So sunday night i was bitchin and bitchin about how i got the absolute worst year of a cobalt. Well it appears my luck has changed. I just got a call from Mainline (in watrous) and somehow i got approved to finance a ss/TC. Not totally sure if im going to take it, would love the challenge of turboing my 2.4, but on the other hand i would love to keep my warrenty while picking up atleast 80 whp (with a new car of course) Just thought i would update you guys.

However, you guys are in Regina... you have one of Canada's best tuners right in the city. His name is Russ K on the HPT forums. You've probably seen him around Regina in a white C5 Z06.
Do you this guys email? I've been trying to PM him on HPT but his inbox is full.

Sorry, no I don't.

I'll see if I can get in touch with him for you, though.

So, you'll be at home most of the time now, huh?

I may be travelling though quiet a bit... mom and dad are both out in Brandon on that Clipper job (or what ever that end is called).

private sales will always net you a better resale man. and completely off topic but have you heard about the zzp turbo kit for the 2.4? i know you have one on the way but they are claiming 250+hp for less than 3. im definately gonna keep my eye on it.

Sweet man! Imperial Blue looks great on the SS'. I seen a new one in the Peg the same. And i'm jealous over your lsd, this peg-legged burnout and launching is pissing me off. I ordered mine with lsd, but because of demand issues, it would have been another 4 months -the middle of winter- before i got my perfect Cobalt, so i just went with an open diff LBM one with everything i wanted except lsd... oh well. I won't comprimise when it comes to my Camaro!


Oh yea, i'll probably be passing through Regina on sunday late (6-7ish, most likely) with my Caprice... if anyone wants to grab a bite to eat or meet somewhere?

I do have a sport, i just call it an lt sport cause thats what the badges say ha ha


I know what you mean, the car wont be here till january!!!! Middle of winter ha ha. It looks like finding winter rims may be a bit of a pain in the ass. I hope i like the imperial blue, in some light it looks awesome and others im not so sure, thought i would just take the risk though, wasnt going black for the third time ha ha

The Imperial Blue is great. It looks almost like a metallic black(ish) at night, and is a nice deep blue during the day. I don't think it'll dissapoint.
