Would it be possible to use a Solstice GXP ECU on my cobalt SS? Would I have to get it flashed by a tech for it to work as if it were a blank since it is for a different model?

If the part number is the same, have the module re-flashed just to make sure it has the same software that you need.

Didn't the 07 and 08-10 gxp ecm's differ in some ways? I would imagine the 08-10 ecm's would be compatible though but not the older one.

they all are interchangeable;
IIRC the difference (with respect to the Cobalts) was the operating system via the BCM.

for a long time these were VERY tough to find
