Holy Crap, my car has horsepower! I didn't even know it came with that option. 
J/K
Dynoed stock at 214hp/201tq, Got stage 2 today(Santa came early) and since my wife doesn't know much about cars I have her convinced that I need a CAI in order for stage two to work properly, ordering that tomorrow. I'll dyno again as soon as I find one here.

Yeah I called just about all of them, they can get you 9.5:1, but its a custom order piston and will take a little longer to get. I talked to Scott from CPP today and he was talking about trying to get a GB on wiesco pistons if we could get enought people interest in a GB. The compression ratio would probably just depend on what U wanted I don't think prices vary on custom pistons.

Mahle Power Pak kit won't work on the LSJ rods, they have a 21MM wrist pin, and LSJ rods have a 23MM wrist pin. So, unless you call Mahle up and custom order a set your probably going to have to use 2.2 rods. I'll be able to tell you more tomarrow.

P.S. After I do my twin screw swap (including full motor build, I'll race you... with a cobalt ss SUPERCHARGED unlike yours)

Now your being mean to me.
Most people know I never originally planned to get rid of the SC. The project grew, went sideways and then changed. I am now where this project has taken me and to start in another direction because of new developments will only delay me more. I have been with out my car since May 21st and I really want my car back. Sadly I will just have to accept a twin turbo Cobalt.
