She's got GM stage 1 kit with a stage 3 clutch and a muffler delete! And to say the smile is plastered on my face is an understatement. People are already challenging me to races.

I know exactly what you mean. Watch that torque steer and also bring a change a clothes the first time you drive in the rain. Those famous brembos will surely clean out your insides when you press the brakes.

I don't mean to sound rude but there's no pissing contests about the torque steer. The cobalts are fast and the steering wheel wants to rip from your hands at times of standing on it. However when they are stable at high speeds it seems to handle pretty well.

thanks! Yeah the power difference is immense. To me it's unreal (I've always owned something slow) how fast it gets going in a short amount of time. Also the launch control feature is badass. If anyone has any tips about this, what's the fastest way to start off from a dig?

No pissing contest just a comment.

Are the Facebook groups starting to spill onto CSS? Or was it the other way around... Can't even remember anymore.

You running around with traction control off? Mine does not have torque steer bad enough for me to even have 2 hands on the wheel.

Hit a groove and it pulls the car around. Can be taken as torque steer.

Idk. It might just be that I just came out of a base model and into a gms1 LNF so I can't really compare to any other car for torque steer cause the Basemodel didn't have any.
