People don't want to seem to use LS2edit and claim there is no tuning whatsoever for the 2.2

Or you could pay some of these vendors to piece one together. ORRRR, you could buy the cheap turbo kit from ZZP that is for the 2.4 and it should work just fine. Very good price.

200 Whp on a 2.2 you have a few options

1. Fully bolted with Stg.3 cams, valvetrain upgrade, internals, small shot of nitrous.............
It will end up costing more $$$ in the end.

2. Buy a used eaton supercharger and parts needed for about $1200 to $1800 from a member here and bolt it in.

3. Peice together a custom turbo kit yourself for about $2000 to $3000 and get Trifecta to tune it.

4. Get the Garrett alpha turbo kit for around $3400 to $3600 and skip all the hassle of collecting parts, dyno tuning, fitting, testing. It has everything needed for a easy install and you won't need to buy a wideband.
