I never said twincharging was less realistic, just that it wasn't MORE realistic... so don't put words in my mouth.

Just because no one makes a kit to Twin Turbo a Cobalt, and/or no one has done it... doesn't mean its less Realistic. Maybe you should look up the words you are using in a Dictionary. Both can be done on just about any car. Just because someone makes a kit to do one of them doesn't mean the other one is any less realistic. As I said in the other post... practicality comes into play here... not realism.

Open your mind before you open your mouth.

damn i've been told off

haha, what are you views on a supercharger?

They suck, imo...

But all the goodies can be obtained rather cheaply to S/C a 2.2L or 2.4L... which can make it a practical decision. Turbocharging isn't always the cheapest... but it can be done rather cheaply.

truth...but to all the turbo newbs...dont go cheap..i went cheap and it ended up costin me way more in the long run. i ended up upgrading everything eventually. only thing cheap i got is my 60 trim turbo which actually is doin very well with the amount of boost im running thru it. still has minimal shaft play still not leaking oil still just doing good all around, but i will be upgrading to a precision 6262 when i get $1000

superchargers you can get from forum members. turbochargers you can get from a lot of places online like a ZZP kit, horse power freaks, etc

the only type that will work are the roots type eaton m62 and a harrop tvs1320 the tvs puts out too much pressure for the stock 2.2 engine to handle after some forging its good to go

For the love of god... don't go with the 6262. Hahaha

who do i And thanks everyone for your kind words she got really bad last nighask about buying a supercharger then and what are some brand names

My friend has the entire supercharger set-up off of his 2007 SS/SC ready to sell.

M62 w/ 2.8 & 3.1" pulleys, Stg2 Injectors, Intake Manifold, Stock H/E, ZZP Stg3 H/E, OTTP 3" Intake, Stg2 belt, LSJ Tensioner & Bracket, LSJ Ported Exhaust Manifold, ZZP Catless Downpipe, and GMPP Catback.

There is probably more that I am forgetting... but anything S/C related will be off his car and shipped as soon as someone fronts the money. When we put the 2.8" pulley on, we pulled the S/C off the manifold... and the thing is pristine. Not really any oil build up or anything from the breather.

Without any of the Exhaust components: $1200 plus shipping. Damn good price, imo, since it includes the ZZP H/E and the 3" Stainless intake.

Nothing wrong with it... its just too big for a Cobalt. Unless you're shooting for 700hp... you don't need something that big. Thing won't spool until 5k.

A 5557 is plenty big. Enough for high 400's, low 500's if you push it hard enough. If you actually spend your money wisely and get the Billet Compressor wheel, it'll make mid-500's when pushed hard and hit full boost around 3500rpm.
