Hey everyone I'm a proud owner of a new Black 2010 SS.I have to be very honest and say what a sleeper this car really is.It sure doesn't feel stock,some people were saying that gm installed their left over tune kits in the last model year,rumor?.One thing I noticed is that without revving it on take off my wheels completely spin and get loose in 2nd gear.I can understand why you are all proud of your cars,great handling and great accelleration.Alot of people put these cars down,I drive many different cars because of my job,I have driven everything from Nsx's to Shelby Gt 500's.These cars are as much fun as 100 thousand dollar rides,maybe not the nostalgia but just as much *****.Glad to have one, Chris.

 

You like it now....go back to the stealer and get stage 1 yull ****

 

stage one...upgrade the turbo, complete exhaust, intake, and retune that bitch!!!

 

With just a TUNE you can add almost 50-60 more hp!!

 

Mine finally came in. GM is shooting some of the accessories in the car. Mine came with the stage 1 that I have to have installed, GMPP exhaust, and SS hood liner. Just stock it's not a bad car. I bought it for my son since he starts driving at the end of the month. I hope he respects it. We went shopping original for a normal Cobalt, Civic, etc. Not with the huge discount on them just couldn't pass it up. MSRP in Canada is $29,500 and it has a $5500.00 rebate and I got an additional $1200.00 off. Hard car to beat for $22g.

 

nice i just bought my 09 SS/TC sedan for like $20k with all the rebates and crap brand new

 

No offence, Accordio, but I don't know if I would have bought this car for my 16 yr old son. An over-abundance of testosterone and a torquey FWD car are a bad mix.

 

*****!

Your son will love it! Just team him some respect

 

He'll be fine. He races shifter kart and has been into motorcross and atv since around 5 years old. It's all how you respect it. I'll be keeping an eye out and he knows it.

 

Dude... That is the best sig EVER.

 

OK. Best of luck.

 

Congrats Chris! Just got my Black SS two weeks ago - Love It! I've noticed lots of people here Upgrade the performance.. I'm surprised.. but.. I guess that's what I get for living a sheltered life. I would imagine the upgrades just make a great car that much better..

One thing I know for sure though... is that the car is impressive right out the door... which is why the stock car you now own - already feels like there is no way it can be stock

I've posted a bunch of quotes on my limited time here.. and this one sums it up best for me!

x2 lol

 

GMPP has an exhaust for our car?? i was under the impression that the two exhausts they had out did not fit the LNF

 

GMPP Exhaust for the LNF?

 

accordio said
"Mine came with the stage 1 that I have to have installed, GMPP exhaust, and SS hood liner."


so is this true? does any one have clips of what it sounds like or dyno data?

 

I was under the impression also. So they went and checked and they said it'll fit. It'll be going on in a couple days so I'll let everyone know.

Constructed of T-304 stainless steel with free flowing mandrel bent tubing. Features semi-polished muffler with two distinctive sounds that meet all federal decibel requirements. Touring(more aggressive than stock) and Performance (much more aggressive than stock) Finish it off with adjustable and interchangeable, fully polished stainless steel tips with chevy bowtie logo (sold separately). This is the only performance exhaust system engineered by GM for your GM vehicle. , For use with 2.0L (LSJ), 2.0L (LNF), 2.2L (L61) and 2.4L (LE5) engines

 

i hope you are correct! i was looking at that system and was bummed that i couldn't get it for my car

 

Make sure you team up with Geoff (gdubs) on here and check out your local cobalt club; you guys have a real nice group up there! If you're interested in getting it tuned or have any questions feel free to get ahold of me either through pm or phone. Congrats and have fun with your new toy

 

First off welcome i love my 10 ss/tc black 260 hp 260 tf @2000 rpm its a lot of car.
as for mods or upgrades there is little out there from GM there is a upgrade for the turbo some $580.00 or something like that but you only get 30 hp out of it they done even have a after market intake yet
so i had to make my own not the best but you get the sound (look at my pic's)
Anyways welcome and enjoy it before he can best dad ever you got my vote

 

Get your flame suit on.

 

I have done many of mods in my life and this is just intake all the oem parts are there just removed the air box extended the tube and slap a filter on it had to cut a hole for the mass air flow sensor thats all.
untill thay make some thing worth paying for i will work on the LED lights.

 

You know with relocating the MAF you just screwed up your fuel trims. You would need tuned for moving it. There are many companies that make intakes for these cars. All requiring tuning.

 

WTF Mate???? ever heard of HAHN or OTTP or ZZP or DEJON or AEM??

 

look at the intake it is not the same from 09 it comes up from the back not the front no one makes one yet.

and no i didnt know moving the MAFS makes a difference its almost in the same place maybe off by a half inch
