Has anyone heard of any good cold air intakes or any real good performance parts if that for the cobalt ss 2.4L not supercharged. I found a Injen Race Division Cold Air Intake System Chevy Cobalt 2005-06 2.2L and 2.4L Ecotec at

http://www.turbotechracing.com/produ...idproduct=1269

and was wonderin if anyone had heard anything about it

 

I have one, it rules!

 

best selling intake for the 2.4L right now and we have a lot in stock can have you to you by about Tuesday of next week.

 

Get it, TTR has the best stuff right now

 

I got the Injen on my 2.4 setup as a CAI. Love it and I got it from TTR too :

 

Just a question, is it hard to install O_o

 

Took me 10 minutes with a screw-driver

Taking out the stock airbox is a little more difficult, that takes about 45 minutes with a ratchet set.

I highly recommend this kit, its definitely worth the time.

Order it from TTR they have the lowest prices

 

I just got mine from TTR last Saturday and put it on same day. I just used it as SRI for now. I will add the extra tube to make it full CAI later. So far I love it.

 

I just ordered mine from TTR.

 

Hey guys... now.. i know NOTHING of how to install this stuff... where would I find someone to install if I decided to purchase this? And usually how much does the Labor cost?

I live in the South Hills of Pittsburgh...


And what does this exactly do for you? I have the 2.4 SS Coupe. I know it adds HP... just wondering exactly how much and if it helps with Gas Mileage or anything?

 

its not difficult to install just follow the instructions but if dont trust yourself then i dont think that taking it to a shop would be that exspensive... less than you paid for the intake anyway.

 

yeah seriously, I'm 16 and it only took me 30 minutes WITHOUT the instructions

 

yay for searchs!

Tons of intake threads

 

From my limited understanding of a CAI, it brings in cooler air from outside of the engine compartment at a higher flow than the normal stock intake. This allows your engine to use cooler air, which is more dense. Denser air + more fuel = more power. I heard that it was something like for every 10 degrees F drop in air temperature, it's about 1% HP and torque gain. I don't know how accurate that is... but that's what I've heard.

If you just install the short ram version you don't see as big of a gain, but still a little. The SRI still takes air in from under the hood, so it's the same temperature. However, it does increase the flow of air, so you do see (and actually hear) some gain.

I'm not really sure about gas milage though. At first thought, one would think worse gas milage because of more fuel consumption (it is a performance part afterall). But then again, more power may mean less need to throttle as much. I don't know... I'm kinda new to all of this too.

Anyone else know about the gas milage changes with a CAI?

 

I can help you with this...I have done about 50 installs of CAIs on various cars.....PM me.

 

on my short ram i feel virtually no heat around the area of the filter location

 

hey i no ther is a how to on installing the CAI on the 2.0 s/c but can someone make a how to for the 2.4l ss n/a with pix plz that would be awsome!

 

I'll do it when installing mine...

 

k thx no when thatll be? cause im getting mine in like 1-2 weeks!

 

Ill try to remember to take pictures of mine on monday.


THANKS TTR!

 

No problem, let us know if you have any other questions.

 

Should be within the next week or so. And thanks to TTR for prompt shipment and excusite customer service!!!

 

I got the Injen for my 2.2L and would say you just gotta get it and get it from TTR. You'll get it in no time and I can tell you an easier way to install it than the directions that come with the kit.

what about for the 2.4L engine does it fit on the same as it would on the 2.2L

 

The 2.2L and the 2.4L have the same air intake systems and install the same way. It's one of my posts under a thread started by someone else.
