Replacing GM Chip Help
I just purchased a hypertech power chip for my 05 cobalt base. Only problem is i dont know how to put it in ive been trying for a couple of days now and i can not figure out how. I read that it is by the fuse box by the glove compartment but can someone help me with some pictures of where the stock chip is? Please
its in the engine compartment dude. if you dont see it you need to go to the eye doctors. its directly infront of the fuse box underneath a rounded plastic cover. If you really need me to take a picture let me know.
did you get it off ebay? does it look like a little weird tiny shape with a single wire coming out each end?

wow wtf is that...a trifecta tune would of ran you the same cost and you could of gotten a whole lot more, more power, no speed limiter, raise your rpm limiter...what a waste...

ECM if your a 05-06 is located in the same place, but looks different, we use a 16bit ecm, the 07+ uses a 32 bit with a different casing...ECM is located between my intake and my fuse box...good luck figuring out where your plug that thing into, let alone how...

okay, now that you've been sufficiently flamed... a trifecta tune is basically refering to a company that can tune your car via a mail and you give them your car's information and they send a programmer with a preloaded tune build just for you. you plug it into the port that you get your diagnostics at and upload it and 15-20 minutes later it's a whole different car.
thats excatly what i needed to know im no pro at car modding obviouslly but i take classes and learn along the way. and where does this programmer plug into for when it does come via email? where do the diagnostic plugs plug into?
