Auto Turbo For Ecotec?
Wednesday, July 11, 2007 5:12 PM
Sorta bummed when i heard they didnt make the auto turbo kit for the 03 cavalier ecotec 2.2L. Anyone know anything about production of a turbo kit for the car? I'd rather go kit then custom. Any info is helpful for me. Thanks.

?



the hahn racecraft kit can be modified relativly easy to work with the auto no problem

all it takes is a little fenagling of the charge pipes. basic stuff. the rest will work no problem


the only reason they dont offer for autos is becuase there were grenadeign trans's and didnt want to put out a kit that would break the trans so fast

however there are pletny of solutions to that to pm me if you have any questions

I'm really confused on how the turbo kit would be different form manual to auto. The kit itself should be the same now the software for the computer would be different I guess. Just a little confused on this one.

It is different because the compressor outlet pipe is run around the back and underneath the motor. The auto transmission is much bigger than the manual and does not allow the intercooler piping to be run down there.
