Has anyone got their 2.2 or 2.4 supercharged at the dealer? if so how much and how long did it take?

 

i wouldnt bother... they charge you too much to change the oil nevermind to buy gm parts then labor and idk if they would do it

 

Well I don't see a dealer doing this. It takes too much work and a good amount of knowledge to make it work. The dealer doesn't have the ability to get all the parts and pieces.

Find a member to help with install.

 

prolly arm, leg, and *****/boob

 

We did a silverado... I know its not a cobalt... But we did the a whole whipple s/c setup and everything else... Cost a couple dollars...

 

Couple thousand?

I'm guessing several days of work.

 

I don't think most dealers would even know how to do this. lol

Take it to a reputable custom shop in your area.

 

hahaha. yea i kno.. i emailed the dealer and they said they would do it... im definitly not confident enough to do it myself

 

Yea it was a couple grand... But the guy didnt care... Kept the truck another year and only put 1500 miles on it... Then traded it in on an impala... To each their own...

 

Wow a supercharged truck or an Impala. That's funny.

 

It was a nice truck too...It was an ss silverado... So dealerships can do that for ya, but i'd rather take it to a reputable shop, thas just my .02

 

yea, but that means i gotta scrounge up all the parts..

 

just buy a kit but persionaly i would recomend upgrading your suspension and braking system first because speed is no good if ur just guna crash

 

save you stress, heartache, and money, dont take it to the dealer... MOST of them are there for jobs that are done via instructions on GM's mega site... take it to a custom shop or like someone said someoine on here

 

they would have no way to tune it

 

hell i don't even know if a reputable tuner shop would want to take on the task of supercharging a cobalt... with most of those shops if it isn't a honda going turbo they don't know what do

it would be easier for you to get all the parts then most shops since you can get them used, most shops are going to look for new parts and run up the price

 

I wouldn't even **** with the dealership. I got them to put a catback system on for me and they fucked it up and my bumper got burnt from the muffler. now i'm stuck with a mini van until they fix my bumper. Dealerships suck ass bro!

 

Not all dealership techs are stupid, just most of us, lol... Actually i would install it if you brought it to my dealership, but youd pay $85.00 per hour for like 12 to 14 hours of labor maybe more depending on what all you want. I would use trifecta for tuning, and you would have to gather all the parts needed for the install. I think youd be silly to spend the money when you could do all this yourself, but as i said before not all dealer techs are oblivious to cobalt performance and modding. GL...

 

i think the only attractive thing about this would be if they warrantied it. as in since THEY installed it we get to keep our warranty.

 

there is not specific kit for the 2.2/2.4 so there is no warranty if something breaks bc of the blower...so either way, you cant warranty the engine if it blows, they dont have the know how to do it, i doubt they can work ls2 edit to even tune the car, if you were local i would help, i do sc installs on 2.2/2.4 in one day for a flat rate of $300...takes about 7-9hrs...and i do it all alone, so u could drop the car off and come back to pickit up...of course that all the install, you need to buy the parts and get your own tuning, which i recommend trifecta as they have done countless sc tunes for us
