yes and no, It will work probably work in general but you will probably need a new exhaust manifold customized to fit your specific cobalt, there might be some other little parts that won't match up

thats an itty bitty turbo. I would buy from a well known dealer, or site. Just y opinion.

You get what you pay for...I would NOT trust one of those ebay setups unless you replace the turbo with something better and I can't imagine the manifold will fit a Cobalt. It may, but I don't know for sure.

I would recommend getting a list of what comes with the kit from Garrett or Hahn or one of those well known companies, then finding all the parts online separately. You'll spend more than twice the price of this, but you'll have something you don't have to worry about.

Man just from looking at the parts. THat is a very cheaply made product. With the money they are asking you are better off to buy a garrett. If you are going to upgrade to a turbo you might as well spend the money to do it right instead of spending money to constantly fix mistakes and problems that arise from that kit. Plus you have to look at Tunning it and everything.

You could even pick up a used kit from someone selling theirs on CSS or someplace else. One of the nice things about the Garrett kit is that it's super easy to install and the instructions are great...I never thought I'd be able to do something like that, but after reading them, I'm positive I would have no problems.

I'm guessing an ebay kit won't have that kind of detail...then, unless you know what you're doing or have a shop do it, you'll wind up wasting more time trying to make sure you get it installed correctly.
