sooooo is this zzp kit suppose to be good or what?

^^^x2

have they released the kit yet?

i just saw it on the site... all that and supposed to be less than hahns kit..sounds like it could be good.

i wanna see official prices and dynos:cssNET:

i just went to the website....theyre still looking for a guinea pig for the 2.4

hmm i think i might call them and find out the price and release date

I think they are located in Michigan aren't they? If so i'll be their huckleberry.

i could be theirs for a 2.2

its gotta be the same except for tuning

ill be purchasing right away if it works for us autos :twothumbs

ill be purchasing right away if it works for us autos :twothumbs

fa sho im gettin dat fa sho, if it will work for a 2.2 auto

they say they custom tune it so i dont see why it wouldnt work

Any ideas when this will be available to purchase??

it will work on autos theres a lot of auto turbos lol

the hahn turbo can work on an auto lol

good luck tuning a turbo 2.2 lol mike still hasnt got his tune (2years later)

good luck tuning a turbo 2.2 lol mike still hasnt got his tune (2years later)

ls2edit........ works wonders from what they say

hmmm tuning a 2.2 must be hard huh??

hmmm tuning a 2.2 must be hard huh??

i personally dont know but there are a lot of tuned 2.2s

yea there is it shouldnt be hard to get a tune

any updates on this ?? seems like zzp only cares about there twin charge kit for 2.0l right now :(

yea i know its pissing me off lol we need that turbo kit lol im wanting it

...i dont even see what u guys are talking about on their site..

I emailed the guys at ZZP and basically they just told me that they aren't planning on ever doing anything for us 2.2's.

Really sucks, but just do your own thing and get trifecta tuned.

haha that sucks they was... planning on getting us the turbo kit from them well us 2.4

just get a 2.4 turbo kit then and its the same deal...youll just need a different tune..no biggie.
back to my original question...can someone link me to this turbo kit? im not seeing it on their website

heres the link to the twincharge kit: http://www.zzperformance.com/cobalt_ion/products1.php?id=871&catid=143

at the bottom under FAQ 8 it mentions the 2.4 and the turbo kit :cssNET:

UPDATE!!!

I emailed them.. u guys gotta learn to ask the right questions when u do that btw...

but, they said they are still working on it and the price is 3k INSTALLED and DYNO TUNED!!! they need someone in the area to test fit first. I also sent a message asking wut the price is for those that aren't in the area, and am waiting on that response.

So wait, you talking about a kit for the 2.2 or 2.4?

the title of the thread is zzp turbo kit for the 2.4 where did 2.2s come from?

lol yea the 2.4L does

the title of the thread is zzp turbo kit for the 2.4 where did 2.2s come from?

as far as the way parts bolt up, the two cars are identical...anything that bolts on to a 2.4 should bolt on to a 2.2, including turbo kits and blower kits, therefore a lot of the 2.2 guys will be following 2.4 mods

http://www.zzperformance.com/cobalt_ion/products1.php?id=922

http://www.zzperformance.com/cobalt_ion/products1.php?id=922

any idea when a shipped version will be available for us distant customers ?>???

i just emailed them about the 2.2s and told them i may be able to be a test car because if they dyno tune, there shouldnt be a difference, they custom tune to each car so why would a 2.2 be different than a 2.4?

I am in Michigan and I'd loove to be the test car

I am in Michigan and I'd loove to be the test car

haha im gunna beat u too it, usually a test car gets the product for dirt cheap, or they may not even charge me

but i risk the fact of my car blowing up, but hey its no different than running any turbo set up as long as its tuned right

they emailed me back and they only offer HP Tuners, so i sent them a link to the LS2edit software

Im actually a 2.4L SS though, thats what the kit was supposed to be for. Plus I can be tuned cause im an 07.

o well ur lucky

2k with 1k for install!!!! omg please let the price for those who want it shipped be 2k plus shipping... i will order this with my income tax check!!!

i asked them if i could pick up the kit and have it installed without a tune, so that would be like 2500 maybe, then a tune from a local member with ls2edit and im in =]

where is zzp located exactly anyways? i live just outside of detroit. and i was looking into a kit and i think hahn needs a little competition ;)

Wyoming, Michigan

Yeah I live about an hour from them, my car is about 1.5hours from them back at home.

i think im really wanting to buy this lol

wow ok, so its only like a 2.5 hour drive for me. awesome! im not gettin into it tho til i see some solid results

If you guys release this in a kit, I'll definitely be picking one up.

