SO I am going to have over 2000 to spend when I get back on my 2.2. I am looking for strictly horsepower. I am looking for brands and good locations to purchase. I really don't have too much internet speed while I am out here in the Middle East. So I am asking for your help guys. Thank you guys.

buy one of the new turbos out for the 2.2 and tell us how it works haha

sanger11

2000 just on a turbo. I think I am going to have to do this myself since I haven't received any suggestions.

2000$ wont get you a turbo setup and the supporting mods. the turbo setup alone will cost over 3k by itself. plus you will need to do some trans work so it doesnt get destroyed.

rally

yup.

So with 2K you can go for intake, exhaust, header, downpipe, pistons if you like (won't necessarily raise HP unless you mess with compression ratios) maybe a port and polish to the head.

First, get your ass back safe to Washington. Then an intake, exhaust, pretty much what rally said.

Spend the money buy putting it in your bank and adding on to it so you can purchase an ss down the road. Putting money into the 2.2 is a waste.

show off

id say cams, header, exhaust, high flow cat, header, intake.

You sir are a *** and dont deserve to be on these forums... a cobalt is a cabalt no matter what trim it is. he got a 2.2 because it fit him better then buying a ss/sc. you bought a ss/sc because it fit you more then buying a 2.2. so stfu and give some respect!

SilverBalt

ahh.. new some one had to put in there .2...

dont listen to him.. have fun go intake, exaust, header, downpipe, suspension mods.. i love every one of my suspension mods.. if your looking for good places to order from i personally have had good luck with Cobalt-addiction.com and many other vendors in the supporting vendors section... good luck man

i completely agree, he could put $10,000 in upgrades and rape you any day for the same amount of money you spent on your car. dont be jealous.

I know you said strictly HP but man those springs and Sway bar made one hell of a difference,
Currently I have purchased all my parts from TurboTEchRacing, may not be the cheapest but never had a problem and Customer service is great

You can just send the money to me and I'll spend it for you

IMADreamer

Wow, it didn't take long for some fool to come out and open his big ignorant mouth in this thread. Please quit speaking, you make the rest of us SS owners look bad.


I'm not up on the 2.2 much so I can't really help you out, but I'd either save up for some FI (2k is a good start) or go with the traditional bolt ons like intake, exhaust, header, and so on.

NITROUS !!!! thats what Im doing

celicacobalt

go turbo, save the money up for a while like i did, it will be way better than regular bolt ons

sanger11

Those are all great inputs except for the idiot one. Nitrous sounds great. I already lowered it on 18s and have sway bars. I was just thinking Exhaust, Intake, Headers, and such for bolt ons. I know the cheapest hp comes from nitrous. But I will start with the bolt ons. GMPP? for parts. I can do all the work myself. Then again I can spend 3000. I am not getting any time off out here to spend money. Cams sound like an awesome idea also. I need to do some searching on tuning. Have we figured that out yet?

How much horsepower? Guess? This is us right now in theater.

SymbioteLT

Im saving up for the Dyno tune nitrous kit.

Dyno tune Nitrous line up
4&6 cylinder EFI Nitrous System - $389.00

NitrousOxide Purge system Kit - $59.00

DynoTune Two Stage RPM Window/TPS Switch - $129.00

Nitrous Oxide Bottle Warmer Heater 10-15LB Bottles - $109.00

Sub Total : $706.00

I also got the Injen cold air intake , and an exhaust.
my goal is 200 hp to the wheels (for now)

Admiral Jedi

Airbox mod, full exhaust, 75 wet shot of nitrous. There goes your $2k. You also get over 200hp. No tuning required.

Vetteman-sssc

I have to agree with you
That is pretty rude for sure
A 2.2 is a good motor and like you said a Balt is a Balt

Just return safely and thank for supporting the USA

Your a ASS CLOWN!!!!!!
Hes putting his life on the line for us to protect our country you D***head
Have some respect!!!!!!!!!!!!

TCarter

now that one was highly uncalled for.

I will not get into it, simply because I will choose not to get in trouble on the site for calling you some choice names.


Its his car, dont tell him to get an SS....hell, you shouldve gotten a STI...no..you shouldve gotten a EVO....if youve gotten a EVO, you shouldve gotten a C5 Corvette...hell, you got a C5 Corvette..you shouldve gotten a Z06 Vette..oh..you got a Z06 Vette, you shouldve gotten a Mercedes...hell you got a mercedes? you shouldve gotten a Z06 Vette with a Lingenfelter performance build!........do you see the point?

You sir, I think should personaly drive a Pinto.

nickabud

........and he's getting paid hazard pay to do it.......... Don't get me wrong, I support our troops and have several friends in the armed services, but it is a job. If that was my thing, I would go do it too, but I have other career aspirations. So give it respect, but that doesn't give someone instant king status, so we should all be able to express our opinions without the "He's in the military, you can't say anything against him" mentality coming out and slapping us in the face. Nobody disrespected the fact that he is in the military, so I don't see why your comment was necessary at all.
