use the search button. You will learn a lot from the site. There is a lot of good info on here. Any other more specific questions (that you can not find) just start a thread.

There are lots of things you can do. Search for threads about 2.4s that have been turboed or supercharged. Also, bolt-ons and a tune do wonders for the 2.4.

rep the 2.4 man! it all depends on how much money you wanna spend. you could buy a turbo kit and gain a lot of you can get some bolt on's. whatever floats your boat man

exactly...when i bought by 2.4 i couldnt find a 2.4 for sale around my city, but every dealer had several ss/sc in stock. i had to order mine from the factory. look at it from my point of view.... 'larger engine....more to work with.' see your destiny in f/i.

if you want an s/c cobalt try to go get one. you might as well be happy from the start, because althought the 2.4 is good enough for me...it is NOT a supercharged cobalt.
