its tinted but i'm not sure about lowered. pretty sure its a stage 2 car also, he was shifting a little higher then 6500 seemed like.. probably the same one your obsessing over

I'm not a fan of cobalts looks, but they look 10x better with a drop and no spoiler IMO

The only thing i know about the chick is she used to date someone who worked at Friendly chev, and my friend partied at his house i just see her all the time

Hey guys.. just letting you know I'm selling my GM Stage 3 PCM. Thought I'd give you all dibs on it if anyone is interested since you're local.

not bad at all it's too bad there wasn't somethin i've upgraded on mine, i'd give it to you for cheap like the manifold or exhaust.

you'll maybe be faster than my car i hope so

i had a black 2.4 ss that was turbo'd race me this weekend and he didn't do so hot, i was actually quite disappointed that i smoked him. that's somethin i'd think would hang with me or beat me although i'm supposidly pushin 260 hp to the wheels and 240 torque but i don't have that proven yet. guess i just expected more after all the mods you'd have to do to turbo it and havin the bigger engine. but still a nice car

i don't need the mani or anything like that... all that stuff is included with the purchase.

you raced a turbo'd balt? who was it? are you sure it was the 2.4? a 2.2 more than likely won't beat you, especially if it was a your general bolt on kit.

wonder if he was tuned

let's see here...

fujita 3in cai (comes with the purchase)
cobalt addictions 4-1 v1 header (on car)
xtc dp (on car)
gmpp sport catback (on car)
seimans 60's injectors
edit: 3.0 (not going any lower due to compression)
meth injection
one wicked tune
would like to get an upgraded h/e, but a stock one will doe for now
i'm going to need some tranny mounts and solid engine mounts too

new clutch, flywheel and a hahn 3in exhaust will come over the winter

also contemplated doing some porting/polishing since the blower, intake and throttle body will already be off the car

and i don't expect to have this up and running before winter hits. pretty much by the end of september my car is in the garage so i can get most of this done before the cold months hit

I could possibly have a stock LSJ throttle body for ya, and live very near Johns auto parts..

I gotta put my Trailblazer TB on first though lol


Also, guys if any of you are un-sure about modifying your vehicles yourself, and want someone to do it for you. I have a ton of experience with these engines/transmissions and even tuning, plus many many many more. also have done things like porting polishing brakes suspension..anything you name it I can do it for a good price.. Just hit me up we can work something out

Well, you actually motivated me to get off my ass and install this damn thing.. Install went okay, a lot of ******* around, having fun, but it went well.

Got a lot more tuning to do because of it though . I'll let you know in a few days whether or not if I like it or not

^^ sounds good. I won't be up there for a few weeks, so plenty of time

btw, how does the spec clutch and flywheel hold up? I need to upgrade but i don't need to overkill a daily driver. just something that's made for the 280 hp/tq range