Gotta ship it though, it will be a hard drive from Texas. ;)

i cant w8 till i get my zzp kit bc i plan on ordering

damn i hope they ship it ....at that price they put hahn to shame

anyone know the limits on the turbo that they'll be using or anything specific about this kit yet?

^^ to all... why dont you guys just buy the Hahn stg V? There would be almost no fabrication to make it fit (no pulley delete kit needed), and you can tune via HPTuners, and there you go...your set for +400WHP

If I had the money, thats what I'd do

this kit is designed for the 2.4 and the hahn level 5 is like almost 5k total isnt it?

just go hahn

here ya go

http://www.atpturbo.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=tp&Category_Code=COB

cheapest i've found the kits. Can be upgrade to a gt2871r or a gt3071r for an extra $100 and $250 respectfully.

yea i would go hahn to but its 5k i dont have that money right now or i would be all over it

2.4 friendly? The two kits on the top, the complete ones, are those totally assemble, tune, roll set-ups? I hate buying kits and having to complete them.. I like everything to be in the damn box.. lol.

yea i agree lol

When you're a "test mule" for something like that, do they give it to you for free afterwards? lol. If so, I'll drive my ass up there tomorrow.

i emailed about that sadly no u still gotta pay the 3k :(

i emailed about that sadly no u still gotta pay the 3k :(

but 3k shipped with a tune ??

3k for everything they install tune it and dyno it the whole works i think its a pretty good deal

2.4 friendly? The two kits on the top, the complete ones, are those totally assemble, tune, roll set-ups? I hate buying kits and having to complete them.. I like everything to be in the damn box.. lol.

very 2.4 friendly. Infact the hahn kit for the 2.4 is the garrett kit with a few fuel mods thrown in and a tune. Get the GT tuner kit 60lbs and a tune and there ya go. The other kits are for those wanting only the key componets and do the rest themselves.

If I had 3 g's I'd be all over this..

well what would be cool it zzp had the twin charge kit for 2.4s lol

Without knowing, I'm assuming you could do that if you bought the s/c conversion as well. Indeed it'd be cool if ZZP sold is fully refurbished package of that stuff, but it'd certainly be costly.. But I'd assume you could piece together a s/c kit and throw the twin-charge set-up on as well..

In other options, has anyone seen the turbo kit for Cobalts on eBay? I usually would never mention something like that, however a turbo kit for under a grand needs to be mentioned. Couldn't you buy that kit and just add a better turbo to it and have an ok set up that could be safe for low-boost? I would never buy a kit like that and expect like 22 psi.. lol.

But how are the turbos on this ZZP kit? Anyone ever use that brand? Or would you be better buying a Garrett blower and adding that on in place?

You can't always just swap in turbo's.....there are many different intake/exhasut flange combinations. A twin charge 2.4 is a waste of time and money. Its hard enough haveing one form of FI going on a factory na engine.

yea thats true

yea thats true

need more info on wether there offering a shipped version of this or not ..3k installed and tune would be fine and dandy if i didnt live almost 2000 miles away lol



when could we expect a shipped kit with a tuning solution to become available ??

i will send them a email about it real soon

Well, as far as the ebay turbo kits, they're good except for the turbo's themselves and maybe the BOV. You get a crappy bov and it sticks, you're gonna pay a lot more money than even the hahn kit.

Do it once and do it right, spend the cash on the turbo and BOV for sure, the rest of the piping/lines/clamps/IC can be ebay items.

