I read somewhere a company sells a turbocharger for the supercharged cobalt, so it will be supercharged and turbo'd? is this true?

 

tags turbo is just a turbo kit...drop the supercharger and strap on a turbo...now there are cars that have had a supercharger and a turbo but to my knowledge the cobalt doesnt have that.

 

tag was working on a twin screw but i havent heard much of updates, also hahn racing has a twincharge setup you could run, most people are going straight turbo tho

 

Hahn has a kit like you're talking about. I haven't heard of it actually working though. The only guy I heard of buying one ended up selling it. I guess it's just a tuning nightmare!

 

ive been seeing a bunch of stuff about the twinscrew project but still cant figure out what it is haha can somone enlighten me...and yes ive done some searching

 

This explains the twin screw pretty good.

thanx now i can understand the hype haha

 

Turbochargers themselves are universal as long as they match up to the flange of the manifold.

its not really finished... but HAHN RACECRAFT is doing that

FIND IT HERE

simply dropping the s/c would be better..


can someone give me some good rep?

 

thanks guys

 

i believe donna (bad girl) is running a twincharger setup

 

excuse my stupidiity but why are people droppin the chargers and puttin on turbos? is it just preference or is the turbo better for our car?

 

more oppertunity for advancement and HP achievment

 

some people prefer turbos over superchargers but they both have advantages and disadvantages but its really up to you

 

It's because our supercharger is inefficient and once you begin spinning it over a certain speed it creates more heat then horsepower. Since there is no viable supercharger swap for our cars right now people are dropping the supercharger and going with a turbocharger to get extra horsepower. Although I've seen very few people do this yet but it's been a hot topic for a month or so now.

 

Turbo's can generally give more HP but not as quickly or as soon as a supercharger can. (they need to spool up)
It's a good thing for FWD cars because if your try and dump too much power through the wheels from a dig you'll either burn the tires up or wheel hop and snap an axle.

Plus from what I understand Turbo's generally last a bit longer. Since they aren't boosting 100% of the time.

 

I believe her car hardly runs as well. I saw it @ HIN though, the only cobalt there, it would do a lot more for me if I knew it ran
