New to cobalts

Hey guys im still thinking of buying a cobalt sedan. The thing i want to know is can you make good horse power with these 2.2L with n/a stuff replace like basic stuff then maybe after go more in the cam and pistons maybe. And exterior do they make any front lips lowering the car with same nice wheels and getting the stock normal wing. I just want some feedback of what you know about the 2.2L if it at least worth. Cause im was looking around couldnt find any thread that was talking about n/a power maybe i was just blind lol.



oh p.s my grammar probaly sucks... i found this on autotrader and im not sure yet

You can find plently of exterior stuff. But you won't get good HP with a 2.2 without a turbo.

I'll leave that to someone with more experience with the 2.2...I just know everyone on here says no power without a turbo. Good luck man.

You should go with the 2.4l, I have the 2.2l sedan. Its a nice car for the price but the power sucks. I don't personally know anyone with a 2.0l but I often see threads on them breaking down or having lots of problems.

The 2.0s only have a lot of problems when stupid people put ridiculous tunes on them without supporting mods, or put a tiny pulley on without supporting mods. Stock, or bolt on, SSSCs, don't have a lot of problems.

get the 2.4 if you're considering doing internal work... Canned tunes are garbage and that is all that is available for the 2.2. HPT & 2.4 FTW

the most your gonna get out of a 2.2L with full bolt ons is prolly around 175-180 HP, thats like what the 2.4L has stock.

NWAE has full bolt ons and a "tune" and dyno'd 155 to the wheels, ~20WHP over a stock 2.2.

You could get around 180 at the crank without cams or piston change.

Fully bolted and tune.

NWAE needs the 2.4L manifold on to pick up 5 or ten more HP

190 maybe at the wheels on a 2.4L fully bolted with SS/SC injectors.

The SS/2.4L will have a lot better overall quality as far as interior and exterior. If you can get one used for 12 or less go for it.
