Hi to all the Cobalt NATION!

My name is Andy Williamson, and I manage and help run the www.gmtunersource.com site. My company works for GM - as we handle a lot of the Youth Automotive Efforts etc.

We work with GM Racing - for the Ecotec Racing programs like the Drag Programs and Drift Program.

We also work with the GM Tuner Tour - that makes its way around to the HIN and other shows.

Enough of that stuff.....

We just got done with the GM VIP Party tonight here in Las Vegas. We are out here for SEMA - and I can tell you this, SEMA is happening!

GM Tonight officially unveiled the new Cobalt SS for 09, which will go on sale sometime in 2008 late in the season.

This car is amazing. There are some really nice upgrades, that a lot of you will like - Im sure.

Im beat... been up for 24 hours.... But wanted to toss out some photos for you to check out.

Photos aren't the greatest - but will do for now.

Oh - and yes this Turbo motor is to die for! Sick front mount from factory and all!

Hope this was a good first post. Love the site!

Enjoy the pics....

Thanks for having me!



Here are some more...

 

i thought it was a 2.0 not a 2.4 thats a 2.4 valve cover

 

You said photos, I only see one. I would like to see some pics inside the engine bay and also the FMIC. Looks good though!

EDIT: I spoke too soon. Sorry.

 

VVT head

 

It is a 2.0, the valve cover is different than the LSJ cover, just looks like a 2.4

 

who cares bout the valve cover...u got a turbo'd balt thats a 2.0L TURBO...so just start drooling

 

Are you ignorant to the fact that the LNF 2.0L has VVT and has a similar valve cover to the current 2.4L's that also have VVT?

 

ahh ok it threw me off...odd intercooler pipe to its flat

 

probably flat for fitment reasons

 

I personally like the LSJ's valve cover better, and its missin' an SC.

I'd like to know if the door inserts are the same material as on the 05-07 cobalt ss sueprcharged. If it is, I'm buying those ASAP!

Also, are the stock brembo's the same rotor size as the Cobalt SS Supercharged's and are they a direct replacement? I may pick some of those up too.

 

can u say restriction on the airbox and intercooler pipe..i bet u change those and u got ur self even less lag and more WHOOOOOSSSSSS PSHHHHH

 

yea i'm just wondering if i can use that piping for my balt i'm tubroin my 06

 

also does anyone knw how the internals are on this car...did they make them weak again or did they actually put some forged mo'fo's under that hood

 

Same internals. There are too many of these threads around

 

i'd say they used the same..if there using the same tranny i bet the use same pistons and clutch lol

 

theyre not using the same tranny

 

yea i thought they were just with the no lift shift thing

 

same internals?so wats the point of buying the lnf than?u just get a turbo and more car payment increase..

 

I thought they were. What are the new trannys. the LSJ's use the Getrag F35's right?

 

sweet pics man...thanks for taking the time to come on here and upload them for us to see

 

Wow those pictures are awesome im really liking those rims.
cant wait for more pics and info on the car!!

 

The cobalts internal's aren't weak. The fuel rail and inefficiency of the stock SC were its main problems. You've seen it. Turbo your LSJ, over 300whp, no problems....the cobalts internals are similar to that of the SRT's if I am not mistaken.

 

yea its the same tranny i'm tellin you just with the no lift shift

 

What more do you need? All the info and pics are here.

 

how can it be the exact same tranny with no lift shift, correct me if im wrong that would be impossible without chnaging the tranny a bit
