you can get what ever you want to get. that is up to you. you could run the same turbo just less boost, say like 7 or 8psi and still make 220-230whp

All catbacks are interchangeable, headers vary by whether or not you have an 02 sensor or not. (2.0ss has this, 2.2/2.4 has 02 sensor in DP instead)

The injen intake has 2 different designs, 2.2/2.4 or 2.0.

so i dont know a whole lot about your guys turbo set up, but on another forum they seem to think the 2.2 can't handle boost on stock internals, how many of you guys are on stock internals?

The Garrett turbo kit is sold specifically to work with a stock engine. Stock internals are good up to around 250 HP.

by the way as I was reading through I saw your signature and you should get rid of that pacesetter catback asap!!! Mine rotted out at the muffler inlet and its only been on my car for 8 months maybe.....pure junk....I just got the magnaflow catback and its AWSOME!!! Sorry guys this was totally off subject....easily distracted...lol

I assume that means you already spent the thousand or so dollars on the manifold and charge piping that you will need for it to work on a Cobalt? Buying just a used turbo is silly when you realize that you have to also get a lot of other parts to make it work,.

you can turbo supercharge your 07 2.2 cuz i just started my build... header and dp, intake mani, tb, port your head, suspension moods would be good so you can get more power to the wheels it all depends on how much $$$ you have!

a quick question since i'm rebuild the internals whats the highest psi i can run i been doin research but it doesnt help cuz the all say different?

No, because there is no one place where you can learn everything all at once. A good place to start would be a popular book called "Maximum Boost". That will at least teach you what the system does.

Then, with specific regard to your application, you would have to start piecing together the parts and find a tuning solution.