So in other words, you could get the eBay kit, but just get a quality BOV and blower? My friend is turbo-ing his B16 CRX, so he has alot of spare shit around.. He even had a cheap-o set-up on his EG coupe that was still pretty sick.. I mean, I really only want low low boost.. Not enough to really worry about blowing anything up.. lol. Is the eBay kit even sized and everything for our car? As in, the tubing and all that? I know that alot of that eBay stuff like that is kinda "one size fits all".. And that's gay.. But if it's reasonable, I may see what I can do.. But also, my 2.4 is an auto.. Will that be OK with a DIY turbo kit? I'd assume so since there are lots of turbo autos, even a distant cousin of the Cobalt, the Saab 9-3 with the 2.0T motor..

Grr. Universal. It says you need the turbo manifold and a downpipe.. Could you get both of those from the Saab 2.0T? Or what other options do you have? Let's say you bought this kit in the link.. What else would you need to make this work? Price ideas on the manifold? Could I use the stock downpipe or is it a different set-up? I have a GMPP catback, and will be replacing the header/dp/cat early next summer.. So everything will have very good flow.. I'm not worrying about making insane power, just a little added scoot.. I'm willing to work with it a bit if it looks promising..?

the ebay kit is only missing a couple things

the ebay kit is only missing a couple things

the turbo, intercooler, and other stuff

no its got all thoes its missing turbo header and i ferget what else lol

Turbo header? Can you get that from the 9-3 or something like it? I don't want to custom build anything. I want to be able to buy what I need pre-made..

yea not hard to find

So I'd need the eBay kit and the 9-3 2.0T header? Is that it? Does the 9-3 header bolt right on?

well u prolly could go on zzp and get that turbo header that have u know?? that should fit the t3/t4 turbo no prob

So you can't use the 9-3 one? I just want to figure all this out because I as gonna replace my header anyway.. So if I am gonna go turbo I'll just get a turbo header obviously instead of a normal one.. Anything else needed for that kit aside from the header?

Here's another one.. This one looks a little better..

i'd never buy a turbo kit like that off ebay or anyone for that matter......be prepared for a LOT of headaches, broken parts, etc

Hmm.. Guess I'm just not meant to go boost.. Why didn't they just make all of these 2.0T's like the 9-3's? lol. I'd like to go s/c even but I want to get the suspension and stuff done more.. I am getting tired of the wheel gap now with the 18's..

The Saab 9-3 turbo header would be fine, but keep in mind that it's a Mitsubishi turbo flange. What I would recommend would be a turbo T3 manifold from zzp (http://www.zzperformance.com/cobalt_ion/products1.php?id=867&catid=155).

It's a bit pricey, but the quality is great and it's a common T3 4 bolt flange. As for the downpipe, most people make their own. Don't worry about the downpipe until you buy your turbo, because you're not going to know what kind of flange you will need until after you've got the turbo picked out. There are many kinds of flanges and you don't want to make a downpipe with one flange, and then find a perfect turbo and it doesn't fit.

After you know your turbo, then you'll know what flange to get (http://www.zzperformance.com/cobalt_ion/products1.php?id=776&catid=155). Take that to your local exhaust shop and they can make you one with that flange and even weld it onto your current exhaust system if you choose not to upgrade to 3" exhaust. (which is recommended) :)

After, you will have to get a universal IC piping kit off ebay and an intercooler, make sure that the inlets and outlets are the same. 2.5" is your best bet, it's small enough to flow air, and yet large enough to support over 400+ hp if you ever decide to take that avenue. Try and get an IC no taller than about 7". Also, keep in mind that you will have to custom do your own brackets to attach it to your frame.

You need a wastegate (if your turbo is externally wastegated) and a blow off valve. Tial is the authority on wastegates/BOV. For the wastegate, 38mm is recommended.

