Supercharged sport?
Can a 2008 sport still be supercharged because of the whole different ecm for 2008 thing? Because I've been thinking about going this route, and want to make sure it can be done on a sport. I don't think a sport has been sc'ed yet, I haven't read about it. But would anyone know if it can?

same thing as the 2.4 SS, u tune the same way, u boost it the same way
|
x2... as long as u have a tune its possible
|
I'm saying because the 2008 ecm is different and I know there's been issues on tuning a 2008 cobalt. I've asked a member whose local to me if he could tune my balt for now with hpt, and he said he couldn't because I have a 2008 ecm. That's why I ask this cause he said I can't be tuned. And I can't go sc if I can't be tuned.
Also I read that 2.4's can only be boosted like up to 5psi because of the compression. That doesn't really sound like much and doesn't sound like you really get to use the sc to it's full potential. Or is it we don't need a lot of psi cause the compression makes up for it? Sorry kind of a n00b to this, and just trying to gather info. In a way that kind of stinks, cause I'd like to see the boost gauge going all the way up haha. Oh yeah, and why is there no videos of any 2.4 sc's? I wanna see some runs from a 2.4 sc! |
Go to youtube and search 2.4l cobalt supercharged, theres acouple of them...

Oh AWESOME thanks for that link! Get some more videos like a fly by! Also how come I was told by a member here that he couldn't tune me with hpt cause I'm 2008 if clearly you've gotten a tune and some others? Is he just being an asshole?
ls2 edit has and i will be using that, in addition were using the aem f/ic for now which is a nice unit |
Oh well I dunno then I gotta find someone locally that might not be easy since there's only really one well known tuner in my area. Would I be able to have a local shop install and tune for me if I can't find a tuner?

i have my tune from trifecta lol .. i luffz it ... then again it DID take a big leap of faith for me .. since i do have tuners around here .. but the decideing factor was vince was the only one that'd tuned a boosted 2.4 before and he was the cheapest lol |

Shit, ZZP has a 2.4 running on 21psi. Needless to say it is a ticking time bomb..

Hmm my best bet is probably to go with trifecta then. I live in NYC. The only tuner I know of is 06blackg85ss and he only has HPT. I don't want a blown motor from too much boost though :lol:

Well I'm not posting publicly where I live, but it might be a while before I go SC. I don't have the $$ right now. Besides I'm hoping that by the time I save up and get all the parts I need, my warranty will be half or almost done so it kind of works out. But it's definitely something I'm thinking about doing. Would you be able to install and tune me when the time comes?
