yeah, well the turbo 2.0 ecotecs were stock rated at 260hp/260tq.
i had a sky redline with the 2.0 turbo, i did an the GM stage II turbo upgrade which brought it up to 290hp/325tq.
I also added an aftermarket intercooler, hard IC piping, gmpp intake and catback which added at least another 30-40 hp.
So figure i had a solid 325hp at the motor and at least 340tq.
Fuel economy was still in the high 20s

Only issue is youd still need the complete direct injection fuel system.

The fact the turbos were better is why the later Cobalt SS's were switched to turbo and no longer supercharged.
