i own a 2009 ls XFE coup and want to turbo it one day but dont know who has the best systems for the money anyone got any good sources?

 

well since garrett is no longer sellin kits for the 2.2s your best best is look into ZZPs kit or piece together your own or find a kit someone in the classifieds is selling

 

Unless your car has some sentimental value, or you are looking to ambush somebody, why not search for either a used SS/TC (probably hard to find) or bite the bullet and get a new one from a dealer willing to deal. You'll get the upgraded suspension with 18 inch wheels, a nicer interior with a sun roof and if you are lucky even a limited slip differential. It will probably be a lot more drivable in the real world also. Whenever you add a lot more go-fast parts, you usually take away some drivability and reliability. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. By the time you get finished paying for the upgrades piece meal, I'm sure you will have spent a lot more than the $24,000 (I basically stole mine through cash for clunkers) it costs for a brand new vehicle. Now if you are building a drag race machine, I'll shut my mouth and you can go for it.

 

i have to agree with the post above. i would try finding a used ss first and going from there. in all honesty you would end up paying more to mod your car and make it reliable and powerful rather then just buying an ss and throwing some bolt ons and a tune.

 

i would get a boosted one but i think its more personal to get a n/a car and boost it yourself thats the way ive always been except with my grand prix gtp lol

 

Im both ways on this. Yes it would be cool if you turbo the xfe because not everybody does it and would be unexpected by people but you can end up spending a whole lot to make it run as good as an ss/tc. Either way it will be good ****

 

well this will be my last chance to build my own car and to show people i can build one and to shut up those who think they are big and bad just because they have V8's

 

Not really buddy when the dealer offers him 6 grand and he only needs say 3 grand in upgrades...you end up losing money.
