to be honest i cant be happy pumping out only 12 pounds of boost so i would upgrade the s/c ... so thats what i would invest my money in ... i did hear somewhere that a cobalt maxed out 16psi but my goal is to run 19's

I agree with Cavy. I live in DC so I sit in a lot of traffic so tint would be first on my list. Then probably a cat back exhaust and intake. Then probably a drop and hopefully some sort of computer upgrade. Thats maybe 1500 bux tho. I dunno what I would do with the rest. Maybe invest in it a IRA

you'd have to fill the trunk with $5000 of sand to run 19's.

if you mean 19psi , don't set goals like that, because you can be running a lot of boost but have a car that is not much faster and just kill the engine; set ET (time) goals it is the best way to measure a car. , you can definatly get a 13 sec run out of the stock blower.

20's, drop, tint




(I don’t want to hear it about the 20’s. I like them and they fit the coupe’s large wheel wells perfectly IMO )

I'd have upgraded to leather heated seats and XM radio. Other than that I don't think I would change much. I am not a big moder or whatever. And by not big I mean I don't at all.
