actually you know what the funny think is when my cobalt was 300whp it felt like my corvette when I was just heads and cam making 475whp the speedometers didnt move the same speed but with the torque steer and boost kicking in so rapidly it fett just as crazy. Unfortunetly i'm not going to be going to the track unless an aftermarket tranny comes out for the car or when I buy a 3rd car to daily drive next summer. When I do eventually retire the cobalt to only race use though I will be expirementing alot with custom cams, sheetmetal manifolds with ls1 throttle body, bigger turbos and auxillery fuel rails if the aftermarket doesn't provide those parts by then. and by the way I have the quote in your signature engraved on my kimber lol
And truer words have never been engraved on a gun. They are the words I live by, and everyone should live by. Take advantage of your 2nd Ammendment Rights.

** update ** 250 miles
so far still no problems. a couple notes the car still has plenty of power out of boost. its not like some other big turbo cars that i've driven where it makes no power until boost and it hits like a light switch. I was able to hit 100 mph shifting at 3500 rpm and maintaining 6 inches of vacumn. I'm getting check engine lights non stop but I still haven't tuned it so thats expected. also my gas mileage has gone up 2 mpg. spec stage 3+ now feels no more stiffer than stock

I to had a few engine lights. One was for the bypass solenoid which is no longer there. And two for the rear o2 which was also expected. Nothing of any harm and I have about 600 miles on it now.
