K&N intakes arriving 10-7 / 10-10 at Modern Performance !!

Alright guys, as promised to everyone in our previous posts, the Cobalt SS intake is arriving shortly !! We had made posts that they would be available late September, and we were off by only 1-2 weeks. Now, we have confirmation from K&N that our shipment is on the way, and we have a freight pro bill number that we have used to track the inbound shipment.

Id say as early as Friday, and latest Monday, we will have received the intakes, and begin shipping them. We will also be posting pictures, dyno results and a video of it on our car as soon as we receive them.

If you havent already reserved a K&N intake system for your Cobalt SS, then now is the time to do it !! Give us a call to get the intro price on this unit, and get one reserved for yourself !! We will NOT bill your credit card until it ships!

Quick notes about the intake:
Available only in silver
One piece system, installs with factory MAF perfectly
No check engine lights

:cool:

We have received the intakes from K&N !

Update :
We have test fitted the intake, and its components, and everything looks good however there was a packing mistake with the filters at K&N. They have included the wrong size filter in our kits and so they will not fit. We have talked with K&N and they will have the replacement filters to us by tomorrow/wednesday and we will then be repacking them with the newer filters.

Once we repack them with the new filters they will be ready to install, and good to go. We will then be shipping them out to all of the Cobalt boys and girls across the country.

Thank you for your patience. We are sad this has happened, but we are glad that we test fitted the intake for quality assurance, and that K&N is taking good care of us and our customers (you!).

(Edit) heres a picture of a few tubes that we test checked, and the filter :

FINAL UPDATE: We have received the filters, and will begin packing the intakes with the new filters.

When most other vendors would just ship out the intakes without test fitting them, Modern Performance is proud to be the first one to find out about this issue, contact K&N, and get it all corrected before shipping these intakes out to our customers. Thank you all for your patience !! We will begin shipping these off today !

We have had a cel come on once, but it was for a "pcm out of memory" code. The dealership reflashed our pcm with new coding and its working fine now though.

We will have pictures of the intake installed on our car up by tonight, latest tomorrow.

2006Arrival, that is correct, its a partial picture of the intake. We would have released pictures sooner, but we have had a severe problem with other performance shops that like to steal our images and use them on their website. This is because 1) we beat them to market by weeks 2) they dont have the product to take photos of 3) they dont have a camera 4) their camera skills are poor (or all of the above) and so we have to watermark all of our images before we release them to the public.

We will have more pictures up by later tonight/tomorrow of the intake installed on our car, and ill be sure to post them here !

Will that CEL come on for everyone? I ask because you have to disconnect the battery to install the intake. I accidentally ran my battery dead one time and a cel came on for some kinda pcm memory malfunction.

Do you have any idea how long shipping will take from the day you were billed?

That is a standard CEL for when you battery has been disabled. It will go ff after three on/offs or about 30 min. whichever. No worry!
