I thought about getting low.... lol, but meh, I like to drive the car, and going low will keep me from doing that, + I still haven't tuned the car and I promised Cav I was going to so that will be first (once my sister in law pays me back)

cosmetics are next, almost done with my mods then lowering is for sure in the works. I thing the spoiler will be the first thing.


May I have you attention please! I will be getting A rematch tonight. He goes by the name "Chassed". If you guys don't know the history he was my fist call out I did after getting tuned. Yes I lost to him but that was before the catless DP and the E85. At the time he had A 2000 Camaro with A cam, ls6intake ,exhaust and I sure some other goodies but anyways it was A 12 sec. camaro. Now he has A 02 C5 Corvette with an intake. He wants to run before he gets his longtube headers. My car has been giving me issues this week with my MAF sonsor an some limp mode issued so hopefully she holds toghter for me toinght and lays the d--k down and gets er done

also...does anybody know where, on a 2.2L, where the vaccuum line is? or it may be something like that...i need to hook up the wastegate to that.....is it on the engine itself? or will i have to drill a hole into the intake manifold??

day 2 of turbo build.....got the intercooler, turbo manifold, and turbo installed.....now just doing alot of piping and fabbing and pretty soon when i get the money i wanna convert everything to mandrel bending =).....so far not really any issues, just don't like how the pipes coming off the intercooler sag because of the paneling of the cobalt lol and my mechanic is hooking me up with a couple surprises...one of which i know about and i'm pretty sure none of you other cobalt guys have it....the other i'm not sure but it's supposed to be "sooper" according to him lol

I wouldn't say I have the hook up, I just take it into reliable. Shouldn't take that long to do.

Dvs, it'd be safer to stab yourself in the face than to let reliable touch your car.
