I got it and I love it. I feels like a cobalt with a turbo in it finally. I raised the rev limit on mine and it pulls all the way up. Just set aside some time to get it dialed in and you've love the look you get when you pull buses on Challengers and Camaro SS

Didn't dyno yet but I will after charge piping and intercooler.

X a billion... Mine is active with the cruise off... even after like 10 logs and tunes I still maintain stock MPG on the freeway with the cruise control on and engaged. Plus its funny to watch the traction control freak out when it registers wheel spin at 40mph I laugh everytime haha

I remember when I got my trifecta tune the 1rst time, night & day difference & being able to spin the front wheels @ 45mph speed limit even w/lsd gave me a stiffy
Enjoy!

I am on 24 PSI and have no trouble... well actually that is false, I have traction troubles all the way through second gear. I have shown the fat cobalt ass to many many non believers in a 40 highway roll. It's gotta be heartbreaking when they see a little FWD cobalt pulling away spinning both tires from 40-55 or 60 and knowing that their V-8 ain't gonna catch up.

All bolt ons from Treadstone - $1600 +/-
Trifecta base tunable file - $200 +/-
HP tuning software - $400 +/-
Knowing you are making a grown man cry in his $40,000-$90,000 car ------ ******* PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh boy, I love 4 bangers with that plate

I put all the cars with variants of that plate to shame in Metro-Detroit already. They were a couple SRT-4's (one had a 50 trim), a 240, and an Eclipse.

I ran a Rousch Stage 3 supercharged mustang last month on a 40 highway roll. Neither one of us really won. It was dead even the whole way to 140 when I let out and he let out right after that. It would take a pretty decent V-8 to do work against a SS/TC with all the fixin's and a good tune.

By the way Term2 thanks for the tunes haha... epic dude straight epic.

To be fair, you are just a little more than a lightly modded V-8

Your welcome. Runs a lot better now that you have a relocted MAF to go with that BOV.
