Intake/Exhaust for Turbo

[CobaltSSTC]

What would be a good intake/exhaust for a turbocharged Cobalt SS. Ive been looking around and im looking at getting a 3" Magnaflow full Exhaust w/ 4" tip and Magnaflow High flow cat. also for my intake i was thinking about getting a typhoon cold air intake. Would this be some good mods for my car?

Or is there something better i can do(performance wise)?

[Kason23]

Im not really into the new SS/TC that much yet. But from what I have seen a Typhoon Intake is a very good choice. But if you want the best bang for the buck look into how much you could possibility raise the boost on the stock fuel system safely... with a boost controller or such


Like this programmer it looks awesome!!!!!!

Right now I'm learning about cars I don't know much about them so what exactly does the programmer do??
I know probably a stupid question..but I'm trying to learn.

do u even have a turbo for the car lol??

mmm is that even a question the thing is turbo'ed STOCK

it will allow for the raising of boost/rev limiter/timing etc... from what i seen people with just this are dynoing in the 290-300whp range

see this

Average power increase (http://en.bsr.se/moreinfo/101/): 41Hp or 19.2%.

with just the unit

super charged stock i dont think turbo

super charged stock i dont think turbo

No offense but do you keep up with cars the SS went turbo and dropped the S/c and can put down 300whp with just one mod.And run mid 13's stock on streets

.......... No. They have switched to turbo... check your info before you spread it please.


To OP, I used to have a Cobalt SS/SC and I loved it. One of the best and most informative places for you to go would be www.cobaltss.net.

Other than that, I would see if GMPP (GM performance parts) makes any good upgrade kits, im sure they do.

Heres a good list of retailers and other useful info for your car.

[Kason23]

Good deal Terror... Reps for you good sir

[CobaltSSTC]

ive tried cobaltss.net no one replies to the post..

[Terror]

^^ well, they are a bunch of dicks, and some are ricers. What i mean, is just kind of browse around... Im sure ALOT of the members have gotten the turbo model and have the same questions.

Back at ya Kason!

[hondakid2]

wow thats crazy i didnt know they went turbo!! thanks for the info i dont follow cavaliers/american cars that much didnt no they made a turbo car i thought just super charged!! sorryyy

http://www.hopupracing.com/chevycobalt.html this is a good site check it out!

[CobaltSSTC]

thanks alot guys...but is there any tunes that you guys know about that have a really good rep??
and how muc do you think it would cost?

[hondakid2]

turbo cars ushally start at like 250 to 600 for dyno tunes my evo is ushally like 400 each tune

[Kason23]

That programmer seems to come with a tune already for a stock like car. Prob the way the Diablo comes with a 93 tune for my car. Its simple to really get into tuning a flash unit but im sure there are a couple of places here in GA that could tune it on a dyno but expect 450-500$$

[Sentra]

Its usually a good bet to go with a 3inch echaust with most turbo cars. Since is make "300 hp" then im guessing the turbo is of a large enough size to go ahead with it.
As for intake, makes an intake that points in a good direction for good clean air (not water) and your set. Piping can be larger than the inlet of the turbo, just not to much bigger.

[nx2000det]

reflash the ecu and get the intake and exhaust.

Just that alone is 300+whp

If you want a lil extra - you can always go with Meth injection

[hadouken]

on a new wrx with the typhoon intake and the magnaflow exaust (tuned) picked i think 297whp or something like that i read it up on car and driver or something so i mean as long as you get it tuned you should pull alot of power out of just that

[Master Shake]

sentra made the best call.

make sure the turbo is big enough to hit 300+hp. most stock turbo's are made for that kind of power and would need a small upgrade.
