aww its ok man, i actually was in el paso on one of the days i forget so might not have worked out on my part anyway (although it would have been cool to get some grub again) has your bro been expecting to be deployed? that sorta sucks

 

JJ, I filed in febuary lol. Had to mail my federal taxes in. Waited my 6-8 weeks and I get a letter from the IRS stating that my 1040 got messed up some how blah blah blah please resend and wait another 6-8 weeks. Suffice to say that I have a tax payer advocate that I'm dealing with directly now. Government's just being a bitch cause they owe me 9200$

They better freaking hurry their sweet ass time up. I'm behind on the balt payments cause im dumping all the extra cash into the house -_-

 

Whens the party?

 

I got there Saturday at midnight, and left Sunday about 4pm, and yeah he left sunday for afgaystan so he asked me to keep his car for a year, but my wife don't wan't me driving it cause it's not mine I'm not insuring it

hey I also I'm at the point for new tires, so what you guys say, I might get rims if I can find some decent ones for a good price, but for now it's just tires

 

Here ya go, Nal. https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/08-10-ss-turbocharged-general-discussion-152/tires-210627/

Party is when I get my bloody check *stabs things*

 

Hey, I have a question n I thought u guys could help me out... I'm thinkin about buyin a supercharger kit 4 my 2.2 cobalt from this guy from WA and I was wonderin how can I be safe sendin my money n not gettin screwed over by not receiving da kit

 

Use paypal, file a claim if you think your getting ripped off. You should save your money and get a turbo kit IMHO.

 

Ya I rather go wit turbo than supercharger but my car is an auto

 

FYI if you think paypal is safe your kidding urself. Ya its better then cash or money order but paypal isnt the end all awesome. If you do it pay with paypal and use a credit card. paypal may be easier to file the claim but visa is much more effective in terms of actually getting money back then paypal.

ya dont get too behind. i learned that the hard way ask daniel. If it wasnt for him i wouldnt have a cobalt right now

 

I use paypal to pay anything online and pay that with a charge card from walmart, you put money in it and pay with it, that way if it gets stolen it doesn't have money nor can be used for credit, so IMO safest way

 

i was just talking about if he never recieves the product. paypal is pretty secure interms of ur information but when you do a claim what happens is they put a hold on any money the seller has in their account up to the value of the purchase. which is great for big companies selling because they arent going anywhere and they probably have some cash chillin. but your random hillbilly redneck joe withdrew that **** the day he got it in there. so then you deal with 2 weeks of redtape figuring out who wins the claim and everything. assuming the seller is at fault and paypal didnt hold any money they try taking it from whatever sources they have on file. credit card, bank account whatever. but again hillbilly joe spent that **** a long time ago and probably left town. so paypal then reports it to collections who conveniently cant find joe anymore or realistically doesn't even care and buyer is SOL

i have id guess 400 or so of "in process" claims that ive won. the oldest one has been oh 5 years or so but im pretty confident my money is coming back soon. i think they may even pay interest on it

 

thanks 4 da help but i guess that guy sold da kit 2 some other person here in NM

 

oooh that sucks, I would be pissed if my **** was put on hold like that, kinda like my taxes the previous 2 years, I was surprised to see my return in about 2 weeks after I filed

 

ya i was pretty pist when he told me i was all happy but f**k it.. i guess im gonna go 2 Arizona 2 pick up SS front seats 4 my car

 

lol too bad ur car is yellow. If i could get SS tc seats i would drive to santa fe to sell u mine

 

Ya there SS/SC seats but thanks anyways but lil road trip should b fun

 

How does having an automatic affect a turbo kit, 505?? There's a guy on the site that just did a full trans swap for his TC and is now running an auto in his.

Yeah, JJ. I'm trying to at least send SOME money to GM every month for the car. When I talked to the advocate on the phone the first thing she said was "Have they sent you a repo notice or have you gotten an eviction notice?" Told her nope, but it shouldn't go that far either.

 

Well I dnt knw I've heard havin a turbo in an auto u get a lot of boost lag I dnt knw if its true but ya I rather go turbo than supercharger

 

It depends on the size of turbo doesn't matter if its an auto. Bigger turbo more lag.

 

We had some pretty good boost lag on our TC's, cav and I, before we got tuned. Now it spools up SOOO fast. Don't forget. Saturn Sky and the Pontiac Solstice are both auto with the same engine as our TC's.

 

Ok so I should go turbo right? Instead of supercharger

 

turbo should be faster...

 

Ok thanks but should I get da kit from zzp or somewhere else?

 

Check out hahn racecraft.

 

Ya I heard hahn is better but I've looked it up but it says it only works 4 manual trannies
