1. It is only 90 dollars thats sketchy
2. It doesnt specify if it is a Cobalt SS it only says 2009 Cobalt
3. Never heard of that company


Get either Trifecta or HP Tuners, if you are concerned about the warranty get GM Stage 1.

The only chip I would recommend is either Tostidos or Durritos, even Ruffles. Dude spend the extra $150 and make 8x more power SAFELY with a tuner/tunning company.

You just send them your pcm and they load a tune in it or you can get a pcm from them already tuned. Very easy to install

With this motor being as finiky as it is I dont know if I would go that route unless it was a very mild tune. I think ever SuperChips would be a better option that that. No down time and can switch back whenever you want. They may even update it from time to time
