Manitoba SS's 2008
I installed them myself. I had access to a lift and an allignment mesuring thinger (rofl).
Andrew and I are going to be putting his springs on at some point this summer (I beleive that is still the plan). Perhaps we can get yours done at some point as well.
I think Wes offered to help do the work?

you have to send the company the control arms. truly it is the rear bushing that is not very good (there is a front and rear bushing on the front control arm)
I would see what GM did about it on the 08 SS. they addressed this problem.

And Ryan / Jeff, I agree with both of you, haha, so there!
Wes: The Pro-Kit only lowers the rear by .5, but it evens out the car nicely. And I can't find anywhere that says but I'm sure the springs would be much stiffer also? (Anybody know). Anyways, I had totally forgotten about the Pro-Kit but now that you mentioned it again it seems like the better idea than sportlines for my specific case.
Edit.. Did some searching. turns out Eibach even has a "Drag-Kit" line specifically to deal with weight transfer but they don't have an application for the cobalts

Neutrino you should run with out wing and with your new spoiler. did you get it or put it on yet?

++75hp should max you out for a build. I think it is a good idea.
So last week I changed the fuel filter.. Paid $15 vs a very impressive $92 dollars from local GM. (I was in a rush otherwise I would've got one from Pablo)
This week... spark plugs.. and I got laughed at.. I was expecting a bad price from GM but they quoted $16, and I was thinking sweeeeet not bad.. and I said "thats all 4 right"?? And then he laughs and says no... (It was a friendly laugh though, all cool)..
Anyways... part source ftw..

So what does everyone think Im going to run at the track next weekend...?!?!?!
Going to be running...
- TUNE!!!!!
- Stage 2
- Ingalls Torque
- CAI
- Ported Supercharger
- 3" DP to Electric cutout
- 75 Shot Nitrous
- Front Slicks
I feel overheating and something breaking before I get a run in lol. I might just run it a couple times not spraying then try it out. Bad news Bears. Anyone gonna come out for a cruise and watch?

well if you launch hard on the slicks i will say 13.4 - 13.6 but i'm no expert.. and if your going to run the nitrous I will definitely be out to see that.
there is usually a few out.. if it's raining hard probably not

Oh Ill be running the nitrous...just want to test the motor and tune on the track for the first couple runs...then ill break out the nitrous.
if its drizzling off and on during the day ill still be out, and if its raining with a hard downpore ill keep inside and dry lol. but ya ill message you or "thought" and see how u guys go about running into eachother ... cuz i wudnt mind catching up with the cobalts for some train action lmao.
I dont know one cobalt owner that doesn't want to get rid of thier car now. I like my car. But it was fun for a while but it is falling apart and nothing is really working right. Then again I was messed around with everything...but the radio (and that doesnt work). Its time to upgrade for moi. So in the next couple months Im going to be parting my car out so if your interested in some parts. Let me know.
hey if your getting rid of your short throw or headlights lemme know

What kind and size slicks?
I'll say 14.3 without nitrous and a 13.7 with it. i might change my mind after I find out what kind of slicks.
I think it all depends if you can hook with those slicks and not send axles flying lol.....
But if you don't break, you should be in mid 13s with nitrous, high 13s without. Heat will be an issue, but no more so than any of us.
