Tlip06,
Yep they are getting the same turbo engine as the Pontiac Solstice and Saturn Sky Redline
2.0 Ecotec Turbo 260 HP 260lb-tq.

Cobalt will be FWD though.
Solstice and sky are both rwd.

 

they are going to be some fast cars

 

Check out our 2008 Pontiac Solstice road test results and 2008 Pontiac ... GM pegs the turbocharged Solstice GXP/Sky Red Line at less than 5.5 sec 0-60, ...

spacerider the weather here has not been to good. Two weeks ago I did not touch my monte. It was snow dam near covering my whole car. Actually I just got it washed earlier today for the first time in weeks. In the summer I wash my car every couple days (gotta ride clean). We always get hit hard in march though. That was are last big snow storm though.

Can't wait for spring and summer.

 

I know a guy in GErmany had a 2.? ecotech motor in the Cavalier. it was a screamer also.
then right before i left over there he was adding a supper charger.

he had tons of work in to it . between the mods,and the motor i think at one time he said it was like 30-40grand worth of mods and motor work done.

but i have to say he made me want to have a cavi LOL

but the monte was sooooooooooo much more comfortabel to drive