Larger fuel injectors. Most setups use the 42# injectors from the stage 2 kit. This is large enough for what you're looking for. You can go larger to the 60#, but running low boost, I don't think it's at all necessary. Others can correct me if I'm wrong however. You will also have to redo the wiring harness for your injectors in order to accommodate for the SS injectors.

Braided oil lines/fittings, boost controller, turbo timer, vacuum hoses, and fuel pressure/AF ratio/boost gauges are all necessities, but most of that kind of stuff can be found on ebay relatively cheap.

All in all, I recommend you read up on how turbos work, and understand the core components of everything. How it all works, what each part does. Once you get the general idea of it all, you'll know yourself what you need.

The last page is very old, and it mainly discusses integra/honda platforms, but it's a great read and it explains everything in great detail.

Good luck piecing together your kit, but if all else fails, go get the hahn/garrett kit. You'll save time and headaches.

God is that alot of information.. lol Thanks!

hahahaha a lot of info u need lol

God is that alot of information.. lol Thanks!

No problem, and keep in mind that what I posted is an oversimplification of everything you need.


Unless you're willing to spend a year or so planning/preparing/learning, you should go with the hahn kit.

You'll get everything in a big box of joy, with instructions and pictures, and more importantly support and a community that has experience with that kit. Plus, trifecta can tune that kit to a T by now.

this thead is about zzp why u pushin the hahn kit so much? from wut it looks like this one will just needa tune

the zzp kit is a good price for 3k they dyno and tune it and also install it all u need i donno about u guys but that a steal if u ask me

When will they be shipping the kit >????? what is there method of tuning for shipped kits????:cussing:

even if they dont provide tuning with the shipped kits id take a 2.5k kit and get it tuned with hptuners right here at home..even a trifecta tune is wut...275?

I haven't heard anything from zzp saying that they are going to ship this kit.

Right now, the only kit ready to ship is the hahn/garrett kit.

yes, they will ship this kit...how else are they going to make profit?

They just need a test car before they start selling them.

please do bro lol the sooner the better ... i want this kit so bad i just hope this kit stays at a nice and low price cause iam gonna be all over it if so:cssNET:

ok well the kit itself cost only 2k the extra 1k is tune install ete... but shipping will be a lil bit tho but i will def check into it

You guys make me laugh.... :lol:

Only because I had seen the same question asked 3 times in a row in more then one occasion.

ok well the kit itself cost only 2k the extra 1k is tune install ete... but shipping will be a lil bit tho but i will def check into it

it only costs this little for the beta testers...once the kit is installed on the test cars and they start shipping, theyre not gonna give u guys this deal

ok well the kit itself cost only 2k the extra 1k is tune install ete... but shipping will be a lil bit tho but i will def check into it

coast to coast at no more than 200

it only costs this little for the beta testers...once the kit is installed on the test cars and they start shipping, theyre not gonna give u guys this deal

thats not wut they told me. even as listed its supposed to be an affordable option. if they keep it at that price they will take away plenty of people that wouldve gone with hahn

It will not be a $2000 kit. Think about it. Add the cost of injectors, IC, turbo, exhaust manifold, downpipe. That doesn't include all the misc hardware or the piping or the programming.

even if they dont provide tuning with the shipped kits id take a 2.5k kit and get it tuned with hptuners right here at home..even a trifecta tune is wut...275?

if anyone here thinks theyl get this kit for 2000 or even 2500 is out of their minds. personally, for wha your geting, should go for way beyond 3000.....

You need to buy the hahnracecraft kit if your looking for quality they know way more about the ecotec engines and they spend alot of r&d in there turbo kits. So my advice go with a hahn kit

yea well im trying to find a turbo kit that is not 5k for the kit and prolly another 1k to put on and dyno

if your refering to brandon97z post, you get the tranny tuned while you tune. Also add in a tranny cooler and your set :twothumbs

3k for the ZZP kit currently includes everything plus dyno tuning and install. Just show up with your car and 3k and leave ready to go. Once the kits are shipping, we'll redo the pricing and they will be under 3k but I can't say exactly how much yet.

