misunderstanding

Pay attention and park 25ft from a building or garage door. Anywho most of the people whining about no tuning have no need for it anyway. I had a jbody and hp-tuners just released for them a few years ago and the cavs people mod have been out since 95 so 7-10 years we looking at 2-3 years for tuning so chill out people!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think you guys are reading me wrong. I'm not threatening to toss out the Cobalt for some Honda with more parts. I'm just trying to let the vendors know that we're all ready to spend some money so they shouldn't hold back.

I would love to see more parts. That's all I'm saying.

And you have had better luck (or skill) with your projectors. That's why I'm trying to get someone else to do mine. I'm just tired of trying. I'm not the only one either.

I am aware that tuning is available, but I don't have $3700 to buy it with a turbo. Besides, I don't want a turbo at all until I have my engine rebuilt. That requires a lot more research and planning. As of right now, all I want from that kit is the tuning. As far as I know, there is no custom tuning other than stand alone units and I don't really trust those.

I would love to be wrong on this one, so please correct me if I'm wrong.

I understand you don't want a Honda, I was using that as a example of a great aftermarket but you have to come to the realization that vendors on here for the most part don't manufacture anything...they sell parts. If a company decides to step up somehow, that's great but you don't have vendors here like Greddy, Apexi, AEM or anything like that here for some super cool parts because ultimately, the cobalt market is kind of miniscule. It comes down to money and what platform will dish out money for parts.

I wasn't trying to be rude or anything initially.

If you want a nice set of custom projectors, you can reach my friend Josh @ www.izntrbl.com ...he'll make whatever you want.
