2.4L Supercharged????
I try to stay pretty updated with whats going on with the SS and the rest of the cobalt line, but I was out last night and a ton of people were telling me that chevy is coming out with a 2.4 Supercharged next year. Anyone know anything about this?????

GM is more then likely going to turbo the 2.4L for the solstice, that is why they left some parts on the engine like the oil cooler. with this turbo make it to the cobalt? who knows.
GM has released a statement awhile ago that they want to start to get away from SC motors. that is why the 3.9L and 5.3L have been created, to phase out the good ol' 3.8SC

Also, the transmission on the 2.0L Cobalts is designed to handle greater torque and hp numbers as the suspension, axles, etc. Overall I'm sure the 2.4L is capable of very impressive numbers if you're willing to put the money into it and if you're willing to invest it I'm sure it wouldn't be a waste .

i just noticed your sig , got a chuckle
just a note though , ive got a 68 el camino 327 4spd 4:10's , and a friend has a 68 SS 396/375hp 4spd 3:73's , and at the track ive beat him hands down every time , same with a friend that has a 66 elcamino 396 4spd and 4:10s , but for value for top dollar they would get alot more money than mine
if GM starts putting boost on the 2.4 it will have the same quaility parts the 2.0 does , plus the VVT , so i feel it will be a better motor in the long run

Due to the high Compression Ratio of the 2.4L VVT engine seeing it in its natural form boosted is very unlikely. The Twin Cam had a CR of 9.5:1 where the VVT is spushing 10.4:1. Even a post production kit from GM is unfortunately very unrealistic.
However the following isi the best bet of what you'll see as the replacement for the LSJ down the road. This article says "as much as 250HP" but most of the others say "at least 250HP." We'll know by NAIAS06 for sure though.
