gonna start a new thread for everyone to post pics of their cars broken down... this isn't mine but here's a locals that I had to meet to get it going again

(and on a side note... this is whats left of his ZZP d.p.)

 

what the hell happen to the D.P.!!!! and somebody clean them wheels, jk haha, i know they are painted black

 

Paul...... WTF happened????????

 

I put a whole through the flex pipe of my stock downpipe, Reason being that I'm running a tune that shouldn't have a cat, so when the cat plugged up, the exhaust found another way out....lol

 

that d.p. was only 2-3 weeks old... just broke...
well he was running his stock cat with my s/c on his car.... clogged the cat blew out the s/c gasket and died on the LIE serv road... reset his comp... limped it home... then I hollowed out his cat... gonna install XTC header and d.p. on it tonight... with a new s/c gask and get my s/c back.

 

suppose ill chime in. Tranmission is locked in 2nd gear and my transaxle on the driver side is broke. GM denies me warranty work so i just put a complaint in with the BBB and emailed the local news channel to see if they can do a special investigation. ill post progress because GM SUCKS! i knew i shouldve bought a srt-4 or a WRX.

 

justy an update..... three cobalts broke down last night.... so I"ll be busy today...
THe yellow one pictures above blew out the dipstick and started running like ****...
another yellow one blew out the dipstick and hopefully just went into limp mode
and a red one hitting 4th just went bang and limped it home
I hope it was due to the fact it was the coldest night yet (44 deg) and the cars just weren't adjusted for it.;... 2 of them were heavily modded and tuned... one just got a 3": pulley and 2.5 xtc dp with cat.
and my car is back by the way

 

ok one blew a motor.... ****.,.. these things are dropping like flies

 

damn these cars really suck it seems so many problems, and not anyone really good for fixing the warranties on these cars, and i dont see why they cant warranty the tranny, we pay a pretty penny for these cars and they dont seem like they are built for any abuse at all

 

wtf.

 

Which one blew their motor?

 

oooh oooh ooh.....I got something for you.





I was driving around on I15 and all of a sudden the car starts bucking. Boost still at 16psi but slow as hell!!. Couldn't get over 6500 rpm. As long as I don't go over 4k rpm I was fine. WOT is when it started to suck.

 

just wondering, are most cobalts that broke down modded?

 

goddamn what plugs were those

 

whose engine blew up?

 

no names for now.... but it isn't good.

 

i like how ur handling this paul...let me know if u need any help

 

hopefully if i stops raining today I can get started on this

 

The one's INTENSE gives you with a stage 4 (autilite 3922). They were gapped to .035 but, now all there is....is a gap.


NOTE: If anyone gets INTENSE's packages.....RICHEN IT UP!! (was 14.699)

 

thats pretty bad... was that stoich afr or was that what you were reading on a wideband?

 

Hp Tuners

 

well how did you register the afr? did you use a wideband? cause hp doesn't read afr on its own

 

it says AFR 14.699 somewhere in the fuel settings....wait one I'll screen shot it.

 

yeah... thats not your actual afr.... stock is 14.9 or something like that... you gotta use a wideband to see what your actual afr is.... mine is set to 14.6999 but I actually see (with meth) 11.8 on my wideband

 

you selling yours anytime soon?
