For those of you who are wondering what a Cobalt SS/SC S2 with a K&N intake sounds like here you go. Those are the only mods... I started from a coast... at about 5-7 mph. Didn't shift quick either, it was just to show the sound in 2nd gear... Forgive me for the dirty car... I was bored and it was a nice day out...

Let the bashing begin... cause I know someone will have something negative to say...

 

Why make 2 threads though????

 

YOU SUCK!

jk dude, i love the sound

how long did it take you to install it?

i just noticed that too...why did you make 2 threads?

 

Sorry didn't mean to...

It only took me an hour to install the intake...

dealer installed the Stage 2 took about 2.5 hours...

 

Uh oh.... Time to bann!
Jk, Sounds good

 

There deleted the extra one...

 

The superchargers on those things are loud as hell. Nice.

 

sounds amazing i love that whine

 

i like the bird chirps haha
sounds good as well

 

Yea, I used to have a turbo on my old car, it sounded good cause is back spooled when I let off the throttle, but the whine is priceless....

 

Is that clutch slip I hear? lol..

Sounds bad ass.

 

I don't think it is, if you listen you can hear the tires squeal both times when I shift into second...

 

If you listen closer it /sunds like it catches, slips, and then catches again. *shrugs*

 

****.... well I got 17,000k on it, do I wait till it get a little worse or to I take it in now?

 

I'd take it in ASAP. Maybe they'll warrant you but I highly doubt it. You really can't shift into 2nd while the tires are spinning like that though. If you have traction at the top of 1st and then bang 2nd, the clutch will grab everytime. Try it if you don't believe me. Also if you search theres a video on here about that as well.

 

Why wouldnt they warrant me? My dealer loves me....All I have is S2 and CAI.

 

They'll claim it's a wear and tear item, or they'll say you were racing it and / or don't know how to drive. It's been tried so many times on this forum, most people just end up upgrading theirs anyway. If you get lucky you'll get the dealer to cover labor.

 

I'll deal with it, right now its not bad at all, and like you said I will let the tires stop spinning in 1st before I shift. Once my warranty is up I'll go ahead and upgrade clutch, tune pulley H.E. exhaust and all the other goodies. But not till my waranty in up... I f'in love this car no matter what....

 

i heard epic clutch slip as well

 

If you have traction in 1st when you go to shift 2nd it'll grab just fine. I can spin the 1-2 shift everytime (and yes its the tires spinning and not the clutch, I can feel/hear them).

 

Sounds great. I love my s/c

 

good sound bad shift

 

First off, I WASN'T trying to shift quick, or even hard, I was simply doing a flyby in second gear to show the sound of the charger....

You should show me how to shift with that big bad LS...

 

dude i have a cobalt sport....lol it's a debadged non sc cobalt ss basically. all im saying is it wasn't a normal sounding shift

 

Oh my bad sport, ls same diff....
