Supercharging a 2.2

I have a 2.2 cavalier (04), and was wondering what steps were needed in order to supercharge it.

Do I need a new intake manifold?

Where does the pulley from the supercharger attach to?

Is there really anything else?

Im not sure where but i believe GM makes a kit for the 2.2 cavis. Do a search on google for the build book for it.

Im almost positive there is a build book on it somewhere too.

Just buy an SS/SC... hey, look... there's one for sale in my Sig!




But yes, you will need a new Intake Manifold. The S/C pulley will then be placed in-line with the A/C & alternator on the accessory drive belt. There are a lot of small things that'll need to happen for it to work right. You are better off asking people on a J-Body forum... as the Cobalt's are of slightly different design in many aspects.

OP, I'm sure you can look around for a cheaper price.
