Its for sale for the ions. The cobalt kit is not in production yet and the only way to get one now is going on a list of testers!

it's worth it muhahaha 2.4 research will be happening soon too

4k for everything except for a tune for awesome power isn't bad... stock internals are ok to a certain point

chevy made about 240 whp on 12 psi and hung with a 2.8 pullied and bolton/ tuned lsj (right matt?).. and now hes running 23-24 psi on stock internals

until you realize that when you want to run over 400 whp you have to buy a new $800+ turbo and all you have to do for the c-2 is change a pulley

and no testing is not free at all

The larger turbos will make more power! The procharger is more like a great bolt on for people how are looking for great usable horsepower and still having a supercharger. The turbo is the only way to make major hp in an ecotec but the procharger is really fun and unique and makes good power!!

thats true....really when you think about it if you take the time to piece together a good quality kit and do it right your going to put just as much into the turbo setup as you will the procharger setup....**** i think im looking at 3500-4000 by the time im finished....but then again i have bought every part brand new
