New from MN

Hey Guys!
I am from Minnesota and just purchase my 2010 imperial blue SS a few days ago. I am very happy with how much I got for the price! I also have a Mazdaspeed3 that is fully bolted/tuned but am new to modifying cobalts so I have been looking around for good parts for the car. I am looking to do a 3inch full exhaust, intake, intercooler piping and a tune...maybe a E85 conversion down the road. Let me know if you have any good suggestions, thanks guys! Also I cant figure out how to post pictures yet but when I do I will put up a few of the SS and MS3

Welcome! I'm also in Rochester. I don't see many Cobalt SS's around here. If you see a red G5 GT with a broken front bumper, that's me.

Nice, stepped into the faster better handling and worse interior of the cobalt.

I think I saw your car today at 9:00 AM, parked near Pho Tai, taking up two parking spots , with no Chevy bowtie on the trunk. I had to run to the license center to renew the tags on my car.

Ohh nice that should give you some decent power. But if you want more out of it hptuners is your best bet . And the zzp should be alot better than the gms1 tune
