that engine is fine for what you want. 300whp stock block all day. use hptuners to tune it and you'll never have a problem. aluminum 2.2 block, iron sleeves from the factory.

I'd say the cheapest way to get a nice boost in power would be to sell it and buy a car meant to go fast.

Or you could check the junkyards, wrecking yards (think towing service), and impound lots religiously to check for wrecked, stolen, abandoned (hey...it is a cheap GM car) Cobalt SS Supercharged and just yank the motor, tranny, computer, whatever else out of it.

If nothing else you should be able to use the supercharger off of it and put the rest on eBay. But I don't know anything about GM's so I might not be correct.

I love it. So your "sleeper" will be lowerd with rims and tint?

Real subtle there. no one will see a lowered 2 door coupe with aftermarket tint and rims 2 sizes larger than what it came with as something sports car oreinted. Nice work.

I dunno man I hear folks saying all the time "I am gonna build a street sleeper with an awesome bodykit and rims ...." I have always felt like a sleeper should mean something you can overlook even if your a car enthusiast. lil evo is a prime example.

No one thinks that is a 400 whp AWD monster.

this is not sleeper.
