Well i thought I would let everyone know im making a pretty detailed How To on supercharging a 2.2l Cobalt, right down to creating your own wiring harness for the injectors. I have the next 2 weeks with only closing shifts at work, so i will be working on it daily until my car is supercharged. Hopefully this makes it easier to follow in the fiture for other 2.2's. I'll keep you guys updated with what I get done on a daily basis, usually at night like this. Today, i installed 42# injecotrs and created a custom wiring harness using the stock one and the harness used on a SS SC for those injectors. I have plenty of pictures as well. Tomorrow or thursday, i will begin removing the bumper, stock intake, stock manifold, etc.
wish me luck guys, as I've never done anything this advanced before....

 

Good luck on your build! im in for pics

 

Good luck, I hope it turns out great for ya!! Just curious, what supercharger are you using, is it the M62, or something along the line of a vortech/procharger?

 

I think the m62 is the only supercharger right now that would even fit a 2.2 cobalt

 

good luck

 

good luck....hope u dont break ur 2.2

 

***** to the wall man, cant wait to see the pics!!!

 

nice!

 

Yes, I am using the M62 to supercharge the car. Unfortunately not a lot got done today due to a work party early in the day and then work at night. I did however upload the trifecta tune and the car started up and runs fine now on my 42# injectors. As stated in the OP, i'll begin disassembly tomorrow morning.
i hope i dont break my 2.2 also...lol

 

good luck, i didnt know vince could tune for a s/c already, i though he hadtn had a chance to work on a s/c 2.2??? oh well keep us updated, i tried both routes and decided to stay n/a

 

im his first SC tune. Ive already gt a base tune loaded, so once the SC is on, were gonna fine tune it. then I can make adjustments later with my piggyback. Off to disassemble some things

 

Glad to see your doing this hunter. Good luck! When i drive down to cali we will have to take a cruise

 

cant wait to see this , since ive wrecked my 2.2 last year , ive alway's wanted to get another one and SC it , subscribed for pic's !!

 

just a teaser pic from todays work...

 

Looks good. I demand moar pictars!

 

 

what fuel rail is that?

 

It's the stock fuel rail.
I submitted the how-to just now, pending moderator approval.

 

Next thing you know, my wing is gonna be in front of me...

let me know if ya need any help casey

your more than welcome to use my car as a template.

I have bwoody brackets for that heat exchanger of yours if you need em.

 

that's funny my stock 06 fuel don't look like that. gotta love gm and how they do ****.

 

That looks more like a Cavy fuel rail doesn't it, my rail is round not squared

 

woot and when your done you can give it to me

 

yup that just about what the 2.4 looks like torn apart too... we started on my buddy's
2.4 SS and after we got it torn down and ready for build, he ran into money issuses and could afford to buy the little bits and peices that he didn't already have. IE- nuts, bolts, fittings, and the little **** like that. He also didn't take into thought that the tune would cost a good penney. So we ended up putting back together, he traded it in and got the TC... It would have been sweet to get done for real

 

older Ecotecs to my knowledge have a rounded fuel rail (pre 05)

my 05 looks just like the one pictured

he can't afford nuts & bolts but he can afford to finance a new car?

sounds a little backwards

 

hell yea
