I drive an 04 Redline, and joined in 06. Don't really post too much on here, though.

Yeah, I'm in it for the long haul. I hear you on heavy mods, I am not NEARLY as deep in as you were. It's got a TVS. I let Wes tinker with it for a year or two. Now it has some issues. I'll probably back it off a little bit. I have a daily driver so the Balt can finally be a fun car.

I guess I'm considered an old-timer, I only come on when I have an issue though... about once a year, even though I never posted much anyways.

Glad you kept the Cobalt man. And I know what you mean about the site making you angry lol. It's only gotten worse unfortunately. Guys like you don't even get on anymore and yall made a lot of strides for the community.

it's so dissappointing to see the direction people have taken this car.
All that time and money I (and others) put into this thing to show it's potential, and all I see are threads on slamming the car to the ground, making it nearly undriveable, stock power, and just about no one making parts still. (well cept for one company that I will not deal with)
hell I still was holding the stock m62 record until recently and I did that back in 06. hell look at how few still 400+whp cars there are, when it's litterally a joke to make that kind of power.
Ugh what can I say, I still work on the ones willing to push the envelope, other than that I'm ghost.

Yeah. I really want to get a SS whether it be SC or TC. Kinda want the SC because it's cheaper and I'd like to see what I could do with the supercharger cause I have a couple things in mind. But yeah you and area come off the top of my mind and you all made good power back then and no one else does it now. But I guess that's what you get when people don't care about their car and expect everything to run 100% all the time but they abuse it. If some people would look up the older threads like your turbo one and area's tvs one then they could probably learn a thing or two. I almost bought a SS/SC about two years ago but I waited too long and by the time I was going to buy it it was already sold. But I will get one eventually lol.

My car has had a couple rough patches since I got it in 06 but all my issues have been worked out and lately it feels like its brand new.

I mainly try to post helpful stuff and avoid the e-thugs/know-it-alls whenever possible.

trying to set things up here and there @once a month when I get time to get down to the island, would have this friday, but someone blew up their cylinder head, and I have to rebuild it early saturday morning.
The cobalt crew just ain't what it used to be, it's actually quite depressing.

Preach on! I have always wondered that.

I just saw a hellafukd R32 the other day. I wanted to cry. I just told myself maybe they just badged it up to look like one. Surely someone wouldn't destroy an R32 with that garbage.

It's the same thing as people putting "off road" kits on $50k+ luxury trucks and SUVs then getting offended when people ask them about going off road. "Do you know how much I PAID for this thing?!?!?!?!?!?!"

Do you really want them being able to go faster so that when their **** breaks they're just propelling themselves even faster into someone else?
