2.0L LSJ Performance Tech 205hp Supercharged SS tuner version. 200 lb-ft of torque.

This is logically possible, isn't it?

This seems logical to me, but I want some of your opinions.


Is it possible to keep our superchargers, and add a turbo to our cars. If you think about it all we would have to do is re-route the piping for the turbo, the intake piping will go to the turbo then to the supercharger.

This would eliminate low rpm lag with just a turbo.

You can get it tuned anywhere from 350 all the way to the super beast 440whp. Only one car has done that that I've seen...on stock internals. 400 is usually the max. Yes, it is possible tho.

$2,999, plus the cost of supporting mods. 10k is too high, about 5 would cover you most likely

you are correct. But I'm not looking for a ton of horsepower. The cobalts are light cars, plus they are front wheel drive, 350 - 400 hp would be fine with me.

If I wanted a high horsepower monster i'd go rear wheel drive for sure.
