brand new '10 cobalt SS/TC

 

ight see ya soon steve

 

12.93 @ 105mph in the Focus

Have you picked up the '10 balt bobby?

 

couldn't bring it home tonite...insurance issues. i go back at noon to sign papers and pick it up.....Great deal on the car.
MSRP is 25,700. $3krebates/incentives. extra $1,000 off for financing through gmac//ally which brings us to $21,700. Pay off on my current balt is about $8,100 and they are giving me $10,300 for it...which is approx. $2,200 as down payment, and I am putting $0 down out of pocket.
i will be financing about $19k and my payment is about $25 less than my SS/SC

 

Kyle was that before you tuned your car? Or rather have you tuned your car?

I sense a traction issue here as well

 

im still untuned. i wanted a downpipe first but i might just tune it monday

 

Kyle get a ZZP DP, there cheap and it does the same thing every other DP does. I got the CIA one and paid like $380 after shipping.. I wish I paid less cause frankly it just looks good and no one can see it. make sure you get stainless steel.

Mines catted, it sounds pretty good with just the DP and stock exhaust, actually I think I revved my car that one Friday I showed up to Loew's

 

time to start plannin my mods....a buddy owes me close to $400, what to buy...hmmm

 

Steve,

get DP first,

Intake of your choice (im not gonna nutswing the brands, starts too much debate)

dont worry about exhaust, stock is fine (2.75in and no power gains from replacing it)

hotside charge pipe

dont worry about IC unless your upgrading the turbo

Tune

^do this or do what im doing with your tax return monies, lol.




OH MOST IMPORTANT SINCE ITs WINTER. Get tires designed for snow. I got Continental ExtremContact DWS tuned. I think they will work for me. Seriously tires first, or you may have your first wreck this winter... unless your garage keeping it.

 

fast time..... but still a Focus

 

do you care about the warranty?

if you do, just get the GMS1... any catless dp..... hot side cp.... enjoy

if you don't, any catless dp.... hot side cp.... custom tune..... enjoy

 

pssshh, thats exactly what I said give or take. You'd only spend about $1000 in parts and Bam, 12's on the 1/4

 

very easy to make power with the LNF..... it's all in the tune. you have the right tuner do the work and you'll be everytime you drive the car.

 

im too poor for winter tires

 

i don't think the conti's will be any worse than the pirrelli Pzeros that were on the SC

 

i already slide in the winter and theres no snow yet this is gonna be a dangerous winter for me

 

No way, I drove last winter with the stocker and plenty of tread... I've never been so scared driving on snow than I have with these tires. I slid into a snow bank in two inches of snow going 3mph... whatever the slowest speed the engine pulls the car in first gear is.. The best mod i've done for this car is getting rid of the stocker tires next to redoing my brakes. If you live in a warm state like florida or something then Ya, the stockers are great lol.

 

Stockers are summer tires. Need A/S.

 

done.

 

atleast you guys dont have drag radials on all 4 like me lol

 

last I heard, snow on monday and tuesday, change asap. lol.

 

monday and tuesday?! i just slid into a curb today. no damage i was pissed tho weather reporters said flurries. we got 2 inch in 2 hours it sucked! and the car looks amazing bobby

 

I see rain / snow / other precipitation up and down the east coast Sunday. It's supposed to be warm here, like the 40s too, with rain.

 

ya think lol but who likes getting out of the hole anyway i rather give the crowd a show instead lol haha

 

Well MD peoples sorry but Brice and I will be forgoing this due to the deluge we're getting on Sunday. If you guys push this back or something let us know.
