Do any of you guys know if they make a turbocharger for the 2.4l? If so wich is the best one?

 

garrett kit is what i have, tuning is a bitch. that is all...

 

I'm still waiting for the HAHN kit to come out of R&D.

 

from what ive been hearin and readin, garret and alpine are the only two with turbo setups for the 2.4L. alpine should be set and good to go due to some flash thing they do, but garret needs tuning.

i really don't pay that close attention because i am not at that stage yet

 

FOREVER....

 

i think you can get one at like wallmart... they're like 25 dollars or so... check that first... if not, try autozone

 

hey celica you got the garret turbo kit how much did that run you and install time and such. im thinkin about turboin a manual 2.4 i got but only doin it the right way.

there is no right way to do it yet, until the right tuning has been perfected i wouldnt tell anyone to turbo their cobalt 2.4. wait till i can get mine all figured out so you know what to do.

 

our hopes and prayers are with you celicacobalt!!!

 

Haven't been around in forever.. Doing some work, and doing some real work at my job has kept me busy.

But I'm researching - what are we thinking gains difference is between t/c'ing and s/c'ing the 2.4l? Would an Eaton m45 or m62 (or one of their new models..) be easier to tune than a tc application?

 

If by forever you mean this summer then yes your correct

 

I'm not gonna look everywhere - but I will post this in the General section.. anyone else heard something like this?

2008: Supercharged SS dropped from the model lineup, while the SS Coupe and SS Sedan were renamed to "Sport Coupe" and "Sport Sedan" respectively. XM Radio, side-impact air bags for improved safety, and MP3 player are now standard instead of options. StabiliTrak stability control system introduced. Other changes include the adding and removing of several colors and interior colors.

I wonder what that may mean for a dealer installed/GMPP factory option forced induction for the 2.4.. Also - what are these Solstice GXP's and Skye Redlines running? They're turbo, on a 2.4 vvt?

 

face it guys 2.4 ss is slow and the turbo will take forever..i dont want to be negative about but i guess im frustrated as well

 

No, 2.0 VVT. It's an LNF engine.

 

GXP's are a turbo 2.0 vvt,Direct injection.

 

I don't think the 2.4l is slow, I just think it's slow until DOHC kicks in. After 3500ish RPM I think it's pretty damned quick actually.

I'd just like something to help it get from 0-3500 faster, which is why I think SC may be the way to go..

 

Slow compared to what?

 

 

Turbochargers themselves aren't engine specific but flange specific. Do you mean kit?

 

Hey you know what I mean.. the high rev performance of the 2.4l is totally different than the low rev..

 

Yeah its not the DOHC that kicks in rather the vvt changing the cam phasing.

 

Hey I got signature blocked, awesome .

Sorry - it's just bad habit from my old car, which had a mechanical relay that would open the cams.

 

the 2.4 isnt slow when compared to naturally aspirated 4 cylinders.

 

soorry guys didnt mean to offend any1....

 

ooh definatly not my 2.4 well after i get some more money it sure as hell wont be slow. but then she wont be NA. shed be TURBOCHARGED woohoo maybe next year folks. well i guess thats my 2 cents if i had any sense.
