Just bought a 06 cobalt ss supercharged and it needs to be tuned. Has alot of mods to the engine and has trouble idling sometimes. Can anyone help with where I should take it to in Cincy?

Don't know exactlly! The guy I bought it off of gave me a list of things that are done to the car but nothing about any type of tune.
The car runs great! When you come to a stop the car will idle up and down up and down and sometimes it will just stall on me. Sometimes you will push the clutch in and it will idle down and idle fine! I can also smell the exaust when sitting still or come to a stop. it is burning rich!

I would definately talk to tom. I live in the dayton area and met him for the first time monday, car needed scanned and he was definately a very knowledgable guy about these cars, I will be having him do a tune on my car here sometime soon hopefully.

Stated digging around the engine last night. Pulled the spark plugs and the tips were white and the was gaped all different. .035 to .045. Got them changed out. cleaned the throtle body. the air filter was just nasty, got it cleaned out and now it idols like a new car.
Amazing what a little love does to a car. I am still going to have it tuned or make sure it is tuned right though.
