Electric Supercharger?

[nickmn]

I'm a little new to installing mods and everything into cars, so I just found an "electric supercharger" there about $180. Are they worth it? I have a 2007 cobalt ls. is this little upgrade worth it?

[cobalt123]

dont its a scam. it doesnt do anything. the only supercharger that you should buy for your cobalt is a eaton m62 and it takes an entire kit to swap it onto your base model

alright thanks!

when i was reading about it, it just didn't make much sense to me how there would be an electric supercharger.

the eaton m62 is designed for a 2.5L-4.0L. how is that super charger supposed to work if i have a 2.2L?

"The Eaton Supercharger Model 62 is designed for 2.5L to 4.0L passenger car and light truck engines, but may also be suitable for other engine sizes, depending on total system performance requirements."

I dont have any other performance upgrades so.... please inform me.

Supercharged 2.2

I looked on the eaton web site and i found sellers of the M62 but i looked on their website and i cant find it on there. where did you guys buy your m62 at? or did it already come in your ss?

[cobalt123]

m62 come stock from the factory on the cobalt ss from years 2005 to early 2007. most 2.2s get their superchargers from them. costs upwards to 1200 for a brand new one. where as you get a used one from another cobalt owner for 300ish

and the one distributor in MN isnt set up for selling the m62 kit yet... he said sometime next year.

$2200 for EVERYTHING (youre right, except the tune)....not just the SC

i was lucky and scored a brand new one on ebay for $500....another option to check for you...
