he has a ss/tc so there is no header. and if he has full exhaust im guessing there is some sort of downpipe there. to answer your question, look into trifecta or hptuners.

Not trying to be a douche but there has been a huge argument about this subject today that the majority of us were in including myself and 06cobaltncng. Go to google type in 08 ss/tc tune + cobaltss.net and you should find enough threads to help steer you on what you can do.

Ehh, he's simply looking for a tune. If the man above was the guy doing the tuning or a business partner then yes that would be wrong.

The guys not going to pay to be a sponsor when he doesn't even know about this place haha, someone was simply passing on a tuner they heard about.

according to the new rules it seems like you must be a vendor in order to tune peoples car's no 3rd parties allowed.
