Sure the pulling harder wasn't just a noise increase?

You need to plan along the lines of 2.4 manifold, removing your oil cap spacer and securing that coolant pipe so it doesnt flop around.

Gotcha, I knew about the "check your fuses" as a reply for everything, but never saw it used that way. LMAO

Maybe Ill take a pick of mine. I cut two little rubber squares to put on the fuel rail, then lined up the coolant clamps so they rested on the fuel rail, then used some black zipties to secure it to the fuel rail. Looks better than factory.

I would agree that the throttle response is greatly improved with a SRI, mine is very notcable over other cobalts that I have driven that are stock.

As for pulling harder, I rarly ever get above 4,000 anyway, so don't really know, but is sure does make more noise...

Clean your throttle body. Bet that is more than likely a huge factor in why your car feels like that....
