    What exactly is a “factory turbo upgrade”, weren’t all 2008 and up SS models 2.0l Turbo? Stage 2?

    • @koolaidwaterfountainsforth4236
      @koolaidwaterfountainsforth4236 5 років тому +1

      He really used the wrong terminology. Its not a upgraded turbo. Still the factory ko4 all the ss's come with. What it really is the the OEM stage 1 kit GM offers. Replaces the stock 2ish bar map sensors for 3 bar sensor, pcm flash and walaa. Turns up the boost, spools up quicker. Also gain a 1mpg average if you can maintain your leadfoot.
      Good for 290hp and 315 foot pounds at the crank. Pretty much moves that previous 260 crank hp to the wheels instead.
      There's no other stage kits that im aware of. Thats just what they call it.

I would rather have someone imitate Saabkyle then watch someone who is trying to be "different". Just thought I would give my opinion because I see a lot of people commenting on car reviews and majority of them are saying "stop trying to be Saabkyle". If aint broke don't fix it.
