Trifecta- should have just went with hp tuners from the start. Car can really be dialed in a lot better with a good tuner, using hpt.

Haha. I already did the turbo swap once. I'm not doing it again. Especially since I already have a decent set up, nothing's gonna change, but if I didn't have the zfr without a doubt I would be buying a 259.

Good idea! I'm definitely down to trade it for some stage 1 cams with larger fuel lobe if anyone's interested. Should I make a thread for it? N I just ordered the opel injectors.

Well I have a few, I wish I didn't sell my coilovers, zfr, full bolt ons, interceptor gauges etc. etc.

I wish I could be satisfied with the retro I built for longer than a month. I have rebuilt my retros 4 times and each time I use more and more components and more expensive projectors. They are done perfect everytime. I should just sell them every time I make a new set.

Also I wish I didn't hit a dead dear in northern Virginia omw to Myrtle Beach. That one cost me a front bumper and various other parts.

I wish some ******* didn't put sugar in my gas tank, just because someone told him I slashed the tires on his car. I am 22 years old with a son and a family, slashing someone's tires is the last thing I want/have time to do. I got most of the sugar out but it clogged the strainer on my fuel pump and it burned it.

Luckily my insurance covered it and I got a brand new fuel system, including tank, lines and injectors.

Thrirdly, I wish a semi hauling rocks didn't fly by me on the highway. He passed me while I was driving in the middle lane and he was in the slow lane. I was doing roughly 60mph, that ******* had to be doing 80. Right when he passed me I got hit with a barrage of golf ball sized gravel. It cracked my windshield, put 3 dents in my hood and 2 dents on my roof.

Lastly, I wish my car wasn't stuck in a hailstorm 3 years ago. I had upwards of 35 small dents all over the car, all were fixed with paintless dent repair.

I love my car to death, I bought it new in 2010 but all this bs happened in these 4 short years lol. I have had the worst luck.

Wish I never wasted money on Cobalt SS/SC cold air intakes.

Also, wish I didnt swap and try so many different brands of downpipes. Wasted money there to.

Other than that, I'm very happy with my car.

Lowering springs: Should have went coilovers all along. H&R springs are okay I guess.
