42 Lb injectors

Xtc downpipe
full dual slp catback exhaust
tranny mounts
custom tune

jbody performance cams or call comp cams tell them what u have and ur mods and they'll set u up with a cam. Jbody performance header, or any other bolt in header, and a spair pair of wheels with drag radials.

Buy some pistons before # 4 blows up?
2.7 and no cooling = not a fun time.
I know u said cooling mods for xmas but damn thats not very smart to run ur car as is.
I would get a header and some sportlines after the cooling mods, along with some 60lbers.

i would get a header (not the gmpp manifold). at that point, i'd start to look into head work, valves, springs, retainters, and ultimately a port/ polish job. that would be good for about 40whp, but most importantly it would be prep for a turbo, or s/c upgrade.
YOU DO NOT NEED PISTONS. faulty tunes are what blow up cobalts.. the pistons have been proven to 375+ horsepower on a dynojet.
Cams have been an issue, only 1 or 2 people actually have them in their car. most who tried.. ended up taking them back out. Ask Matt at TTP what he would do about cams. (hes installed at least 1 set, and tuned for 2 or more)
RebelAutoWorxs just posted a couple days ago that they have an upgraded throttle body for sale. this would probably also help airflow.
A good cheap mod is lowering springs. it makes the car look more aggressive and handles way better. it was my favorite mod when i had a cobalt.. i had the ssc springs ($130) from www.zzperformance.com
when you get all that, its turbo, twinscrew, or procharger time
