Hahah yeah I figured as much. I wanted to roll down my window and ask him if he had any sealant for that leak, cause his toy wasnt cuttin it. He was bein cheap too, after I took him and it was clear that i'd pull every time he gave up for a while and wouldnt look at me for a few miles. looked kinda pissed.. so everytime we had a stretch i'd drop it to 2nd and get his attention, but he wouldn't unless a car was in front of me and i could get around, then he would slowly drop the gears (he sucks ass by the way), block me in, and THEN take off like he was SOOOOO much faster.... Don't get me wrong I like hondas when built correctly but its idiots who dont do it right and ******** who act like they drive ferraris that make me hate them.
Edit:... wait a sec... you're the red cobalt base model with the kit and dual exhaust behind the library, right? I was behind the Sol leavin the neighborhood around 5-ish. My girlfriend lives around the corner. I always swing into your circle to admire the kit and how it looks with the dual system! small world....

yeah thats my car but i dont live over that way, im underway on a ship right now and my girl is driving my car around and keeping it from getting towed off base. if i would have left it on base for this underway time it would have gotten towed. but that circle thing you are talking about, the del sol lives right accross from where my car is parked at. i was talking to the guy, its not a leak he has the blow off valve set for 6 lbs of boost and that tubro is produsing 22lbs of boost so about 16lbs of the boost is blowing out of the valve. he really needs to get some 8.1:1 compression pistons so he can up his boost to like 12 or 14 lbs. right now he putting out about 20 or 30 hp more then a cobalt base 2.2L. i raced the guy and he only beat me by half a car link in the 1/4 but in the mile run he has more top speed and beats me by like 3 or 4 links

Eh, he does need those pistons, and bad. Why hasn't he done it yet? i always see that car there, he's had that system for a month i think. maybe more. I dont live there, just noticed it one day when i was walking with my girl through that part of the neighborhood.

not sure, i think he spent all of his savings on the turbo and has to save up for some pistons. im trying to get the 2.2L CNC ported head but i cant find a good quote on one yet. Lee at Bay Chevy says he can get one for $2020 but at the chevy place on Va Beach Blv. forgot the name but its accross from food lion down by military cirlce mall. They quoted me $1700 for the CNC ported head. i plan on getting the stage 1 cams from turbotech racing, CNC ported head, 10.1:1 comp pistons, bigger valves, polish the head, aluminum air intake manifold instead of our plastic one that we have right now, dual ferra valve springs, and ferra vlaves. after all that and a cat back ill probebly get close to 200bhp or a lil less. only reason im going this way is because these mods dont require computer tuning so ill at least have something better then a base for the time being

Before I forget, on the way home up Va Beach blvd. there was a black Del Sol with a huge front intercooler. Took him form the light and again from a 40 mph roll. He was pushin that little toy hard! I could hear his boost leak like a bitch over my engine roar, but he couldnt pass me. Turboed and tryin his best... he must have had some serious problems.... Pennsylvania plates. Then we had a silver Tc watchin us and tryin to keep up. He took off from the light outside my neighborhood and theres a really nice stretch right there so he got over and I smoked him even though he had a lead. Sorry, just some fun stuff, I like to see what I can keep up with.
I'm hoping to get my shiftknob before sunday which would be even better if art hasnt sold his shifter, and hopefully whatever parts I get for my b-day will be installed by then. So who's down for a group wash/wax before the meet? I know my girl needs it after driving through fields of mud! I'm thinkin sunday around 11 or so near the oceanfront or any good cleaning spots. There's a really good one where holland and S independence split that is in view of towncenter if we dont want to go far.
So what goodies did Tom send us??? I'm excited to know dammit!! So I accidentaly filled out part of the teamscp.com form to get sponsored and ****... well, even if you partially fill it out they call you. "You really should consider joining us, we only have two spots left for the chevy cobalt in your area, etc etc, blah blah ******* bitch blah blah"... everytime she hit the name of my car in her script (insert car name here) she would pause like it was all rehearsed and had to look at my car name like a fill in the blank. Big no no in my mind. Plus, 96 dollar entry fee for some of the horror stories I've heard. Told her I was too busy with bills and that I would consider it. Pretty much true
If i get sponsored, I want to know and trust that person or company. Don't like the sound of this agency thing.
So anyone else for the hptuners? I'm just comfirming it so far me and 2fastforyouraSS and Doc's friend near the border (cant remember .net name)
Sources for photoshop...? Not illegal I hope? I'm also doing research on tuning if anyone has any tips, hints, or good sources. I have a few books and sites I'm using.

today i saw 2 ss/sc's. one of them was brand new, 30 day tags and all. i got up next to the personsaid 'nice car' she laughed and said 'i know' then traffic came so i got behind her. then i rode up right beside her so she could see the decal 'cobaltss.net' -- maybe she did, maybe not. we'll find out. i then zoomed by her, so she could see what the stock was capable of. it was neat.
Will, you drove by me today. i was stuffing my face with Mcdonalds. haha, i need an exhaust though, yours sounds better then mine. coincidently it was right after you passed me, that i saw the other cobalt mentioned above.
