Turbochargers HELP with Fuel Efficiency, buddy ! You'll probably get better gas mileage !

 

I went from an average of 27 MPG to 29 MPG with quite a few boosted pulls.

In this kit you will be provided with everything to bolt on and go. That includes, intercooler, piping, turbo, exhaust manifold, downpipe, BOV (Basic BOV, not a GReddy), fuel pump, fuel system, BoostFueler and all necessary lines, fittings and hoses to bolt this puppy on. This system is not completely worked out and up for sale yet, that is why there is no information on the website. As soon as we are comfortable with our tune and setup, we will post it here and update our website. BoostFueler is included with the fuel system and the pricing, and we will need to have your PCM sent to us for a reflash.

 

Someone's up late

 

Ok let me get this straight, Im not to much on this power adders but tell me if i got this straight.

Supercharger- sucks air in and forces it in the combustion chamber for more compression.

Turbo- Hooks to the headers,manifold and forces engine compression back into the engine in the combustion chamber for more compression.

 

No, not quite

Both turbo and super chargers are methods of forced induction. What that means is a compressor of some sort (there are different kinds) pushes air into the engine rather then the engine pulling air in by itself.

A superchargers compressor is powered by some kind of direct drive from the engine, most often a belt. It can be geared too, but that' usually airplace engines, not cars.

A turbos compressor is powered by a turbine spun from the exhaust gases being pushed out of the engine.

The only real difference is what powers the compressors.

Compression doesn't actually change at all. That's a function of the piston and cylinder combination. The amount of air being compressed within that space however is being much larger.

 

i just called in sick to work today so i can go get approved for financing 4k on my house, well 4500.00 cause hahn is doing my balt. . . nuff said

 

so ive missed a couple pages...

will it work/fit a 07 2.4 5 speed Ion??
full price?
Financing available?

sorry....

 

slight problem for me i think....
heres what the garrett kit I got came with:

GarrettŽ GT2860RS Turbocharger (this is different than the one hahn is using: garret gt2871)
Cast turbo manifold
Cast down pipe
Gaskets and fasteners
Oil and water lines
Attachment hardware
Charge air cooler
Charge air cooler plumbing
Hardware

so, when it comes to me using this tuning from the hahn kit, am i gonna be screwed because of the different turbo?

 

i think the cobalt addiction 2.5highflow dp will work if you could fit it probly is that corrct its stainless so why not.

ryan.

 

who was that to?

 

quoted because no one official ever answered my question...

 

x2, except for the whole warning thing, cause i cant do that.

also, bump for definate yes or no on financing.

 

Lol Here come the Ion 2.4 owners, I think that it will fit but it will come doen to tuning since Ion's are a little differnt compared to the 2.4 cobalts.

 

BAHAH!! you know it, we like turbos jus as much as cobalt 2.4s.... :P
the tuning willbe a little different, but not by much, i have a GM guy whos been doin the tuning on all the ions/cobalts/OBD1 and 2 here in calgary, who can do it for me relatively cheap.... sso i am STOKED!!

 

Heres a stupid question? Will hahn turbo kit void your warranty?

 

yes...of corse lol

 

Hey Banzai2.4
You say there is someone in Calgary that does tuning for our cars???

 

i got someone that'll do a tune on my 2.4L, i'm still probably going to get a procharger unless those track/ dyno numbers sway me.. though it's a good package it's still probably going to be about 1k more than i'd like after all said and done.

I just want to know because the ion gets **** on by the after market.... even though they're such similar cars... and frankly i'd like more of an equal choice

 

wow id love to see that

 

Lets say I already have the hahn down pipe and cat-back. Will the turbo manifold bolt right up?

I'm pretty sure it will, I just want to be sure before i go getting into complications. Thanks.

 

still waiting for the financing options, is the kit even online for purchase yet?

 

I have to emphasize...we are just now looking into financing, and this is a process that can take some time. Your best bet is to wait until we announce the financing program's availability. It's diffiicult to estimate how long it will take for this to occur, but I will post updates as they are available. Rest assured, we are determined to offer this option, so the wheels are turning!

We expect to begin taking orders very soon. If you'd like to be on the callback list, contact Brad at 630-553-6830 or sales@turbosystem.com.

Yes! The turbosystem is compatible with those admittedly tasty pieces.

We do not know the compatibility on Ion. Should some willing Ion owner wish to bring us his/her car for a trial installation, we can definitively answer this question. So there ya go...find someone in the Chicago region who's willing hand have them contact me (preferably via IM or email, not on this Cobalt-oriented thread )

 

again any answers here??

 

awesome sounds good. ill keep my eyes open

atleast ill save up now, so that way when fiancing is available(if) i wont have to finance the whole thing

 

This is an area I'd like to clarify, for it's potentially confusing. Yes, last year, we did develop a Super 20G Turbokit for 2.4 Manual Cobalts. Will we bring this kit to market as well? The answer is Yes, if demand warrants it. If there are enough folks who commit to it, we will put it into production. How many will that take? At least 10 pre-orders.

If you and or any other manual 2.4 Cobalt prospects want to discuss this, please pm me and we will begin a dialogue!
