Cobalt LT performance??

I've got a Cobalt LT and looking to increase power but at the same time keeping it as a daily driver. Any suggestions on simple bolt ons or even upgrading to Cobalt SS parts??

Injen intake, magnaflow exhaust, vibrant header/downpipe/high flow cat.... That would be a good start. It would not change daily driving a bit

Check out www.TurboTechRacing.com for more ideas.

Hey guys, I am new on here, I just bought a 2009 cobalt lt and already regreting it and not getting the SS, I am interested in supercharging the car, any idea on if there is a GM supercharger kit available for the car, and if so would it void my waranty as I paid to have the extended so I don't want to mess that up. Thanks guys
