Really? Well, if they are happy, I'm happy. I have a 10 year old and a 7 year old, I was always able to fit them both in the car with no problem, and they were always comfortable. And the trunk is big enough that I was always able to fit all their stuff

I just think the Evo/STi is a much better car. Yeah the cobalt SS is a cheap thrill car and fun but I just want something better than a cobalt, know what I mean?

Yes. Actually if I could afford it, I would get an STI. I would trade one SS and keep the other one.

That would be fun to have both, but I couldn't afford that either.

I've bought my car Aug. 2009, I've looked at the Hahn website a week after and it said "soon to come" under the turbo kits section. I don't know what it means "soon to come" for them. I even called them when I ordered my bolts on in March 2010 and they said "almost ready",

yea i join few days ago still learning this car and potential i think borg warner would b a btter turbo if aint hav to wait 4 months, also came across precision turbo they look pretty gud as well. why is it easier to find turbos for the SC version converted then the TC? not necessarily easier but you see kits for them more often.

Well the LNF hasn't been out all that long. If you want to make your LNF fast check out ZZP's stuff, they had an LNF run a 10.99

for a 305whp goal you are able to play it cheap. CAI, DP, CP and tune. $ 1000

If he's looking for 305whp, I don't see the need for reinforcing the motor
