It shifted it a little further up, but i feel like i got more power throughout the entire RPM range. I love this header!

 

Looks clean Tyler! When are you gonna bring that thing up so I can see it? Both our cars have changed drastically since we last met up. Race? jk!

 

That is actually a Cobalt Adiction shorty!

 

lmao x2

 

If so, why so cheap compared to CA website?

 

Check on ebay... you can get them their all day long for 175-200.00 I had one from them that I bought on Ebay for my LSJ that was 200.00!

 

looks good but you should have wiped the header down with some achoal before you started it up to make it nice and clean, but once you start it and get it hot with that oil on it you are screwed

 

Thanks bro! I really do need to come up there soon! My nephew just turned 5! I need to see the little guy!

We'll race! bracket status!

Actually NO its not.. they are very similar.. but have a different tubing design..

Notice the difference..

Racing solution header..


CA header..

 

I see that you said it shifted the powerband up a little.

Does that mean your low end took a dive or is a little less than it was?

I am almost certain I want one of these, but I value my low end.

 

Its the Cobalt Addiction V1 header.

It is.

They were both made by Cobalt addition. After CA came up with the new design (V2) they sold off their first design to Racing Solutions.

 

so if you go with racing solutions what downpipe can you get for an automatic to fit perfect

 

Stock?

Or any dp that bolts into the stock location. ZZP, CTI, etc.

 

We can't use the stock LSJ DP since it's shorter (it'll either rub or be too tight). We have to use an aftermarket...ZZP is what I would recommend, but any will work.

 

im putting this same header on and i ran in to a problem the pipe is hitting on of my coolant lines and causing it to leak. any reason why it would do that ?

 

Because this header wasnt designed for 2nd gen L61s.

 

is there any way around that problem or am i screwed ? it came off a newer ss

 

Are you saying it works on 05-07's without hitting a coolant line, but not the 08+ Cobalts?

 

theres a tab on the coolant tube, flatten it and rotate the whole pipe out of the way, use a flat head screwdriver and the then give it a good pull and it will rotaed out of the way

same thing happend to me a long time ago

 

Does this rerouting of the coolant line only exist in the 08+ Cobalt 2.2s?
