No jdm's huh? I see how it is. **** it, that's all I have to say. I'll see you around Adam, she's getting new ball joints, valve cover gasket, brakes/pads. I got my Apexi AVC-R boost controller in two days ago. The greddy turbo timer should be in here soon. The HKS BOV is on back order so I canceled it, and I got around to remaking the CAI. I decided to go straight pipe since it sounds so good, and the muffler would only decrease my upper end. I installed that POS faze boost gauge, but its reading 10 vacuum, and 11 psi when I get on it. No way I'm pushing past 8 or 9 right now. Hit me up when your car is done and we'll hang.

I believe a huge reason is because the company that makes the axles for the SS American Axle has workers on strinke. Its not GM its a parts company holding everything up

adam has the most patients! i think your car has been on the side line more then it has been driven. how many miles do you have on your car anyway?
when you start posting #'s on your car, everyone will start crying "i want that now"

45,000 miles on the body, 9,000 miles on the motor

I dont think anyone will be crying they want that now, it will be more like "its still a base cobalt" but ill have the better line of "its still faster then yours"

Eh, still a turdbalt steve... forget the slowvolution too. Get a real sports car

I'll have to pass on that adam, i have work. I'll see you at the meets friday night. Hopefully I'll be pushing 10 psi with that AVC-R put in. 280whp here we go. I love this inline 6. Gobs of torque and without a broken axle. Sounds like a muscle car too, and on a 3" turbo-back with a high flow cat and straight pipe all the way back!

its not too much a turd there landon. motor trend did a test drive on it and it ran the 1/4 13.9 @ 103mph

well, i can respond right back with cranking the boost to 15 to 20psi and the ss/na manifold can handle 20psi from what ive been seeing lately

i think the EVO guys and the STI guys shouldn't try to get impressive numbers on 1/4, i think they should be out running on a rally track. I'd like to see those guy handle themselves out there and use the car for what it was ment to do
