I was thinking about that too actually. Joel and I are planning to get tuned by him and acey was considering it as well. Joel talked to Vince and is having him do a complete custom turbo tune as well. So at least you will have some guaranteed customers down south.

 

i got my quote for my car done. first guy was $1500, and he wanted to install it himself, so we said we'll call you lol. second guy was $700 for just painting. so we are going with the second guy. he has been painting for 25 years so im comfortable with him. getting it done next weekend

Cobalt SS Network - Awards

 

Awards? Wtf?

 

I really hope that wasn't a stab at me?

Ya know it's really too bad I'm only getting on here and involved now, and not really sticking around. A good buddy of mine, and also the owner of the Mustang Shop here in Calgary is a great tuner. I spoke to him a week or so ago about the HPTuners software, of which he is quite aware. I had already planned on becoming a Trifecta dealer, and was hoping to had the HP software to that list, and using the Mustang Shop's dyno for any of you that wanted a real dyno tune, at a discounted rate. I've dealt with other tuning software in the past, and for all their differences... in the end, it's always the same thing.

Is Vince a Canadian guy? If so, **** ya!

 

no i think it was directed towards projekt. a guy from manitoba

 

ATTENTION ACEY

Hey I noticed you said something about having to squeeze a ballast under your headlight, or something to that effect... are those the projector headlamp assemblies? Or are you talking about an HID kit you have installed for those headlamps?

If so, I have a really easy fix for ya.

 

Did I hear someone say custom tuning in Calgary?

 

Silver medal my ass, got to work harder for the gold

 

same lol, gotta post more lol. i have been getting into alot of threads recently though.

on another note, me and my buddy were bored tonight so we drove around for 3 hours. only burned 1/4 tank. we went on 22x, got away from a cop lol, down to race city (it was closed tonight), and then to barlow and 61st to see some ricers, and then to the chinook theatres to see more rice. i got alot of pics of rice lol. also an evo X there.

 

Hai. It fits fine, the HID ballasts fit right in front of the headlight bracket; just a snug fit making sure no wires get pinched and everything is secure when the headlight goes back in. My problem now is that when I took apart the 3rd gens, I broke the tab that holds the projector itself in place from the top, so aiming them is going to be interesting.

 

I'm going to Edmonton then to calgary sometime in the next month (shopping), any meets going on in Calgary? There is 0 Balts in Saskatoon. I've seen maybe 4 TCs here and two of them are friends of mine.


Also is there any trifecta dealers in Calgary or Edmonton . ........^_______^


Please some one let me know!

 

Let us know when your coming into town and I'm sure a bunch of us can meet up with ya

 

is that may 15th trip still on... i havent seen that thread in a while

 

mark was custom tuning people in calgary for years, he recently sold it to me. There is a couple people around that have hp tuners locally

 

Ya I knew mark did tuning but when I talked to him he was thinking of getting out of it, then he sold his hpt to you. I would just like to find out who affers tuning. For future reference

 

Cranemaster,

I'll have the trifecta cables in about a week here if you make it to Lethbridge and you should be able to just order a tune from Vince. Also if you come down to Lethbridge at all we could do a mini-meet.

Joel

 

My LE5 just blew up.

Was cruising in 4th at about 55 or so and it made a weird kinda sputtering noise, then I heard a BANG. It now makes a hell of a racket, a constant clanging noise... got it to the dealer, will know more on Monday.

Ideas for a new car? Really with the amount of money I've dumped into this one, I have nothing left. I need to go back to university, so I'll have to get a Civic or a Tib or something.

 

Dude, seriously? We were supposed to meet up tonight lol.

Did it sound like valvetrain, drivetrain or internal?

Get an SS/TC or SS/SC .

Joel

 

well i spent the last 4 hours waxing my moms car and it looks sweet. my first time waxing a car. i didnt go all out with the clay bar, but with my car i will, here are the pics: https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/gene...-waxed-249484/

 

hopefully its nothing major. u just put so much into that car

 

Yeh I know. Assuming it's a goner, that's why I kinda want to get another NA or a G5 GT, then I can take the wheels, springs and my other stuff with me.

 

I thought you still had a bit of warranty?

Joel

 

I do. Not sure they'll cover it though... and given the amount of **** that has already broken on this car I dunno how smart it would be to hold on to it. Should have thought of that before I dumped even more money into it, I guess.

 

I don't see why they wouldn't cover it, it just blew up. If they don't cover it call GM and make them.

Joel
