Is this for real?

Searching on amazon, I found this:

http://www.amazon.com/Chevrolet-Coba...642491&sr=1-44

Is this a real turbo, or one of those electronic ones?

it's real. i assume youre asking because it's so cheap, but that is only a turbo. you would still need the manifold, return lines, piping, etc.

I have all that. My friend who owns a shop gave me everything for free besides the actual turbo unit.

Dude... I'm confused... your asking about debadging and buying a turbo that you have all the hardware for... but you are selling your cobalt and already have an offer on it?

I would never buy a turbo kit from someone that number one, has to explain to you how a turbo works. And number two, says that your car will "basically turn into a speed demon". woo hoo.

As of like 10 minutes ago I'm probably keeping the Cobalt as well. The girlfriend wants my car, so might as well just keep it in the family. I love my 'balt, so any way I can keep it is good for me.

She's my baby. My girlfriend just called me at work telling me she had a "plan" to keep the Cobalt" I told her to try me and shes like "Well, I can get rid of my car and just make payments to you so we can keep your car around". I'm like "That's a great idea ... when do you want to get married?"
