i have it but you cant make cpu bigger.

Ok first of all... the Qualcom ARM6 Cpu is actualy a Turbo one into your phone... so its already Overclocked from 600mhz to 800mhz... but there is a kernel that unlocks the cpu up to 1 ghz but... i repeat its already OC-ed i brought it to 900mhz and it was stable... but not really a difference...! i don't really know how much protection has an ARM CPU to overvolting and overclocking... but i don't think is computer safe... its a chance that you can brick it
The ROM that supports Overclocking is named Particle and you can find it on XDA forum.

oh ya and after you install the Particle ROM... you overclock it with the same app SetCPU

i have 1 question when i root i have all functions?
