im not impressed with the SS, maybe i had to much buildup to it?

 

Give it a rest

 

all I said is i wasnt impressed? lol now i cant even have my own opinions?

 

If you want to act like a fanboy go ahead.

we all know your opinion from your other 50 posts on this thread.

 

Go chevy!

 

Well that I can't agrue with

 

 

i knew a turbo 2.2 would own an ss

 

Let's have a contest..whaever mod the 2.2 does, the 2.0 will do. Then we'll have a contest. Besides, you will spend the same, if not more than buying an SS once you upgrade the tranny, tires, wheels, brakes, and exhaust. Oh yea, BTW, if you make displcement an issue, I'll just bore out my motor, now what do you have to say?

 

Im going to laugh when a 2.4L comes over here

 

That's fine too. Put anything you want on your 2.4 or 2.2 WITHOUT tocuhing the inside of your motor. In other words, all the bolt-ons and boost you want, as long as the inside of your engine isn't touched. then a 2.0 will do the same, then see what the outcome is.

 

well for me i like both cars in different ways but chevy didnt care about power when they built the ss, if they did they would have made it to compete with the srt 4 but they didnt , they wanted reliability so they went with a supercharger which is fine for a daily driver but it wil never compare to a turbo and twin charging is never good so an ss may be able to be fasterr but it will have to scrap the supercharger to do it

 

This is actually the main reason I asked what turbo kit he was running and if he had pics...I didn't want to outwardly call bullshit but it's pretty tough to believe anything without some sort of proof and at least seeing the kit installed would have been a start. There's just a number of inconsistencies between his original post and the single reply I am assuming in response to my post about re-building the engine...and I don't know about anyone else but I wouldn't be wild about blowing 8psi worth of hot air into my engine.

I also believe and T/C 2.2 could run with a stock 2.0 but as for some who seem to believe the 2.0 doesn't have much potential the simple fact it was built for F/I pretty much throws that theory out the window. Try upping the boost to 10 or 12 psi even with a S/C on the 2.2 and report back to us what happened...I'm sure 99% of us know what the outcome will be .

You also can't compare the price difference between an LS and an SS/SC directly since there are more differences between the two vehicles than just the S/C under the hood. Do the research and you'll find to bring the LS up to nearly the exact specs of the SS is going to cost you a hell of a lot more in aftermarket parts than the $4000 to $5000 difference.

Permafried-

 

I don't know about you guys, but I'm not buying this story at all. Not to call you out or anything but can we get some pictures. Furthermore, why haven't you told anyone who asked where the kit came from. This project seems like a big deal I don't understand why you wouldn't be anxious to show off your handy work.

 

it hasnt even been 24 hours, holy ****, give the guy a break
he's getting so much **** for this post
i believe him

 

.... 2.2 and 2.0 both have a lot of potenical but right now at this moment ihn time 2.2 has more aftermarket parts =)

 

no it cant. do you plan on holding that nitrous down through all 5 gears? to get that "220" HP if it actully does give you 75 hp? You only use nitrous at WOT. So when your racing your 2.2 cobalt ur going to be using ur 145 hp till you get to either 4th or 5th gear when u can have the time to hold the nitrous down for 10 seconds or so.

Ive decided to end with this, engine is a 2.2L

Go ahead and ramble on though just thought this was interesting...

 

Holy **** ppl ! This troll must be laughing his ass off about this one. Are all of you too young to know that "JiveTurkey" is 70s slang for "bullshiter" ?

 

^^ you would know, tio lol

 

i think a 2.2 turbo would beat an SS but i still love the ss

 

people are sooooo worried about voiding the warranty. Man chevys are good cars, the chances of you engine blowing is low unless you got a lemon or unless your putting to much stress on your engine without upgrades.

 

Exactly. "Too much stress on your engine without upgrades" is key point here.

 

yup i like the ss's i wanna get some inserts in my leather seats of orange, might get a upholstery shop to do it, it would look bad ass.

 

i cant wait till i get some boooooooost, gotta start saving my money so i can get some stuff by summer
