Hey Ernie

Sounds good to me. If you are going I'll meet you in Red Deer and we could cruz down for the show as long as work does not intervene. Saturdays are normally good for me as long as nothing work wise comes up on the Friday. (Damb Oil & Gas)

Well, I'm runnin the 2.85 right now but may take it off until I get ready to flash the tune. I don't think that running the 2.85 is really seeing any gains other than low end torque as the stage II tune is set up for a 3.0 pulley and no CAI.

I know with the tune I will be able to find a few more horse and might be able to pull off a 13.8. I guess we'll have to wait and see at the track. Not sure about launchin though as this is my first FWD muscle and there not easy to launch.

Actually if you guys want to you can email me too for any ideas etc.. Too bad we don't have more people showing interest in a little cruize to the show but np.. I would have loved to seen a bunch of Cobalts all parked next to one another at the show.. REPRESENT eh

Ok, this March, 1-4 is the Edmonton Motor Show, thats all I know for car shows in Edmonton! Don't know if the people in Edmonton want to chime in about that? My whole point of starting this thread was at least getting a meet of sorts in Edmonton at the EMS..

I had this dream of having the majority of whoever showed parked together.. Sorta a Cobalt paking area.. I still am going to try and go this weekend and am willing to even go later in the day if I can cruize with anyone from Cow town and area to the show.. Damn this long winter!!!!!! Oh the World Of Wheels was just last week/ weekend in Calg if I remember correctly.. I don't think it goes to Eddy as they have the Motor show..

OKay so far i came up with this....

March 14th to 18th, calgary auto show.

http://www.calgarymotordealers.com/a...07/ticket.html

I really doubt this is the tuner one... definitely will be having some nice cars, but nothing tuner i dont think... Looks like i missed the tuner one on saturday last weekend.


As for March 3rd, it's a pretty lame on in my eyes too.... here is some pictures and information..... man i'm sad...

Ah ok, lol the auto show in Calg seems like the same show in Eddyton.. It looks like people in Calg are better off waiting for the Auto show there then drive 2hrs just to see the same thing! Myself I know what the Ed show is like soo thats why I want to go, they have a nice set up and its always cool to see whats comming out and whats new in products etc.. I don't think anyone in Edmonton with Cobalts is going cause noone has said anything in this thread ..
