Hey Sean. Yeah, I am planning on having the TVS running by the end of summer. My build will kinda look like this, in three steps:
(Have the 3" RD Fabs intake on now) Interceptor gauge, Dual pass and Option B and CX Racing H/E - to be installed in the next month or two.
After that, I'll be putting on the Clear Image 3" exhaust system, and an LC-1.
Then the last item will be 60s, NGK 1 steps, TVS and tune.
Somewhere along the way I will need new tires and I'm thinking rotated motor mounts and possibly driveshaft stage 2s. So far, I've only budgeted up to the TVS. But I was seriously thinking of trading the balt in for something different (currently my desktop background) but I decided building it would be cheaper......At least for a couple years.

Your build looks similar to mine except im going to be leaving the dual pass for a later date. Im just going with the ott h/e i got yesterday for now, and since i will have hp tuners meth will defiantly not be out of the equation.

haha dont get me wrong tho..id much rather get rid of my car before dumping money like that into it.
oh and apparently theres a 315 hp cobalt ss/sc driving around town.
guy i work with is good friends with a guy who owns a company making lots of money..apparently his brother has shares in the company and bought a cobalt ss/sc, a dyno, and dumped like 11,000 bucks into his car and got it to 315 whp.
this is just what i heard down the vine...

snapping a stock axel = $100
stock trans surviving =
stg2 axel surviving =
blowing trans =
+ 1500. keep the stock axels. you need a weakpoint somewhere.

Courtney, installed the stage 2 rotated trans mounts,they are relatively easy to install . shifts seem a bit crisper but i haven't been able to test out the wheel hop stoppage, too slippery. i personally don't recommend the stage 2 i think there are too many vibes. stage 1 should be more than fine and have less vibes.
