I really don't know what to do. If I put the 2.8inch on and 60lbers I will have a decently fast reliable daily driver. If I spend 3k I can have a pretty powerful cobalt that will run decent times. If I spend 5k I can have a ***** to the wall 400+whp cobalt that will do anything i want it to lol.

I just don't know if its worth the money at this point. If i wanted to..i could get a camaro and put next to nothing in it to run the same times at the 1/4mile track.

Is it really worth it? There is always going to be someone out there faster then you.

camaro > cobalt. dollar for dollar, mod for mod, its just a better deal

I'm waiting to see some GXP Solstices hit the market, want to see the prices, one of those modded out would be fun to drive. Imagine a hahn solstice with about 400 hp. damn that would be fun

gxp solstices have been out for a while, where to you think the ss/tc is getting its engine from? The LNF was used in the solstice gxp '07-up when the gxp was released

really, i should've been more specific. Waiting for more used to hit the market. Don't know if I can swing a new one yet. PGA crap is expensive and till I'm done with it my pay sucks.

sweet man, I'm pretty sure you won't be in the least disappointed. And don't forget to recoup some of the cost of the turbo swap you can sell off all your old parts, its a pretty big list, and the money adds up. It will knock that price of the turbo down quite a bit.
