i thought you were seriously ******* around about getting a cobalt. your truck is what made me want to start doing more than a cat-back on my truck. what are you planning on doing with it now? surely not sending it to the scrap yard like your sig says....right?
i feel for your truck right now.....

If your not going to swap in a V8 or do a turbo V6, then you haven't earned the turbo 6 logo in your avatar. Or at least make it into a turbo 4 logo.

So what does the 2.0L have in common with the 2.4L? I've read they're similar in architecture, but will the 2.4 swap in for the 2.0? I say you build a 2.4 for boost and swap it in and keep the turbo and DI. 2.4L is a big 4 banger.
Or you can just confess and say this is all just an April fool's joke.

Most definitely no joking going on here bro... besides, its Only March hahaha
Ive compared it to the 2.4L in my mom's HHR and it looks very similar... I think just a forged 2.4L shortblock under this head and a little better turbo would do pretty well, I could keep the DI, and all the updated goodies. That with a little better hairdryer on it and I'm sure it'd scoot pretty good.... I'm suprised at how the stock setup isnt laggy like I figured it'd be... they probably stuffed the tinyest exhaust side on there they could get ahold of. I dont know the specs on the stock turbo, other than, small
Could someone photohack me a Turbo 4 logo??
Carey, the cab and frame will probably be crusher bound once I strip everything off I want.... but the cab and frame will probably be all thats left.

It's hard to make it so it doesn't look like a 9.
