i got the same CAI but mine is going to be black. Are you going to install yourself or have it done? I read somewhere that some of the cobalts had to take their wheels off or the bumper to get the CAI in. Is this the same with the 09 ss/tc models? cant wait to get mine.

I believe the issue for installation is the most forward intake tube, its kinda below and just aft of the headlight. It has a rubber like fitting holding it in place, was quite the task for me to remove. It has one of those plastic fittings (as im not aware of the name im going to attempt to describe it) that has a head on it to put a screw driver on each side, lift up the middle and than the fitting can be removed. At the time when i removed it, i was able to get shears in there and cut it.

In regards to the "black" colour, its either the charge piping or CAI hasn't been released in blk yet...

To those who are using the worm dive clamps that come with the charge pipes,I am using them and am Trifecta tuned to 25 psi with no problems.Just tighten them real good and after a few miles on them snug them up again.

just take the headlight out, after that its straight forward, altho some of the pins are difficult to get out. There are good how to's on it, i put my hahn on the other day...

I had problems with my injen CAI... I had it on and off about 4 different times doing testing. The car jerks quite a bit while doing down the road at a constant speed, cause of the MAF tables are off.

I was told by Injen that you need (4) 2.5" clamps and (2) 2" clamps. I went ahead and got (2) 2.25" clamps too, just in case...
I got them the other day and they are VERY BEEFY! These things look like they are made to clamp fire hoses, not turbo pipes! I'm very happy with the quality and expected results...
