This...plus I prefer to keep my warranty in tact at least until I pay the bitch off. 
I work like 2 miles from these guys and live less than 10 away.
This as well...a quick search shows that Dodge made about 25,000 Neon SRT-4 cars from '03-'05, whereas the SS/TC production will be lucky to hit 6,000 (based on ~3600 made in '08 and '09)
Still, I hear good things about them and it would be nice to see more options out there for when I eventually start swapping stuff out.

I like the idea of more as much as anybody...but we do have a relatively wide variety of bolt on parts already available for how few LNF balts were produced...I doubt we'll see too many more companies jumping on producing turbo kits and bolt ons and such for these things than the ones that already exist. Hopes and dreams though I suppose

I have to ask this question.How many aftermarket turbo kits are there?ZZP,Hahn,PWERKS,I might have missed a few,but, Who really thinks they can sell enough kits to make money on them.The SST/C is done the Cobalt is done, why would anyone want to jump into a dying aftermarket a couple years into the game?Especially withe the 3 above vendors already playing? Somebody please sell this to me from a business standpoint.
A HUGE thank you to cmiller8006!!

In response to the business side of things.. There are also more than a few of us who are waiting for warranties to expire before the modding starts.. give it some time.. the demand for aftermarket parts will grow for these cars.

AGP is a proven company that sells good parts. However, I am not comfortable with any company that has no knowledge/experience in a plateform that they are making parts for.
The Cobalt will be no more after this year and with only 6000+ LNF SS ever made, I for one would be a little hesitant in getting involved unless we can get a huge commitment from the LNF community. It's good for us comsumers to get to choose and pick from a large group of vendors for aftermarket parts. But the thing I am afraid of is when the market get so dilluted and the established vendors are not meeting there sale/profit targets which would result in them moving on to other platforms. Then we would be left with no new products/parts and no support for the SS LNF community.
My $ will always goes to the established vendors that has done their homework/R&D and a proven track records. Sorry if I am off topic a little..
On the side note. My biggest mistake was not buying a turbo kit from AGP for my 04' SRT-4 but instead buying it from on of their compeditors which costing me so more $$ and headaches.

The SRT's are done. They are still around and are an awsome platform to tune off of. That is were the cobalt will be. The cobalts are still selling new. The DI race for performance is just starting! This is a totally awsome break threw for all of us. The tuning is coming around, but like cmiller said.. this company is involved in many aftermarket and tuner products SO well known for the quality and performance! To just stand by and allow this to crumble.. The Cobalt community has done it before with Enkie with the PF01's available in the 5x110 bolt pattern. I would so jump on this, but do to the current situation on my wife probably loosing her job .. i dont think i would be a good contestant. A HUGE thank you to cmiller8006!!
