Thumbs up

i do have some money to play with, so like what about would it cost. at first i was thinking about trading it in for a 2009 SS/TC but would of taking too much of a hit buying a whole new car just for some more ponies under the hood, and also i found out that 2008 was the last year a cobalt comes with the 2.4L and the only year a cobalt will be badged as a sport model so there should'nt be too many of them on the road so i fiqure it's worth investing some bucks into it.

its all up to you on the cost, depending on what name your gonna go with. theres cheaper ones, but a turbo is NOT the thing that you want for cheap. Remember, you get what you pay for. Now if you just want some hp gains, get a catback exhaust, a DP with high flow cat, headers, and slap in a CAI, then go for a tune. all those combined will probley be cheaper than a turbo. But then again, they wont give u as much hp as the turbo, but it all depends on what you want.
