Be Back Soon.

 

Looks good man. Also, I think you're the 1st purple SS I've seen on this site. Our color is a rare breed. Keep it up, rep the purple!

 

hey dallas, your sig got me. hehe...

 

what color is your car,i have not seen that yet

 

So up next is tint and SSC lowering springs, prolly going to be a few weeks, but its all good in the hood. This new intake is a beast, very very fond of the new sound. It turns heads and i often am asked if i am supercharged. (sucks that im not, for now)

I highly suggest getting this, if i get some time, ill see how movies look on my new cam, and record a lil something.

Also yea if you do a google for purple cobalt ss, i have only seen one other one, also i cant seem to find any other cobalt of any model in purple. The color is quite unique and i really dig it.

 

It gets everyone. I've even fallen for it once.

The color is actually not called purple. The technical color from GM is called "Majestic Amethyst Metallic".

 

ah interesting, thanks!

 

I know where you can get a high-rise spoiler too if you're interested. I know they're hard to find in our color.

 

nice ...yes i never seen a purple ss

 

They only made them in the 2.2 and 2.4 models in 2006. No other year got that color, and they never put it on the S/C.

 

My only concert in rain water with this intake, there is a plastic plate under the bumper and between the filter and the wheel, but just wondering, anybody have any issues with this? just to put my mind at ease ?

 

I have CAI and my car's lowered. I never had problems so far, and I stay out of the right lane when it rains. Since you have the Injen, convert it to the SRI during the wet months.

 

yea thats what i was thinking is once it gets to september, its gets colder and rainy here, so i will swap it, and once it hits nov ill toss some snow wheels on it, this is my daily driver for now, so just kinda mindful ya know?

guess i should buy a shitbox for like 2 or 3 grand in jan lol nothing better than a ford if your looking for a peice of ****. lol


forgive my ignorance, but what is CAI exactly ?

 

in canada they did...i sat in one before i bought my car

 

its an performance intake for your car.do you have some more pics,I really like to see.thanks

 

CAI is what you have. CAI=cold air intake SRI-short ram intake

Must've been a special order, they didn't mass produce them in that color.

 

Looks good man

 

sweet, i can take more pix , i need to get some nice pix of my rizzo on this site. I always want to get some sound clips and a small how-to setup, cause there are a few little quirks with this that i should mention when i have time to sit and get things peiced together.


EDIT: ok cool i know what both of those are, just not familiar with the abbreviation.

is this a dryflow filter or not, still learning so please drop some knowledge on me

 

AEM makes the dryflow, not Injen

 

What is the difference / benifits ?

EDIT: ok i know the difference now, after a little light searching/reading, but as i can see its just a benifit that you dont have to clean it as often ?

 

Basically, when it's time to wash/clean your filter, you're supposed to re-oil it. But too much can get on the MAF (mass air flow) sensor and throw a CEL (check engine light). With the AEM, you don'thave to re-oil it.

 

ah cool, well i guess when its time to clean this bitch, ill just buy a AEM filter, and asave me some trouble. Muchos gracias my friend.

 

No problem, that's why the site is here. If you need anything else, just PM me.

 

BTW guys.. Majestic Amethyst Metallic is an OEM HHR color used on year one vehicles for 2006 model run as well. Decent color too! Didn't know they ever put it on the Cobys.

 

im not feeling the color
