My Build.

I bought a 2009 chevy cobalt ls, slow as **** and im all about the speed so i honestly dont know how i ended up with the ls.

Right now everything is stock, but heres what is going into it i havent decided on brands yet:

1. Garret Turbo charger
2. Aftermarket headers
3. New Exhaust
4. Hub conversion kit
5. leather interior
6. SS body kit
7. Cold Air intake
8. Wires and Plugs
9. Wheels and Tires
9. Sport Clutch
Much Much More


Heres some stock pics:




ill post pics after i start getting things installed.

i got keyed :/

Agree, dont waste your time with the ls just spend the money on a ss/tc or even a ss/sc, both have a much better platform then the ls ever will

Warrantys are honestly worthless!
Warranty covers your transmission and your engine blowing up if you didnt cause it.
chances of your engine blowing up running stock? slim
******* your tranny up? for some of us EASY for me, not so much

I got this car for half the price of what an SS cost.
After all the money i put into this it will not only dust the SS but it will still not cost me as much as the SS.
