ok the fact they had smoothing at 5 and did a run w/ shifts is just retarded.
NTM does anybody even know what ECU the 'balt will have? if it's the same then the "bsr tuner" may be compatible (barring dif OSs), if it's dif then this whole thread is (likely) moot.

Either way, with the Cobey being turbo, I believe that there will be some pretty decent potential involved, ESPECIALLY if GM made adjustments to the drivetrain to correct some issues that were had such as the tapered axles.
I think this is good news, the turbo Cobalt part of it that is. lol

True, but at least the LNF cobalt guys won't have to be the guinea pigs like the LSJ guys are. They can look and see what works and doesn't work from the RL and GXP owners.

I believe that the spring rates were changed probably to reduce wheel hop..axles may be the same

Show me an LSJ running almost 260whp from a tune alone. The guys running those numbers with the LSJ's are running delicate tunes w/ full bolt-ons and meth injection. Not to mention the Cobalt with the LNF will see higher numbers due to less drivetrain loss.

yeah ive NEVER seen the axel's crack. i HAVE granaded a driver side axel at the inner CV (the one that slide's into the hub) i hope they redisgned everything. espically the trans housing.. cause some poeple were cracking tranny housing's BEFORE snapping an axel. and ending up with a voided warrenty for racing.

hell i put down over 260 with a 2.8, stock tune, and an intake.
how is the drivetrain loss in the lnf cars less than the lsj?
