Im about to buy the supercharger kit from zzp to put on my automatic lap, has anyone done this yet? let me know your thoughts

 

You're not the first so post up questions and I'm sure there will be people around to help.

I collected all of the 2.2 build threads I could find here: https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/2-2l...thread-208355/

 

i know bout the forced induction builds for the 2.2 but my question is has there been a successful build on a automatic? i only know of one and that was a turbo build on the auto and it turned out really bad...has anyone supered a auto?

 

theres a few guys in the thread link that Mr Nooblar made and posted here for you that are automatics.

The only big difference between your build vs a 5 speed build is your downpipe is longer so you will need a special automatic one made if you plan do do a header back system.

and i believe your need to modify the front upper metal support where your headlights bolt to because your engine is further ahead in the engine bay and the supercharger pulley and belt will hit it.

 

Tip : 1-Buy another Cobalt
2- Change your car
3- Dont do that wasting money plan

 

If you read through the links that question is answered - yes.

Other than what was mentioned above it might be tough to get the SS/SC intake manifold in place, gotta do some wiggling, might need to disconnect the ac line (that's what hunter did).

 

not everyone can afford to buy another car which is why they work with what they got...

 

Thanks, zzp has a set up for automatics but they only send the tune to the manuals so I would have to hit up trifecta, so 2000 for the super kit, 350 for the header dp combo, and 200 for the tune damn! And then tax, shipping, odds and ends like spark plugs oil and **** like that I'm looking at a goo 3000

 

You would be better off trading in your car for an SS/SC and losing $3000 in the flip.

 

True but I bought this car brand new and put way too much money into it to just get rid of it, and any used lsj would already be ragged out buy some kid

 

exactly^^^^^^^^^^^

 

i would go for it! i would have chosen a turbo set-up but the s/c on a 2.2 lap auto sounds sick!

 

I'm built engine and built auto tranny...

 

go for it, there are tons of S/C auto's on here some runing zzp's kit others put together from scratch. its well worth it and you def wont regret it

 

Posts like this make you look like an *******.

 

I'm a SC auto and running great.

Only issue I'm having is idling but thats all in the tune.

 

its all about the tune. auto or manual that does not matter. the it can not be done response makes me mad how many people here have twin charged their lsj

 

I'm auto supercharged with the zzp stage 2 kit. Power difference is night and day. The major problem with the zzp kit is the intake system. I thought it was the tune at first but it was the intake. I had vince tune it. He told me I should try another intake and see if there was a difference. I bought the injen intake and the idle is 1000x better. So when you get the kit plan on getting another intake. I also know that all the parts zzp puts together are used before hand so there may be some problems with the supercharger like there were with mine.

 

Yeah, it is possible on the 4T45E. Just a few clearance issues you'll have to work around on the headers... but that is do-able.

Since you'll have the car apart anyways, go ahead and do a dual pass setup and option B (You should have room since you will remove the OEM air box.

As far as actual install, follow most of the guides for the L61. The only real difference that I know of is tuning, but Vince of Trifecta can do that.

 

Alright, so i also want to throw a zzp supercharger on my 2.2, but they say i would have to go to there shop to get it dyno and make a self profile for my car. thats all fine but i rather work on my car being that its my car. knowing that there pros and all makes me feel a little better. just i like to do it on my own. the only problem is, if i get all gm parts from there ss/sc will it work on the 2.2? and what do i do about the computer with the programing knowing the 2.0 computer will not work for the 2.2. tips/advice?

 

turbo

 

I dont look like an ******* its just not the right car to do that.

Buy the righht car and after come back and we'll talk about it

 

None taken just already have the car and want a challenge cuz I've built up v8 and that's not to hard.

 

Wow, two ******* comments in the same thread. Congrats.

LAP 2.2 can be ran with super or turbo just like any other of the ecotecs.

Let the OP do his thing. He will love his car more than an LSJ because he will have put his time money and sweat into it.

Lastly, who are you again?

 

hahaha this guy ^^^
