I've heard good things about Cavalier Connection. Then again, given that the "ecotech" isn't a motor I've ever heard of, I think you probably shouldn't be installing anything on your car.

Ecotec's (yay, no tech this time!) still fairly new, but lots of cars are going to be using it in the future (Cobalts, next Pontiac Sunfire line, etc). So I'm sure there'll be options, but for now don't upgrade just yet (I'm sure you haven't already finished all the other "small" upgrades yet - intake, exhaust, etc).

I've never heard of an "EcoTech" but i would like an ecotec swaped into my car. It would be a nice little addition.

superchargers dont push as much power as turbo dont they? and if so, can i get a site to one that sells for a 2.2L Ecotech?

Rebellion...go outside and find your car. When you get there, pop the hood and read what it says on top. I can guarantee you it doesn't say "ecotech."

I knew that, but thought you were serious about wanting the "ecotec" and not the "ecotech" lol.

hey guys i just got a 2008 malibu with the 2.4 ecotec I was thinking of getting the turbo kit for the saturn sky's 2.4 ecotec and hook it up to the mali will it work?

Wrong forum and No. The exhaust manifold will bolt up, with turbo. But nothing else is going to fit. Charge piping, downpipe, intercooler is all going to have to be custom. The SKY is RWD and the mali is FWD. Then its a matter of tuning it and there is nothing out there yet besides an FMU. Looking into HPtuners, but i will doubt there is anything for them yet.

Fuel management unit. cartech is one example. It raises the fuel pressure as boost is added to the car.

Wow...its been a while since i've had to tear into someone about a turbo setup. Its nice to have fresh meat around again.
2 Things:
1. FMU doesn't mean Fuel Management Unit, it means Fucks Motors Up :p
2. You may want to double check your EcoTech and be sure its not like my VtECh...that'd be a terrible mix-up

yea......and your point? depends which 9.3 ur talking about. the aero has a turbo v6. and the eco ur talking about is a 2.0. the turbo would be about the only thing you could take from them. i dont know if the eco's are modular like fords, so i doubt anything would transfer from the 2.0 to the 2.2-2.4
