saab 2.0 turbo kit swap to cobalt 2007 2.2

[CobaltCpe]

Hey Everyone,

I am trying to find the saab 2.0 turbo kit that i could swap to my cobalt 2.2. I was wondering if anyone would know of any junk yards that would have a wrecked saab with the 2.0 turbo kit. Also, would anyone suggest any other way of going turbo. I have seen kits on ebay but not sure if the parts are great. I know i would like a garret t25, or t3 super 60 with tial 38mm external wastegate. Definately a front mount intercooler with 2.5" piping and downpipe and 2.75" exhaust after the downpipe back to muffler. I would get a wideband gauge for tuning purposes. Definately a good bov and not a cheap knock off brand. I have around 2 g's to start gathering parts and wondering what my best way would be. Also, wondering if any locals around the dallas area or close would be interested to help me out with getting a kit and helping me install it.

thanks,

Josh

sorry cant afford 4 grand for the garrett kit. I can piece together a kit for half that price.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CAVA...ptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories $175 for manifold with external wastegate.

http://sanantonio.craigslist.org/pts/1332393637.html Garrett t3 super 60 - I think i should jump on this as this is a great price. With this, i wouldnt even need the external wastegate then or the tial 38mm so it would save money for sure. Already has the 6 psi spring which would be good to go.

http://milwaukee.craigslist.org/pts/1360033487.html Tial 38mm with 11 psi spring for $125

o really...well ****...there it is then...

 

[Jn2]

yeah thats MSRP...so not a lot of website have updated to the new cost, i know a few ebay vendors did, but contact horsepowerfreaks, and ask them the cost of the kit, if they say 3grand ask them why garret msrp is less than that...if they dont wanna look or check, take ur money elsewhere

 

[mrsilent13]

or if the op wants...he can look at the hahn kit for a 2.4...that will also work
