Add to my Build List!

I am looking for ideas for my build list. Here is a list of EVERYTHING I have done to my car thus far. I purchased her almost 3 months ago.

2007 Black Cobalt SS 2.4L

Current Modifications/Alterations (in order of install/completion):
-Removed Engine Plastic
-GM logo Debadge
-Black metal License plate cover
-ARK Short Antenna
-GMPP Air Intake
-Dealership tag debadge
-Red 'SS' Vinyl Overlay
-Red 'Cobalt SS' Door Sill Vinyls
-Red Front Chevy Bowtie
-Debadged Rear Chevy Bowtie
-B&M Shiftplus
-3rd Brake Light Cover
-MRZ Performance Brushed Strut Bar
-MRZ Performance Red Fuse Box Cover

Future Mods:
-Red Brake Caliper stickers
-GMPP Performance Catback Exhaust
-Konig 17" Rims (Unknown, Zero, or Further)
-Titnted Taillights
-Black Halo Headlights
-Window Tint
-ZZP Header
-ZZP Downpipe
-HP Tuners
-Eibach Sport Kit Lowering Springs
-Rear Sway Bar

I need more ideas, anything short of Forced Induction will be considered. I want practical things as well, for instance I don't need Meth Injection.
Any ideas or suggestions/changes??

Progress rear sway bar.

Also, a painted/powdercoated valvecover would be sweet.

Hows the rear sway bar? Can you feel the improvement?
Thanks for your imput.

Also would bigger injectors help any?

The rear sway bar is awesome! I felt the difference immediately, much more even than the strut bar.


As far as injectors, if your injector duty cycle is over 80% once you have all the bolt ons and tune, it would be advisable to switch to the stock LSJ injectors. You can usually pick them up for about $50 shipped on here.

Also Im not ready for a supercharger yet (hence why i didnt ask for it as a suggestion). I have plans for FI once im out of college and can afford 5 grand on a badass setup.

Thanks for the imput.

If you ever want to go supercharged, there are plenty of guys on here with the parts that you would need, including the intake manifold.

You should really consider the Turbo Tech Racing Rear Sway bar. It is 1.0” diameter or 25.4MM. There have been many on this site that stated they had the Progress brand, and switched to the Turbo Tech Racing Rear Sway bar and stated they LOVE the quality and performance of the TTR sway bar more. It offers even more support as it is about 66% stronger.

Here is a direct link:
