Just Bought Hahn Upgrades...
ok so i just bought hahn IC, DP, 3'' Cat Back, CAI, Charge Piping as well as the PPC Tuner. i will recieve the parts in a week or so. i was kind of bummed that they said they didnt have their BOV ready yet... so i was thinking of going with the HKS SSQ BOV. dopes anyone have any other recomendations? and antoehr thing. I want to lower it but i do not know how far down i want or should go. i dont want to be avoiding parking lots because of speed bumps and here in colorado we have quite a few pothholes. so if anyone could get me any freindly advice this would be great! thanks!

You will love you Hahn stuff. I have almost all of what you have, except i'm running the stock IC. I am also in the same boat as you deciding wether to get sportlines or not

They just have worse spring rates than stock.
Sportlines give a good drop though

adjustments on the fly, coilovers can drop more and have the best handling basically for a serious person who wants to go on corners fast. i think from what your looking for just get springs which give u a nice drop. but once you have the springs on you cant go an lower unless u want to ruin them.

I put H&R springs on my ss/tc, it drops it a little more in the front than the sportlines do. I had sportlines on my last cobalt and I find the H&R's to be smoother, my gf also agrees. I'm in canada so I drive on terrible roads everyday.
and yes a bumpy ride is inevitable

i had both now, the ppc tuner and trifecta, and trifecta is hands down way faster.
I have nothing bad to say about the ppc, had it for a year with 0 issues at all even with the upgrades,
but at a grand it too pricey, and you can't resell it.

People think stiff ride=good handling.
People also think lowering ALWAYS helps handling.

ok first off i have 100k to throw at my car. i know i could buy a new one but i like my cobalt. i just want it to be the best i can make it you know? i dont need no voper corvette or nissan GT-R. i just want to stick with this platform and make it something that stands out you know? i didnt ask for critisism. i asked for advice. but as with the PPC i was thinkiing about just telling them not to send it. but then i wont feel the full potential of my mods either. i can jsut buy a trifecta or getr HPT. but the think im worried about is my UCU not being able to be flashed to what it was. thats why i got the PPC. so logical thing states... get another ECU??? so now with that said. does anyone have some advice on the coil overs over lowetring springs. i dont like the ride height. i want to keep the handling where its at. i dont need inprovement. i jsut want a cosmetic l;ower and maintain driveability without ruining struts shocks or any of that.
