With a good tune, a new/bigger intercooler might not hurt you.

why a second ecu, if your trying to fool gm on knowing if your car was tuned, they can still tell by scaning the bcm.

i would say better Front mount, or 3" down pipe, but i wouldnt go with hahn. to over priced and price isnt worth their quality

plus if you unplug the ECU you gotta tow the car to the dealership so they can unlock it, same thing happened to justin when he took his ECU out.
i thought your selling your charge pipe?

That's not the case with both Cobalts I have owned.

Also, unless you are making a ton of power, then the hahn exhaust isn't needed.

Just a good downpipe and maybe muffler delete is all you need.

If you're already buying a new dp, you might as well get the Hahn exhaust. Doesn't make much sense to have a aftermarket dp running into the restrictive stock catback. And besides, the Hahn catback is win!

Stock catback is not very restrictive till about 325-350 HP range.

where exactly can you buy a new ECU for a TC?
and how much are they? i have thought about a new ECU to keep a tune on and swap the factory one in if there is any problems.
