a) holding a phone and steering with the same hand is harder than I thought, and b) I don't even know what the hell redline is on this tune, shifted at about 7k I think.

YouTube - ‪Cobalt SS/SC ZZP Stg 2, 2.8", 60#, 3" intake, 40-110 pull‬‏

Best idea I've ever had. Of course you're curious to see how fast the car is relative to others, but instead of getting myself killed racing people, I just go out on a range road well out of town, do a pull and record it, then use my dual monitors to compare it to other cars on YouTube. Brilliant.

What I have in the title of the vid, and also a ZZP heat exchanger. That's all, as far as I know.

The mic on my phone amplifies it a bit, I think... but that was with the windows up. The whine is grossly loud with that ZZP intake.

It's ZZP Stage 3, 3" Intake, 2.8, 60's, Stage 3 HE, Stage 2 belt, GMPP Clutch, 1 step colder plugs and the ZZP Tune (which stinks haha).

That whine sounds great, I'm assuming that was the 508?

no biggie;
I phone you, mark, and steve... all no-answers...

but it didn't matter anyway - Adrian said him & Joel were not left waiting too long.

@Joel & Adrian ~ thanks for meeting up last night!

@Adrian - umm, yeah, that was me this morning... stupid douche-nozzles in dodge truck thatought i wanted to race him when I was only trying to get in the to correct lane to turn onto #3... and not wanting to lock up the brakes... yeah you saw the rest.
Nothing like the spinning tires through an intersection while trying to turn (with RWD btw, it works out much better)...



Greetings from the sunny Metropolis of Great Falls!

@Jordan;
Does that mean you went back to PNP to grab the valve cover?

I was thinking, no WAY that's him driving like that. But then I remembered, as far as I know there are no yellow 2.0's in this entire city, so it had to be.

As far as I know it won't. The 2.0 and 2.4 valve cover/head are completely different

A little girl at a traffic light was holding up a "honk if u <3 Canada" sign so everyone's honking like mad. Then a dude in the pax seat of a car climbs out of his sunroof, unravels a huge American flag and just starts waving it like mad. The reactions were hilarious... definitely the funniest thing I've seen on Canada Day.

I'm doing my hardest to stay out of boost and not cause a scene, but I still heard a, "that car sounds like a vacuum cleaner" today.
