With all due respect, Jack didn't claim to be the first to go turbo.... nor will he be. I know of a few turbocharged 2.4L Cobalts.... and mine will be added to the list as of next week, well before anyone else here gets a Hahn kit.

I think maybe he misunderstood what I had said. The pics were in responce to another member asking to see my car not to show off a turbo cause clearly I don't have one ... YET!

Because all of you guys are so interested, I believe we are going to take the 2.4 auto out to the track Wednesday night for the first time, along with a Solstice GXP. It may just be my dad and I so a video will be hard, but time slips are the next best thing and those will suffice right? We havent dyno-ed my car yet and I think we will be doing that soon too. Thanks to all your interest guys.

If that was directed at me, no. HPT.
Haha... I just wanted to make sure he knew there actually are a few turbocharged 2.4's out there.
Back on topic... I'd love to see timeslips.

I've been interested in a Hahn Turbosystems Twincharge setup since I bought my SS/SC last June, but haven't seen enough data to warrant the cost. No description on internal modifications (but I'd put pistons and valvesprings at a minimum) or real dyno data on their site. I can never find the twincharged setup on their site for ordering. The site is a mangled mess. I will send them a message to inform them how difficult their site is to navigate. Once they get their sh*t straight, I'm DEFINITELY going twincharged. I would LOVE to add a turbo to my blower for the top end, though. I have a friend with the 2.4--he is going to LOVE this info!!!!!

Nonetheless, I do share your opinion about the site's 'messiness', and have put my people on it as a High Priority Item (are you reading this, Chuck and Kris?) to correct!
We apologize if the lack of information there regarding Twincharging gave you any other impressions
If you'd like, I can address our progress and plans for Twincharging on another thread. Just say the word!
Timeslips will be available after our track session sometime this week, yes. Adam's been practicing on the backroads...we will see what this stock-tired 'Balt can do!

I'd also like to point out that we've already offered this engine/transmission management solution to others who've purchased the Garrett GT system for their 2.4 Auto Cobalts, and extend the same offer to anyone who's interested. It's a well-executed solution, and may save a fair amount of time, frustration, and cash in the long run!

I Have read this thread from start to finish and I still have not heard if there are going to be stage kits for this system offered to the 2.4 MANUAL owners.Also,is the turbo capable of supplying efficient boost at higher psi. The super 16 turbo stage 2 Solstice MANUAL, stage 4 super 20G turbo.You said you did not see 400-500hp autos what does this mean for the MANUAL transmision guys ?People say this motor as is will support 400 + hp and looking at Solstice(Hahn Racecraft)with the kit supplied.Unless I misunderstand, other then what is listed in the kit there are no changes to the motor.I was hoping to see stage kits am I about to be disapointed?

***and by the way if your all so interested in more exact details for the turbo....more manual specific...then search hahn and youl find the ancient hahn turbo thread for the 2.4 manual along with exact kit specs and pictures that i believe begin on page 7 or 8 and shows everything installed on the car....a very helpful thread if you are looking for more info....it just got kinda mucked up with pointless posts.....provided hahn hasnt changed anything out******
if youd read youd see on the last page he said there is no def. answer....sorry if it comes across a bit rude

Thanks , What I'm asking is the stage 4 for this system going to require a larger turbo like it does on the solstic( super 16 to super 20 + other up grades).Should I wait?

That was their first proto kit. I believe they scraped that due to it not fitting both the automatics and manual trans cars. This kit however does fit both and thats whats offered for both transmissions. The turbo is a garret gt2871 that they are using instead of a 16g or 20g. And depending on the trim this turbo IIRC can handle up to the 400-450hp range.

Hahn, if there is any way you could email me (well_of_souls245@yahoo.com) some info on what exactly comes with the kit please(intercooler? what type of BOV? etc etc. I drive a 5 spd.), I tried checking the site and couldn't find anything. I'm impressed with what I see! I hope to hear good news about the financing situation as well. By the way, is the price of the boostfueler included? If not, how much is it? Might it be easier to go with HPTuners? I don't know if the last questions have been asked yet or not, sorry.
#197
i wish you guys would read the thread more closely before making unecesary posts....i dont remember what he said about this matter exactly...but i do believe we are ale to control the boost......and as for other people....quit mucking up the thread asking others about there car...save it for another thread or pming....
Besides...learn to spell the big words before using them

the other question was indeed unnecessary....there are you happy...and if he could have just taken a simple moment to read he would have answered his question on his own
