New 2008 LS just few questions
Hey all i havent been around for 3 years but now im finally going to get a cobalt!!
Just a few questions that i was wondering..
The people with 2.4 intake, full exhaust and a CAI...
What kind of mpg are you seeing when taking it easy (and then when you drive it hard)..
Plus what kind of difference are you seeing with this?
Also just a quick question about Cold start... Thats when you wake up, get in the car, start up and leave correct?? No waiting to warm up or anything..
I just wanted to ask a few questions because i dont plan on making this a race car.. I do like to mess around tho.. I cant leave nothing 100% stock... my first upgrade will be the CAI just because i hear it will improve mpg.. My main concern is staying above 32 mpg on highway because that is what 80% of my driving is..
Thanks in advance..

yeah he's right....but it will up your gas mileage quite a bit if you take it easy....I went from here in vegas to prescott, AZ which is 272 miles @85mph and it took me half a tank....or just over 6.5 gallons.....and thats great for that speed....and all I have is CAI too......comes out to be about 40+/- mpg.
BTW get the one off JDMParts or Ebay....its 30$ and does considerably the same thing as the 210$+ ones, but you'll have to put a little elbow grease into cleaning the welds and filing the MAF opening a little more...but alltogether worth the 180$ save....not to mention it sounds better.....