Looking forward to doing bussiness lol!!!:twothumbs

oooo yea i cant w8 to turbo my car!!!!

what about ppl that are auto????

Tranny cooler will help a lot. Keep the boost low because I don't think our trannys will take over 250 TQ reliably. They're built for up to 225, so I imagine they can take at least 250.

Get it rebuilt and the 4T45 can take anything you'll ever be able to throw at it. 400+ hp.

This is good news from ZZP, but I got a question. What kind of warranty is on this turbo?

will it can prolly handle a lil more power than that

theyre rated for 325tq, not 225. the 4t45 is a beast in stock form...but you'll still need a tranny cooler

now is this base torque or torque at the wheels?

Can you link to this? I want to believe this, but last time I looked at the specs It was rated under 225 TQ.

Well, wikipedia is what has it rated for 205 ft/lbs of tq. My guestimation of 225 wasn't far off.

Good thing for us they're full of shit. I'm really happy I won't have to rebuild it...for now anyways. :)

I had actually never seen that GM site for the trannys, nice find.

can someone give me a linky to this kit i wanna see

^^^ zoomer posted a link on 1st page^^^

well i still dont know when zzp will start shipping the kit yet...

none of us know... we will have to wait and see

Ya i would love to turbo my 2.4 as well I was thinking of doing a s/c but screw that turbo it is.

yea im not s/c my car

very nice. that IC sure gets expensive fast tho..lol There is no differenve vetween stage I and stage III other than the FMIC and injectors, correct?

omg that is a good price... i wish u were in my area.

also different size downpipe and turbo has an extended tip... thats all i can see

I wounder if he would be able to email the tune for people who are not local?

Also I hope they make this kit us Ion guys aswell.

i wanna know if he will sell the kit solo, no tuning, only the parts, i can install myself and have trifecta tune it

Not much longer and the opportunity to snag a black Friday deal on this disappears...

Looks like a great deal, though on the stage 3, 39# injectors seem too small. To run correctly on my 11 psi i had to install 60#ers. Maybe its just my setup but thought i would throw that out there.

Are the HP values estimates or are they actual dyno'd facts? Anyone have #'s for these kits on an actual car?

well round feb im gonna put stage 2 in my car

it'll be good to see some #'s after ppl get these set ups

any update on the kit? when will it be for sale???

read...already is...you have to buy it and ride to their shop to have it put on

im sure more would buy if they would ship it out, not everyone needs stuff handed to them :p

^^ im sure they will start shipping em eventually. PM them and ask why they arent...

eh i wont bother, i have plans lined up with another vendor who is shipping out as soon as i pay for it :) i dont like waiting for something to ship if i already bought it lol

Bumpppp. Just talked to zzp...they will knock off 250 bucks for those who dont want the tune. And they will only dyno b4 they install not after....From what I understand.....cuz it wasnt very clear...that they will not ship the kits out...whihc is I think is dumb as hell...Iam not going to drive accross the country. I sent them an email in regards to shipping out and waiting for another response.

if they sold the kit with just manifold, turbo, downpipe, charge piping and intercooler, id buy it, i dont need injectors i woudl bu 60's anyway, and i woudl install myself, and have it dynos locally, limited the sells of the kits to locals is dumb, but oh well its their loss not our, there are loads of vendors who will ship a turbo kit ;)

ya i totally agree^^ they really want me to drive accross the country....like there the only turbo productionary

i was under the impression they only wanted the first few in house till they could get everything nailed down

not sure, might be b/c of that, but if it is, they should of put need a test car for the turbo kit, not put it up like we can actually buy it and get it shipped next day

Has anyone acutally driven out and got one of these turbo kits installed?

Something I don't like is that stage 1 and 2 both use 33# injectors.
Only the stg.3 has 39# injectors.

My garrett turbo kit came with 39# injectors and I know that mrsilent13 had tried 34# with his custom turbo kit and they were being maxed out.
