mkulrey, i was talking to hahn after you signed off aim, and they told me as long as the b and m shiftplus gives me full line pressure while not under wot i should be fine.. they said they never used one before and dont have experience from it, but otherwise i should be fine like you said.. also i called aem, they are devoloping the harness for the aem, and it should be done within the next few months.. looks to be priced around 400 for the harness as all the other ones are.. also when i called b and m to confirm the line pressure, they said stage 2 (shiftplus) does give full pressure.. they said tho on there list of supported cars and they never tested the cobalt.. this was from there main tech i was talking to,... but from what everyone says i should be fine.. also hahns downpipe is 2.75 and the exhaust is 3.0 and he quoted me a price that was perfect for me.. so i must start buying piece by piece..
when do you get the downpipe btw?? or did you already get it...
are you getting it dynoed after done..
also i found out as long as the my car with aem keeps the stock 14:1 AFR i will not throw emission codes and i wont fail emissions in my state.. from what i gather, the aem box isnt going to fail emissions, just the afr, but am told by people to hide the box anyway.. i found the aem unit for $330..
i wonder what your car is going to hit on the dyno if you get one..
