I've been very interested in doing this turbo swap for awhile, and wish I didn't have so much **** going on this Winter or it would've been done. I should've done it when the transmission was out for even easier access to the turbo

Honestly... I couldn't imagine wanting > 350-375whp on this car. I think that would be quite the sweet spot.

 

I am also interested in this upgrade, all I have is a dp and a sri,is that enough to hit about 370whp with a new tune. Are bigger injectors and a fuel pump a must? Or a new intercooler?

 

You could probably get pretty close. It will take a bunch of tuning by a good tuner though, so expect to pay a good penny at the dyno. An intercooler would be recommended since you will have to push a fair amount of boost to get there.

 

True..our stock injectors and fuel pumps arent issues rite?

 

Well, you may need to raise the fuel pressure through tuning, but there are no performance replacements of either at this point in time. They have not been issues yet.

 

maybe it's just me, but just the 829 dollar price of this upgrade seems unreasonably expensive.

 

It all depends what you are looking for, really. Its a great upgrade. Its more responsive than a GT28, and will flow high enough at higher rpms to provide a good powerband. Its a direct bolt on, which will save cost in the end, as opposed to a GT28 bolt on kit.

This is ideal for those who are AutoX'ing, or DD'ing their Cobalt.

 

This was originally suppose to be a "true bolt on" for the LNF. Is this still a true bolt on or do you have to have a bunch of other crap to make it work?

 

Are you talking the S20, or the upgraded stock turbo?

 

The Hahn 20g, I know the upgraded turbo wheel is I've done a lot of research and talked to Hiltu about his.

 

Oh, ok/. Just clarifying. The S20 will NOT likely be that cheap. Knowing Hahn, and knowing the price of turbo's these days, its not likely. I know BTF is machining his own turbine housings to make a bolt on kit, and i think it is still about $1700.
