So im still a uber noob to the Cobalts. Just bought it in march. Im not sure which cam from CompCams is the stage 2. If anyone can help me out with a link or something id appreciate it.

I really like the sound of this one. Cobalt Cammed Idle - YouTube

 

Um, well here is the problem about the 2.2L cobalts, unless your an 05-06, your going to have problems. 07-08 cobalts need to have the cams modified to work. 09 and up I am not even sure they will fit, since they use a different head due to VVT.

 

this is one of my customer
alex was stg2 cam last year. but on this video he has installed stg3 NA. those are very serious cam.

 

I got an 05. Ill be turboin it within the next year so i want some mean cams to go in it. You got a link to the stage 2 or stage 3?

 

stage 3 N/a

 

That sounds effing awful.

 

look on zzp's website. they get the cams custom and shouldn't need any modifying. if u order from comp directly u will need modification. i got my stage 2 cams from them. haven't put 'em in yet but the time is coming. lol

 

Noone asked your opinion on the sound. I simply asked for information on where to get them. Useless post to get post count up. Fail.

 

i think they sound ******* sexy. but i did not know about ordering them thru zzp means no modifications. i must keep this stored back in my brain when it comes time for me to build my motor.

EDIT: i dont see any for the 2.2's only the le5 (2.4), LSJ and LNF sad panda....

 

Im still not sure on which cam to order. Theres so many on their site.

 

i am not sure if thats the case with the 2.2 or not. but it was with the lsj cams. thats y i made sure to get mine from them. e-mail them and inquire or check out website

 

i would e-mail them then. they may not have the 2.2's advertised but u might b able to use 2.4 or 2.0. i am not sure so don't quote me on it but get ahold of zzp cuz they'll have all the answers and usually b able to give them to u pretty quickly too

 

Yes, my whole goal in life is to get my post count up on a freaking cobalt website...

Ok smartass. Since your "turboing it" why are you looking at N/A cams? At that, a stage II N/A set of cams? The intelligent thing to do would be to plan your build and buy a spec'd cam for F/I applications or get a cam spec'd to your specific application depending on horsepower.

...and yes it sounds like crap This isn't a god motor (LSx FTW)

 

Sounds awful as well to me.

 

To the two of you bashing the sound just get off the thread. Youre not posting any helpful information. I clearly stated in my first post that im new to these cars and turbos. Ive never had a turboed vehicle so back off.

And if you dont like the Cobalt website then leave?


@Melon:

Thanks for the advice. Ill be emailing ZZP first thing monday to find the right cam.

 

When did I say I "didn't like the cobalt website." Derp.

Clearly, you didn't see the part where I was trying to help you and you are getting ridiculously defensive because someone doesn't like the sound of the car. You still need to get a cam spec'd or buy an off the shelf cam for your application. If you want to buy N/A cams then turbo the car, go for it. But you won't be optimizing your investment in the cams if you buy stage II N/A cams and go the F/I route.

I am posting helpful information to save you money.

 

i have two pair to sell if you want

 

here u go

cam+comp - JEGS High Performance

or

So how streetable are the stage 3 cams? Where was the idle? What valve springs did he use? Where was the red line? Sorry I just always wondered about that set of cams.

 

it was streetable but the sound ll make people look at you.

idling was 875 i thing so

springs and valve have been changed



neutral balance shaft has been deleted

rev has been rise to 8000rpm

 

Hmmmm

 

Now were getting somewhere. Thank you. I plan on camming and turboing at the same time. I see why N/A cam would be a waste of money if i do a F/I setup. I dont know which cams are N/A and which are F/I however.

 

Which would you prefer on the JEGS website? Which is F/I and which are N/A?

 

check out allecotec.com

they sell Comps "turbo" grind cams

 

i ran sgt2 N/a with a SC. and power was ridiculus even with N/a cam. i was stock internal.
you would need a good tune and no intake leak.
