it would be much cheaper for you to go the turbo route as stated above...the SC will be costly, merely impossible to push 270whp and much less reliable..
look around the F/I threads for mixed reviews on this everlasting debate.

yea, if she doesnt have one already you will have to get one used since they discontinued them. All I have seen is problems with them anyways, best bet would be to go turbo.

good luck though

turbo or NA...no supercharger...they are crap

yea unless you get a company that will custom build you a s/c and will make sure everything is built properly, i'd go turbo or stay na, because its rare to find people who havent had an issue with the s/c on their tc

Your wife needs/wants a Turbo, not the S/C. SC on your Cobalt does not have the same lack luster performance as one on a tC. Turbo is more efficient for us, and her goals.

with a supercharger, 9.5 psi pulley, and exhaust, i did 225 whp. not quite enough to keep up with you're cobalt. a simple turbo kit can hit your numbers with just 10 psi.

chevysssc

wow! i never knew the trd charger had issues. what seams to be the issue?

DJ08tC

the bearings go on them all the time, you can name something and it has probably happened. It is just a horrible design.

chevysssc

i guess she will have to settle with N/A. what #s are u guys hittin with full bolt ons im talkin head port n polish, port n polish throttle body, cams, header, catback, intake and tune

DJ08tC

probably 200 maybe alittle more if youre lucky

chevysssc

yea but the dealer said she couldve been able to roll over the payments on the sc into her car payments but since i hear its discontinued and its ____ty i guess its out of the picture. thanks any way for your help

chevysssc
