it would be good to update the tune after exhaust. but u wont lose any power by having stock exhaust. u will get more out of it if u had exhaust but no u wont lose power.
dont buy a cat-back u wont gain any power, just buy header and downpipe

 

Hey drew are you running a 2.9 pulley on your TVS with 60s? Or 79lb injectors? And did you retune when you pullied down or did you just switch the pulley?

 

yes because you are so nice yourself..

Look at 75% of my posts.. i answer questions no on else will.. im sitting here helping this guy who is having trouble..

Your the reason why people dont wanna answer questions..

When you ever so nice yourself, and you post something that comes off very sarcastic, im going to treat it as such..

 

so you say that intake you told me to buy is better then the injen you have in your car? also if you said to buy the ottp stage 1 whyd you get the gm stage 2 for the warranty or what? im not trying to be an ass im just trying to get as much info as i can cuz like i said im new to all of this!

 

yes the intake is better than mine that intake is a 3in mine isnt. and i had stg2 becuz of warranty now i have my own setup

 

so going with catback is pointless then? i thought you do get a gain! well thanks that saves me like 200 or so lol

 

all i did was muffler and resonator to make it louder. if anything change the axle back piping to 2.5" the rest of the cat-back is 2.5 stock.

 

ok im starting to get this more! so all that other stuff is just like bolt ons like they basically tune themselves kinda but when i get the exhaust then tune it all? ok then well if i have any other questions later would you mind answering them?

 

when u get the stg1 u tell them ur mods. but retune after header/dp
and no just ask

 

not at all!!

 

should i buy the intake and heat exchanger before the stage kit then?

 

buy it all at once they will give u a discount.
u dont need to tune for a h/e it adds no power it just helps ur car from gettin heat soak

 

My posts were intended to help this guy as well. Just because I made one mistake on a fact everyone has to attack.

And what are you talking about? Nothing written on a computer comes off as sarcastic. There is no tone of voice. When I asked you about the 2.6 on a stage 2 I was actually asking in an attempt to end this childish argument and learn more. Modding my car is just a hobby for me, so I just pick up things when I can. I don;t have time to study and read up on every last detail of how the car works. So whatever, lets stop crowding this guys thread.

 

and for the intake should i get a meth tap?

what are sway bars for or what do they do?

 

No you ******* sped, because the injectors won't be able to supply the fuel.

Stage one and two flashes are the same.

Period.

Buy all three at once if you can.

You're going to anyways

So you're gonna act like you know, then turn around and try to ask a question that really showed you have no idea.

Awesome.

 

I already picked up on that you ******* **** head. Your about an hour late on this.

This is for you:

Dude I seriously don't care. I thought I knew and made a mistake. Your just a dick. So thats that.

Awesome.

 

Awe, nubby is butt hurt.

Why don't you learn something instead of being a ******* waste of bandwidth trying to argue then fight back with your maelstrom of stupid that was spewed out all over this thread.

Fill one of these out and go to the back of the line:



Apparently you can't read a whole post either:



Also does common sense just elude you or something?

What comes in a stage kit?

Larger injectors!

Holy ******** I wonder why?

 

You better read this then.

Its your only hope.

Your seriously such a loser. This will be my last post on this thread. I'm sure you'll continue to be an embarrassment.

So you mean to tell me, that in your sig, you talk about a TVS, and haven't the slightest of clues on how your LSJ's fueling system works?

ROFL!

That's ******* pathetic.

Oh and how exactly do you know if I have mantits again?

 

Dude your seriously relentless. I'm posting one last time just to say your out of control. Obviously I must have struck a nerve or something because your really taking this too seriously. You need therapy or you just need to do something besides sit at the computer.

Like I said before this is just a hobby for me. So obviously I don't do all of my own work, though I do most. Tuning wise I'm not an expert.

I do have a TVS and I do know about the fueling system. I was just confused about the ecu's interaction/compensation when pulleys are interchanged without any tuning changes.

I will admit that I got it wrong but I understand it completely now. So seriously get a life and move on.

 

You're

Oh and I am getting paid to be here right now, how about you?

I have a life, plenty of one, therapists will find out that I am crazy and lock me away,

Dude, if you have a TVS and have to ask what you asked earlier, a simple 'my bad', but no, you come off as this cocky *******.

Kinda hard to deal with someone who's cockier than you now isn't it? Stop being a dick, and you'll find out what you need to know.

 

Um I'm at work too if thats what you mean. Haha so I guess we are being paid to argue.

Anyways... whatever. Here you go... "my bad"

 

Please I beg you guys to stop. This guy came here for answers and help. Cant we just answer his questions and if you disagree with an answer be nice and explain why you disagree with facts or at least info that you have tested yourself.

Ottp stage 1 is a great kit I would recommend the Heat exchanger from Ottp or ZZP (zzp has one that fills the front nicely.) The stage 1 kit come with everything you need except the tools to remove pulleys and the intake manifold and other peices. There is alot of info in the posts and on the venders websight that can help, do your reasearch before buying and installing so you dont go in over your head.

 

hey man i agree with you .... i actually explained to the one kid who is fighting with everyone that the GM Stage Tunes are the same for both Stage 1 & 2. He retaliated with insults and nothing but useless comments. i'm on this site to help others, along with learning new things about the cobalt. i don't want this thread to turn into a battle thread like 75% of them do.

to the op .... the GM Stage kits are great if you want to retain your warrenty. if you don't care about your warrenty go with either the ottp stage 1 kit or zzp stage 3 kit. if you really want to make some power get the tvs, 60's and a tune.
