keep your stock lights tom. if anything mount projectors in em via retrofit.

damn your stg2 cam..... lol. on a side note, your car pulls so very similar to mine.

tom i forget did you do traction mods besides the footballs? wanna do the traction bar setup sometime for us both? i'll help haha you just know how i am about drilling/cutting/taking things out other than electronics. hahaha

wow nice video tom

its different of idling and cruising around video.
sound very good compare to mine.
is it pulling harder that my car idk.
full tank? 1/4 empty is better.
but overall it good. just turn your camcorder to the left and everything ll be perfect.

what is your rpm limiter? 7500

yea was just meaning where your power kicks in. your car appears to have the same curve just taller(hp/trq). Right when yours starts decently building is where mine starts, and out high lobes kick in the same time but then blam your high lobe is also taller and the difference seen becomes much bigger.

damn

you'd be correct sir. tom's let me drive his cobalt a few times in the past (matched his best time in his car btw). it's definitely quicker than mine. haven't rode in or driven it since his rebuild though. He's probably actually hanging at the rear bumper of a SS/SC at the end of the 1/4 now I'd bet.
