new to this forum with regards from Germany

Hello,

I`m from Germany and have a car with the 2,2L Ecotec engine. I`m sorry that it is no Cobalt. It is not available in Germany. It is an Opel Astra G Conv. and I want to modify the engine. In Germany are not many companies that have parts for this engine and so I am here in this forum and what you have and do for and with this engine in the US is.....wow!
Dragsters with 1400hp and 11000rpm.

Kind regards
Ralf

Thanks.
Here`s a foto.
This winter I will also change tyres and rims from 8 x 18 to 9x19 and 12 x 19 with 305/25 19



I`m a little bit older and in the early 90`s I had a 2,0L OHC engine in my GM/Opel.
Naturally aspirated with over 200HP at 9500rpm with 50mm "double Weber carburettor". I love this sound!

That is how I want to increase power of my 2,2L ecotec engine (of course with injection). Everything for more rpm.

What parts do I need for this?

Of course rods and pistons, no balancers, lighter flywheel, camsprings (which ones?) and what camshafts.

I do the milling of the cyl. head. Made several heads when I was younger.

I already have a complete 2,5" exhaust with sports cat and manifold

Thank you very much for some help

Ralf
