2006 Cobalt LS upgrades?
I just got a 2006 Cobalt LS from my brother who upgraded to a Mustang, lucky him. But I was wondering what upgrades and such that are out there to increase throttle response, horsepower, and acceleration. It has the stock 2.2 litre Eco-tech engine with a 4 speed automatic transmission. Also any cosmetic upgrades as well.
I am new to all of this but do have car smarts, I just don't know where to start, so I need a little bit of guidance on what parts are quality what needs to be changed or stregnthened when certain things are added, etc.

The budget is really limitless it is just going to take me a while to get the money I need to buy the parts. so start out with the basics and move up sorta.
Also @ Lame; Injen Cold Air Intake System Chevy Cobalt Pontiac G5 05-10 2.2L and 2.4L Ecotec - Sale Today ONLY! - Air Management is that the one you're talking about? Also what performance gain would I receive from that

Now with the Turbo kit, what are the downsides of having it, say if you got the 256 or 259 blower. and how does it compare with the both on supercharger?

Don't turbo or supercharge your automatic transmission... it's not worth the effort for only a 4-speed.
Just get bolt-ons. Intake, Exhaust, Header, Downpipe, Tune. You can even get a 2.0 or 2.4 throttle body and intake manifold.
