***OFFICAL*** NYIRP 2009 Test 'n Tune
Im not liking how my car is running. Up top it has sputters around 5500 6000 range. Also idling a little rougher than I think it should should and def doesnt feel like im making the power it used to. Anyone know someone local for tuning?
Good chance of rain Friday. We'll have to wait and see.

Wait a minute. You modded your car and you thought you wouldn't go through maintence items quicker? Sounds like you shouldn't be modding.
Sounds to me like ur getting sparkplug blowout. I would buy a set of 1 step cooler plugs and gap them .05 smaller than factory gap ( .035 is usually good ).
Intake downpipe and tune should be nothing but good for the car as it improves its filty lean stock tune(in case you didnt know this). since spark plugs i had to replace twice already(once totally stock). Ive already had engine problems the first 500 miles, and rotors and breaks were totally shot after 3k. Ya I know modding causes things to be replaced sooner but at the same time its a brand new car that has been driven very easy the whole time since ive had it pretty much all WINTER. so lets not make ignorant statments for no reason, when you have no idea how I care for my car on a daily basis.
You owned a cobalt with nothing but problems...Harsh? I dont think so. Thanks for the advice though...
