Have a 5 speed 2.2 with cold air zzp exhaust and eibach lowering springs wanting to turbo but thoughts on it speed is a must buy frying my engine isn't

 

Welcome! For the price that LNFs go for these days you're better off just buying one of them.

 

Welcome

 

If you got money buy a 2nd motor or supercharge your current one.

 

But I'm wanting be able to run decent boost but I did take it to a buddy who's a mechanic and said that if I change internals it should be able to handle a turbo

 

What's an LNF and the pricing of one ?

 

[QUOTE="no_ss;7554159"] As far as supercharging what internals would I need and the amount of boost I could run ? And the approx top speed I'm wanting to be able to top out about 180

 

you def arent going to want to be doing 180mph in a base model cobalt thats for sure. your gonna have to update your suspension then your going to have to dump some coin into that motor to run a super big turbo to even get to 160 lol. your better off getting an LNF which is the turbo cobalt and doing a big turbo swap on that lol.

 

I bought my LNF for 12,000
I was in the same situation as you before I had an 09 l61 put a good bit of money into it and I'm glad I got the LNF, faster than my base model would've ever been.
As far as supercharging your engine you could do like 8lbs of boost on a stock pulley size on the eaton m62.

 

[QUOTE="no_ss;7554226"] going to look into that LNF besides that what other mods would give more hp I've already done the exaughst cold air intake and eibach springs what else would you recommend

 

[quote=Kota]No mods make a difference due to the learn down system really unless you get a tune. But usually you just need catless downpipe, intake, tune, if you want to make bigger numbers on stock turbo you'll need either E47 or E85

 

[QUOTE="no_ss;7554258"] well I have a supercharger that I had gotten off a wrecked ss any thought bout supercharging the 2.2

 

you can put a supercharger on it but your only gonna make maybe 200-230whp with it unless that motors fully built and you put a tvs which is a bigger supercharger or a turbo on it

 

[QUOTE="hawkssoccer11;7554291"] that's the thing I'm already at 219 to the wheels

 

your at 219 to the wheels with no tune on a 2.2l?????

 

Welcome to Cobalt land, Once you enter there's no escape.

 

[QUOTE=Kota;7554415]there's no way you can be at 219 to the wheels on a 2.2 with only intake and no tune..
LSJ, the supercharged SS only makes 200 stock, the 2.2 makes like 155.

 

[QUOTE="hawkssoccer11;7554522"] it has a tune

 

[QUOTE=Olybaltss;7554674]210-215 stock.

but yeah, there is no way a 2.2 is making that kinda power with those mods.

 

If you were to hit the dyno your heart would be broken

 

typical 18 y/o that thinks an intake, exhaust and tune will net him 50 whp..... just because the internet says so

oh and welcome OP. Browse around and read up, there is some good info around here.

 

Not sure if op is trolling or serious...
