Newly Acquired '10 SS

Hi everyone,

Today I finally found 2010 Cobalt SS at a great price, picked it up just today. When I got there I noticed a lot of bolt-ons, and the dealership stated to put in E-85 in only, the car seems to run rich with the current setup. So I'm wondering if anyone would recognize this car with the photos attached or any suggestions on where I should start with tuning. Any info is appreciated.

Thanks.

Very nice pick up, I'm pretty sure someone will recongnize it. I'm just surprised a dealership would sell you a modded car like this and even tell you to put e85. They usually try to bring them back to stock because they have to get them through emissions to register them. But very nice car.

Thank you. Yeah I thought that too before going to test drive it. The E-85 statement was the most skeptical.

I don't recognize it specifically, but ABB is a local club up in Denver. I think I know who's it used to be but I have no clue on the mods.

Get the coolant issue fixed first, shot me a PM I might be able to take a weekend day and drive down to Co Springs to see what tune is loaded and log it for you.

Given it's an '10 I'm guessing just low or a leak in the lines not the block

Hopefully it hasn't went bye bye because he hasn't been back on.
