I bet he was talking about the SS/SC cars in that post.

At any rate - keep flaming them. They are selling tuners hand over fist to frustrated Cobalt owners that are tired of being dicked around by a company in financial disarray.

Or they can just go see any good tuner with HPTuners and have a real custom tune!

This is a quote from Ron at Superchips posted yesterday why the HHR tune has better numbers than the Cobalt tune
I need to hop on the forums, obviously that guy is not a tuner for them. He is more than likely a guy that just runs off at the mouth on the forums. I will start posting there and harassing them.

New 91 tune revised, just downloaded it/reflashed and test drove. Consistently hitting 21.5lbs in 2nd gear now. (I was only hitting 20.5 at most on the last update.)

Im getting more and more tempted all the time.....Do any of you have a second ecu that you use for this. If not, and when you have returned back to stock, have you had any problems at the dealer??

Thanks

I think it just takes off the learn down feature, to take full advantage of bolt ons you have to re tune every time you put something new on
