just some bolt ons.
intake
downpipe
install my wastegate and tune to 16.5 psi
maybe a new muffler set up to make it a true 3 inch (if not ill do this next spring)
switching to a softer spring than the ones i have on the car now
and some other random lil stuff like break pads, catch can, check valve, yada yada yada
from what other guys on the forums are pushing with similar mods ill be in the 300 whp and 320-330 wtq range by the end of the summer, and if i learn how to launch the car good enough ill be hitting 13.6's all day....then its a matter of how much further i wanna take this car...350 whp is easily attainable..just not sure if its worth spending the money to me or not tho.

Hey. Sorry to burst in here, but I just picked up the new 2010 Cobalt SS/TC. I was wondering what you guys use for winter's and what rims you use (if you use smaller than 18's)? Since it's new, it's all stock for the moment.
Thanks for the help guys.

No worries, welcome. The problem you will encounter is the Brembos. Blizzacks are known to be a good tire and thats what I'm using this year. For rims (if you have the extra money) I would buy a set of Ion Redline rims (fits over calipers) or pick up a cheap set of the 2005-2007 Cobalt SS in either 17in or 18in sizes. Though, these will require a spacer to fit over the Brembos in the front.
Where you located at?

Blizzaks on these cars make winter seem like summer driving. I would find a set of 17'' wheels. Means cheaper Blizzaks and you'll save money with 17's over 18's after a few winters.
