Dying of spring mod fever!
Dying of spring mod fever!
So whos with me here?
I got very good tax check this year and wanted to get a few things done to my car, i have no garage now and im the process of moving as well as working 60hrs a week and supporting 2 kids, I have ZERO time for mods and its killing me. So ive ordered a bunch of stuff thats piling up that i wont be able to get a crack at until the 3rd week of March when i move into the new house WITH A GARAGE!!! So god damn excited to finally have one.
Who else is in a similar situation where your waiting to do spring/summer mods? (most due to weather I assume)
Ive got:
FE5 Struts/Shocks
FE5 Endlinks
Tsudo Exhaust
K&N Intake
2.2/2.4 Manifold Upgrade
Jensen UV8 Single din DVD
Pioneer 6.5's/Kenwood 6x9's
2 12" MTX Magnum knock offs w 1000w amp
FXR Retros
Blue LED Speeo Cluster
Blue LED HVAC Cluster
Some of this i just bought the other day and is being shipped but most are accumulated in my backseat/trunk/basement. nothings installed yet. I might get a chance to install the fe5 stuff tomorrow and possibly the exhaust, most the other stuff is going to wait until march/april

If you are up for a drive, I'm holding a Mod day at my garage (March 31) so if you are interested in coming just let me know. We will have plenty of hands available and more than enough tools to take down and rebuild any car lol.
and lowell is about 2hr 15 min for me. not too bad.
I wanna come to a mod day!! Ive had a full stage 2 kit with 2.8 pulley and rotated mounts for about 6 months that ive been dying to install. with school and work and living in a dorm there was no time. just finished school last week tho so now ive got lots of free time!!
i still havent heard final details for saturday, however i work till 6pm. Whatever it will be ill just be stopping by quick, my daughter was born on Thursday and i really shouldnt be out at a car meet/bar, if I were being responsible. Although a little hour or two wont hurt.

Please join this thread https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/nort...7/index18.html for all the info and updates on the meets. There will be two mod meets that day. One will be in MA for most of the local guys and the NH guys wanted to do one in dover so they will be doing one up there.
oooh, so youll have an hp there, so what would i have to pay for a tune for my 2.2 and how would that work? Ill have intake/exhaust/2.4 manifold so i might get some gains.
Person to talk to would be Gremlin85. He will be coming down with my this Saturday so if you do decide to stop by at some point, you can talk with him.
mod fever: I'm looking at pricing for a catted dp, charge piping, intercooler, Aeroforce gauge.... then getting the tune.
And I'm still thinking of getting funny and putting LS emblems on my 09 SS/TC sedan..... sleeper mod.

catless dp is my next mod, already did a muffler delete and a 26psi hp tune. Loving it
does the inside of your cobalt look like this:

in the car fe5 package, intake, intake manifold, gauges, b&m shift plus, led interior glow kit and a few other things, in the process of moving and have no storage space, this is REAL SPRING MOD FEVER!

Looks like my car a few weeks ago when the S256ET kit was across the back seat!
