rod just took it to the wrong shop. he would hav ebeen done thousands and thousands of dollars and probably a year and a half ago had he took it to a shop who knew what they were doing.

i got rid of my orange cobalt because....

i owed 14 on it, and i got 11 out of it.
i was able to get out of a gmac smartbuy
the loan out amount on a cobalt ss at the time was like 20 bucks
i was able to get into a truck for less than retail, so im not upside down in anything even rolling 3 grand into it
i broke a ring land on 1 piston, and 2 others looked like **** but didnt get replaced.
i spent a grand on a clutch

plus, newsflash, cobalts are rattle boxes. i needed a truck anyways. i drove a turbo one today, and even though it was somewhat fun to drive i still wouldnt buy another one. actually, it was an 09 with 19k on it. needed tires, an oem intake assembly, and some warranty work. we had 13.5 in it and it got wholesaled.

my truck may not be fast, but its pretty.

Just admit it jeremie, cobalts are to much power for you to handle.

my turbo lt did it to and the maf was loose this one on the ss/sc is good i think it may just be how its tuned. who tunes locally that i could get it double checked with, id like to get the best i can out of it. Id like to know its done right. or can somebody reflash the stage II tune easily?

Bryan, you should have put your car on Barret Jackson.

An LSJ swapped LS, with a body kit and wheels went for $13k. I think you could have gotten at least $18k out of yours.
