yes but good luck searching for one with the same dimensions as the garrett one

you'd probably have to modify the piping a little to fit...

 

How about a essentials kit plus the upgraded turbo? the one from the GT3xxx series.. for us LSJ guys that want a good start at going turbo for a good price?

 

how long is this going on

 

its only cheap because there is no intercooler

 

there seems to be a lot of people who want this turbo, heres my idea. start a group buy for a kit with intercooler?

 

a lot of people want but who's actually got the funds

 

Not many people have the funds. I don't...at least not till I get my tax refund check.

 

I'd do a group buy for May, anyone?

 

im in

 

would be nice for them to reply to us

 

x3 and by may i could do it for sure.

 

wat kit would i get for a 2.2, its 100% stock

 

2.0 kit from hahn, the lv4 one..in stock ready to go i believe all bolt on to your car, would just need a tune

 

subscribed to see how this all plays out

also intrested in a may group buy

 

I got my Turbo kit, Thanks Garrett I Luve IT!!!

 

We need a sponsor/ vendor, TTR!!! , Garrett!!!! Hahn!!!! Group buy, give us a lili discount, I'd be willing to put somethin down like ARK did for coilovers!!! Buyout in May???!!!

Maybe TTR could give bonus tuner points or somethin?

 

To the 2.4 '?'. Yes, this kit will work just fine, you'll just need to modify the piping a bit, get a 2.4 specific tune and get some larger injectors.

 

so the 2.0 kit bolts on to the 2.2 engine with no problems, and i saw on another place that its only good for manuals, is that true?

 

A 2.0 (lsj) kit would not work for a 2.2 at all. The LE5, L61 and LAP are all fairly similar so far as design and dimensions.. the LSJ and LNF are a good bit different. Not to mention, an LSJ or LNF kit would likely put out so much boost it would blow an L61 to ****.

 

To answer a few questions:

1. Is the price lower just because there's no intercooler?
No. The price has been dropped on all kits, not just those with intercoolers. The Essentials and Essentials Plus kits never had intercoolers included and have been sliced in half.

2. How long is this going on?
That hasn't been set, but we're looking to get these kits out of our warehouse and into some GM's.

3. Does that mean you'll no longer carry them?
After this promotion is over, you won't get them at this price again. We still plan on carrying inventory to service the kits, honor all warranties and provide backup parts.

4. Can we get a group buy on the intercoolers?
Not from Garrett. Sorry. We are currently out of the intercoolers needed to complete the kit. Otherwise, it would have been included in the kit originally and this question wouldn't have needed to be asked.

5. Which kit should I get?
For the 2.2L manual tranny, I'd go with the Alpha kit. Pick up an intercooler and you've got everything you need. I've driven it and it's a good time! 2.4L or auto, I'd go with the GT Tuner. As I've said before, we developed the kit for the 2.2L manual transmission, so it is meant to fit that properly and I can't vouche for perfect fitment on the 2.4L or automatic transmission versions. I've seen it work, but I don't have the specifics of how to make it happen as I've not installed a kit on either of these options.

6. Can I get a bigger turbo?
I'm sure that's a possibility, but you'll have to talk it over with the distributor. Go to www.TurboByGarrett.com to find the nearest Garrett Performance Distributor. Keep in mind that you'll also need a custom tune and fueling solution with a different turbo (or engine or transmission).

7. What will the price be with a different turbo?
I don't know. That will have to be on a case-by-case basis and discussed with the distributor. Garrett does not sell directly to the public, so I cannot quote you a price. Sorry.

El Mariachi - I'm glad to hear you like the kit! I hope you get a lot of good years out of it!

there is still no tuning for the 07 models right?

 

[quote]there is still no tuning for the 07 models right?[quote]

there is if you go with ls2edit im savin for it for this summer/fall, but there are a few on here who have done it. unless you want basically a one time tune then call vince at trifecta ( i only say that because you have to send it back to get it re tuned i believe)

 

Correct. The tuning module is for 2005-2006 Cobalts with 2.2L engines coupled with manual transmissions ONLY.

The Garrett tune isnt that great but it gets the car up and running, I know I was the first one to email them about the SAI problem not being programmed out, IDK if they have fixed that now, but get re-tuned byt Trifecta

 

i have the money and i may be willing to drop on this....but noones offering this price
