Today I called some turbo expert Yiyito Turbo here in PR

I was asking for a Turbo for my car

He says he advices me to use a T25 or T28 on my 2.2L Auto Tranny Nubira

And i Say DOesnt THat Spool too fast ? would it make good power ? it is a 2.2 engine

He answered:

Thats good, I have a 2.0L 8v SOHC Turbo Cavalier, same block as yours but different head

using a T28 turbo @ 22psi with over 400hp

he didnt mention the other mods it may have

i believe him i had seing other projects of his in the track running really fast

so it is between the T28 or the T3/T4 hybrid

That engine sounds similar to the C20GET we have here on the mainland... and the T28 would be a good choice... a GT28RS would be even better (but expensive)

a bit off topic but i got to ask: lag is not that big issue on an Auto tranny car... right?

I dont know if I'd want turbo lag in an a/t. I guess it depends what you're doing with the car though.

I know tons of people won't even go turbo cuz they still beleive they lag too much.

well in some oem turbocharged cars the manual tranny has a bigger turbo than the auto tranny

i think in HMT they had a turbo list and some specyfied auto or manual tranny

the gears in a automatic transmission are longer maybe thats why they use a smaller turbo

for fast spooling and moving the gears faster

yeah i heard about that also, they can come with bigger and longer gears, and stuff so you or someone can put a turbo on it.

if you get a stall converter that is slightly higher then the rpms that the car spools at you wont have any lag.

LOL wont go turbo because it'll lag too much

What's the alternative? Stay NA and have an ENITRE rev range full of lag?

Spose you could supercharge but turbo is so much easier and less limitations/drag of a supercharger.

Turbo for teh win!

it is tempteng indeed but yoiu know i won't be keeping the woo for long so...

also if i got a brand new car (another lanos or an aveo) then i have to wait till the warranty expires before i can touch the engine... still the idea is always their and won't fade away.
