alright there is atleast 5 of us if not more just around the philly area that are looking to be tuned with hp tuners.. most of us have the 2.4ss is there anyone out there that can tune? seriously?

i think my buddy knows how to tune but we havent bought the hp tuners software yet....culd always buy a new pcm an get it adjusted to what u have from intense racing

i think i might have to do that.. that or this other company

Finding a tuner for this car is like playing the lottery. I dont understand how this car can be that rare for tuning. Just blows my mind

yeah but for a ss/sc its ALOT easier than a 2.4 ss ... and i checked intense's site and its just ss/sc atleast there is a vector tune for my car. which is what im going to get..

PJ in bordentown does HPtuners check for him over on JerseyGM.org his name there is DaFlyinSkwirl

Go to http://www.tunetimeperformance.com/. They are kind of near you and do great work/tuning.

what exactly do you need to be tuned?

I have hp tuners, i know nothing about the voodoo on a 2.4 VVT motor though

nah man no offense but i dont trust him lol i seen him mess up a bunch of cars.. remember that one day with the saturn the ppl from ny

What do you need tuned? bolts ons? boost?

Yup. I'll likely just end up making the trek up to Tune Time in Jersey........$400 for a dyno tune, and free re-tunes for life.

If he's anything like me, he just wants everything dialed in to be running optimally. I have multiple codes thrown from various things, such as having no cat..........my IDC rates are maxed out right now so im gonna put the SS/SC injectors in...........i'd like my AFR adjusted a bit.......raise the redline just a smidge....maybe turn off the top speed limiter....just various things.

Any competent performance shop that uses HPTuners or EFIlive can tune your car... it's just a matter of if you want to pay or not...

so if i buy a stage kit on here then one of you can tune my pcm for me at one of the meets or somethin?...that'd be sweet cuz i'm tryna buy a stage kit but i'd be ass out if i can't find sum1 with hp tuners or a local dyno/tune place..an you aint far from me fbaero10 so if you find a tune place let me kno...maybe i'm just better of buyin a pcm with it tuned already?

Buy the stage kit, have GM install it and they will flash your PCM for you...

i wanna buy a used one...its way cheaper but i hear the codes are tied to the vin numbers so gm won't be able to use that code to flash my pcm...its why i'm looking now also

If you are going to buy used why not just buy 42#, stg 2 belt, and a 2.9?

yea thats prolly wat i'm aiming for...then i can buy the plugs new since they only like 40$....has anyone done the install of their kit themselves?...jus curious how hard it is to pull the pulley off an put a diff one on an do the new belt looks like a PITA

Crazy Carl has a point its almost or cheeper to just build your own and you dont hae to pay it all at once ether... for the past 6 months i been gathering up parts here and there but havent put anything on except what i could i like 2 more parts then the balt is going from intake and exhaust to FAST just all at once but it wasnt bad on the pocket cause i didnt do it all at once

I will review a 2.4 pcm and if anyone is willing to make the trip possibly out to jersey I am more than willing to help.

if anyone wants,i had talked with Area47 he said he will come up and tune, i just need more interest. 6 cars minimum, 175 for 07's 275 for 05-06's(ss/sc's)

yeah but there arent many cobalts around here, there is a **** load of shops i dont wanna call around and just go to anyone.. id like someone who has experience.. not "lets give this a shot"

yeah tell him fbaero10.. is interested as well he knows me.. and i know of atleast 3 others.. but we all have 06 SS/NAs.. which is why i made this thread.. its causing problems lol

and there are a few others that i know of want tuning also soo im sure u wont have a problem

yeah maybe if we can get a list goin of people who want to get tuned
