ok i'm going to sound like a newb or "noob" or whatever you like to call it i just got my cobalt it came straight from gm as one of their "show cars" its a 08 sport brand new i was wondering if there were any mods that i could to to add hp (also would like cheap) but not affect the warrenty please don't flame my ass

 

what do u mean by "show car"?

 

Search the 2.4 Performance section. Everything you need is there.

A car in their lobby probably. Mine was. Its been around Richmond Speedway giving one of the Busch drivers and some blonde a ride. I know because her hair was all over the back by the window, lol.

 

Yea also every now and then a GM Dealership will do small "appearance" mods to a car and call it a "show car"

 

yeah take 20 min. and search around its all here. i also have a 08 Sport. If its your DD then you shouldn't need much more speed. but a simple header, high flow cat, intake, and tune would be more then enough, most likely.

 

well my uncle is a chevy dealer and it came from GM with all of the pin stripes and it had every single option on it and i guess they used it in some auto shows key word "some" either way its a cobalt to me

But mainly what i'm worried about is if any of this will affect the warrenty? i guess if i have to then i won't do anything since i have a ls3 69 Camaro project coming up

 

Hey its cool man you said you have an 08 I really dont know if they have any out for 08 yet but here are a couple links you can check. What do you have? the SS/SC or the 2.4?

i thought they stopped making the ss/sc in 08? but its just a 2.4 i haven't really been able to do anything to it yet will these websites have parts taht will keep it in warrenty?

 

Well I have the GMPP performance exhaust and the CAI they didnt void Mine but I also got a HP Tuners Tune and that does.

 

Is not just a 2.4 if you have the auto you can saftly drive and eat a sammich

 

I may be wrong but I though 08 was going to be the last year for the SC

That is true unless for the 08 models they come in autos

 

Last SS/SC was 2007. SS/TC will be out in april.

 

yea but i love to have the "FAST" car and the cobalt doesn't catch anyones eye as being "fast" everyone knows me especially as the V8 guy but i'll sacrafice V8 (until the camaro's done) for MPG

 

Ok thanks for clearing that up see you learn something everyday lol

 

ahh thanks man! i couldnt figure out for the life of me why a stock cobalt would be called a show car but nwo that u explained it...it definatly makes perfect sense.

 

I'm thinkin about just putting a cai on it for now do you guys have any suggestions?

 

I got the GMPP CAI from the dealer ship it does make a difference I paid $288 for it. Im very happy with it Thats all I was running until I got my exhaust then went tune.

 

This intake will work for your 2.4. 2.2 and 2.4 intakes are the same.

 

what does the sport badge look like???

 

it's dark out now and i'll take a pic of it tomorow

 

Chrome

says SPORT with a red block behind the S

 

Injen is a good intake, along with the K&N

 

if your uncle owns/runs the dealership then I'm sure he can help push stuff though your warranty after mods, but your best bet would be to either ask him or call the garage at the dealership, and just ask them, hey, I'm planning on getting an after market ____ for my cobalt, with that void the warranty? if they say no say cool can I get that in writing? then your ass=covered

 

alright i'll probably do that and is there a way to get a good exauhst without get the "fart cannon"?

 

08 Sport..... PM sent.
