Iv been doing some browsing and I noticed that some cars say SS supercharged and other ones just say SS although there is a supercharger under the hood. whats going on?

 

^ahahahahah

anyways for some stupid reason GM decided to make a SS supercharged model with the 2.0l motor and another SS that is n/a but with a 2.4l

 

it is a stupid question im relatively new to this and i was wondering whats up about it

 

What Defo98 said,

There's "SS Supercharged" which is a 2.0L supercharged engine and then a "SS" which is a 2.4L engine with no supercharger. The difference is about 35 horses.

 

someone probably just took the supercharger logo off the car. my car has no badges i hope that doesnt confuse you to much lol

 

If the car has a supercharger and just says SS then its either a 2.4l with the m62 someone put on or they just took the supercharged badges off...

 

idk my car came with no badges so im a little confused about what it is can someone chime in

 

well silly, it's because some of them are SUPERCHARGED and the others are UBERCHARGED

 

Try about 60-70whp..

 

this.

 

If you don't have an answer dont post.................

 

isent the 2.4 ss rated at 175hp and the ss/sc at 205hp if so thats just 30 more

 

I believe 171 at the crank. lol close enough =)

 

To answer the first part of your question, GM made 2 versions of the Cobalt SS. The first "true" SS was a 2.0l 5speed manual supercharged car, specifically designed for performance on the track. The second version was a 2.4 NON-supercharged engine, which came either with a 4 speed auto, or a 5 speed manual transmission. GM claims they made two versions because they wanted to give people the performance aspect of the SS, with a more "reliable and drivable" nature. In other words, they knew people didn't like the idea of having to drive stick, so they gave them a watered down automatic.

Now, to the second part. The reason some people with just an SS badge (as oppose to and SS supercharged badge) have a supercharger is because they simply acquired parts from the 2.0l version and put them on their 2.4l N/A engine. It's a very common and simple process. Do a search and you'll find hundreds of threads on this subject.

 

2.4 ss usually have around 150-155 to the wheels stock, where as the ss/sc has anywhere from 205-215hp stock, some even more.

 

I think hes gotten enough of the right answers though its ok just take a deep breath and calm down. He could be looking at a 2.4 that someone through an m62 on.

 

there there sweetheart. No need to insult us because teacher didn't give you a cookie for being the best reader in class.

 

Haha. Sent you another one. Apparently you don't get the point. Keep it up.........
