Cobalt SS/SC Twincharger Update
I just emailed Hahn Racecraft on some release dates. According to the authority, Hahn will release a bolt-on 3in exhaust for the SS/SC in 4-5 weeks. I also asked them about the twincharger kits as well. They said release date should be in early Fall. Seems like it might be worth waiting for to me. So those of you that are fabbing your own stuff, and spending too much time and trouble over a better power adder, it might be a good idea to wait it out for just a few more months and see what Hahn has to offer. Anyways, I don't know if everyone already knows this, I just thought I'd mention this bit of information. Hope is just around the corner.

I spoke to Bill yesterday @ Hahn, and there is no date or timeframe for the turbo for the ss/sc. You may want to call back whomever you spoke to for clarification.

bill hahn jr , does take a while to release things , but the quaility is top notch
also when he releases something he wants to make sure , no one is going to have issues with his system , they are well thought out and tested , and re-tested , just to make sure you get a good long lasting system , and have a trouble free system on your car
ive met and talked with bill a few times , and he is a good wealth of knowledge , and would rather take longer to get to the market just to know his products are quaility

I'm awaiting clarification from the replier. I'm not sure who said this, but really I don't care who said it. I just want the information to be credible.
With that said, I would love a twin charger system that actually put down some crazy amount of power, much like the kits they have for the SRT. I just don't think its going to match the 425whp that those Neons put out with nothing but bolt-ons.
I probably won't wait. I imagine I'll just have an M90 blower fabbed with a nice intake and exhaust and call it a day.

Go to their website and see for yourself. It's discouraging to me. So I'm not gonna look at it again.

From a 12 second neon RT owner i just called, his posts under MagnumRT.
he also mentioned that the sidewinder style intercooler are garbage, he had to redo the end tanks to convert it into a left and right pass system

I'm doing the Prototype Cat-Back Exhuast for Hahn, they should be done with it for me Tuesday July 18 says Hahn. I'm scheduled to test fit next weekend, I'll get some pics and video up ASAP if all goes according to plan. 3 inch on a pretty much stock Cobalt, I might be wanting to sell or trade for a 2.5 Corsa.
