now i just called GM to order my cat back exhaust for my 2.2. and they gave me the price of 538.75 canadian. kewl. cheap. willl sound good. however the guy on the phone told me that it is the same piping exept with a performance muffler? is this true? what is our cobalt piping i know it cant be 2 1/4.... any help would be appreciated as i just ordered it 10 minutes ago.

 

i belive that is correct when i had a 2.2 the pipe was 2 1/4 i changed it to a 2 1/2

 

Ya, the stock does have 2 1/4 pipe, and so does the GMPP. But with that GM cat-back, all the bends will be mandrel bends, so you'll get alot better flow...

 

i woulda gone with corsa personally, but some people here have the gm cat-back and like it.

 

The magnaflow for the 2.2 is also 2 1/4 piping.

 

The price is a little cheaper on GM Goodwrench, how much for install and is it covered under warranty

 

I dont know the price but yes GM covers the GMPP exhaust under your current warranty. It actually is common sense because you can buy this at any chevy dealer. But from what I heard the install price shouldnt be more than 200.

 

its a direct bolt on system, just do it yourself and get a little more familiar with your ride. not to mention the fact that if i could personaly save 200 bucks, that would be going toward my next mod.

 

Don't the GMPP Exhaust tips have to be welded on? I know that they are sold seperately and don't come mounted for the 2.0

 

yep!

 

What about the ss/sc 2.0 ??? Is there a performance upgrade throught GMPP ??

no welding what so ever, i have the sport exhaust and everything bolts up.

 

no, it bolts up as stated previously.....the hardest part is getting the old exhaust off...it has to be cut near the rear wheels.

 

How long does it take to install? I was thinking about getting the Pacesetter exhaust, but no welding, and self-installation sounds like its worth the couple hundred bucks.

Where does it bolt to?

 

the GMPP exhaust takes maye 10-15 minutes to install. It uses the stock hangers to mount.
