Some of my Christmas presents! (pic inside)



I got the best girlfriend in the world! This book should keep me from asking to many stupid supercharger questions.

Anyone local put one of these shifters in? I know Cody had one, but I don't remember anyone else having one. Either way, by this afternoon, I'll have mine in.

Anyone else get any cool car stuff for Christmas?

actually in 06 gm put a torx bit on the top, that holds the factory shift knob on, so it wouldnt fly off, as found in every vehicle they design to be a shorter shifter(the knob jsut would normally pop off)

Local enough! Do you like it?

I hope to see your car next year. From what I've heard/read you're looking at 2.4 turbo right? Sounds absolutely insane.

Did I just jack my own thread???

I installed my shifter yesterday and I absolutely love it! What a difference it makes. I highly recommend this product to everyone. Installing it was fairly too. It took a couple of hours, but if I were to do it again and help someone local, probably take just over an hour or so.

That's the plan .I'm most likely ordering it tommorow night.I found out that there is going to be a very limited amount of evo's coming so the money for the down payment is going to go into the cobalt now.

Hey Cody!

In hindsight, I should've just offered you cash to trade shifters before you sold your SS. Oh well. Either way, the shifter feels awesome and it's one of the better mods I've done.

I got a few more mods going on before Spring. Hopefully, I'll get some good times at Race City this year.

Ya? Cool! Keep me posted when you come down then.
I'm sure you'll be faster then me, but I think we'd make for some good races.
