Naw, I doubt it. I've got a few things to take care of before I take my ride back to Matt's shop. It'll be interesting to see what numbers people put out though. Good luck to everyone and I hope no one has any issues...

well....we will be at a shop..... maybe if you ask Matt nicely, we could probably use some of their hand tools. it would be nice to have air tools and a lift, but with a couple of us we can have your car down within 2 hours, and that'll be with us taking our time.

give Matt at Tune Time a call, let him know that your interested in coming and getting dynoed but you have springs you want to install. i dont know if they'll install them or not, but just let him know that you have some people that'll help out with it if we can use their tools, not necessarily their lifts, just the tools and some jacks. it is all up to you now man.

LOL, I have no idea... It is basically a Stage II pulley and injectors (42#) with intake, full exhaust and plugs with a TTP tune... Matt dropped the tune in and the first words out of his mouth after the first dyno pull were "I think we're done here..." He made another pull that was -1hp and unplugged his laptop... He was actually surprised that I ran out of injector on a Stage II pulley... So maybe it's a freak, it sure wasn't anything special when I first dyno'd it the day after I had the dealer install the Stage II kit, it only made 223hp...

We are only 5 days away...

As of today the Weather Channel is stating 4/12 will be high 60º with a 40% chance of thunder showers


If you are bringing a guest that is not a CobaltSS.net member that wants to dyno, list their first names and what type of car they are bringing...

Remember Members and Cobalts are going first!

unfortunately it doesn't look like i'll be attending with the skwirl. I managed to damage the 2.2 and well.. my 2.0 bottom end swap just got bumped up.

I'll try to show up but the skwirl is parked until I get the new eMS installed and the 2.0 in place.

Lol, I'm interested! I have my Trunk mount meth kit from AIS all ready to go in, but I'm to much of a noob to install wires and stuff. but i'll need some mix for when I do have it installed! mmmmmm strawberry would be sick!

Balt36 is a no go now...

Steddy, All you need to do springs is the socket for the top strut nut/sway bar link(18mm iirc) and the socket/wrench for the lower strut bolts/shock mounts(21mm iirc) and a hammer, jack and stands, maybe a pry bar. No spring compressor is needed.

I most definitely needed a spring compressor for the front...
