypass, bracing

    As in the original kit, the fan mount had to be trimmed for the bypass valve. I may order another lever to change the angle. The blower case rests on a pad on the side brace tube. There is room for improvement here. Not ready for rough roads, but hope to get some tests in without cracking an outlet. Next have to make gaskets.
