yo memphis. Imma text u in a min.


So far, F3 is a little blahh man. Cars feel numb and they all kinda sound the same....



But mutli and the ranking system for them seems awesome! # of the best races ever i had last night online... Wayy fun.


Text on the way

oh youre just trying to rain on our parade rich cause you a ps3 groupie.

RuSSo-29

Lol ummmmmmmmmmmmm what? I bought a 360 for the 1 reason of playing this game.....


I love Forza.






And no, i'm sure you'll see in the coming days how everyone really feels.


I'm not saying its a bad game, its about on Par with Forza 2, but nothing much more then that.

blackbolt89

Gamespot refers to a "Career bug sometimes lets you use cars that far exceed event restrictions. "

wooohooooo.

HMF313

so, umm, those aren't real cars? lol

blackbolt89

FM3 is decent.

but Rich was right. a lot of the cars sound the same. take for instance the Ford Focus RS, the ******* thing sounds like it has a v12 under the hood.

ScrumpleMuffins

I agree the car sounds are screwed up.....But dude, have you ever heard a new focus rs? Or even the old ones? I think they got that sound right. You'd be surprised. They have one of the most distinct exhaust notes. They sure don't sound like small motors. One of the best sounding motors imo

blackbolt89

i've never actually heard one with good sound quality. it was usually some shitty youtube video or something.

but idk, the RS sounds damn nasty. i LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE the way the M5 sounds.

and my ZR1 powered 'maro is kickass as well.

RuSSo-29

The Focus rs has that Volvo 5 cyl so its not actually a 4 banger....

Sooo, I have a question for all of you cobalt experts out there. My check engine light has been going on and off randomly for the last several months, becoming more frequent the past month or 2 to the point where it's on more than it's off. It's getting to the point where i'd like to find out if it's the same problem over and over, or different things, and see what i need to do. So I just wanted to see if anyone on here has a scanner and would like to please help me? thanks!

oo, and btw Happy Halloween!

ScrumpleMuffins

Reading > you....None of us said it was a 4 banger


And Heather, you can always go to like autozone I believe and get the code checked out for free. It could be something stupid...at least lets hope it is...and if you can't find anywhere/anyone to scan it, I can always scan it for you with my hptuners

Do you still have onstar? call them up and ask fro a vehicle diagnostic and then make them give you the code... If not rob from dumont works for gm so he shoudl be able to help you... im hoping he can flash my cpu to stage 1 when i get it so i dont have to deal with a dealer

blackbolt89

so youre gonna get rid of the trifecta tune? or can you piggyback it on top of the trifecta tune?

ScrumpleMuffins

You can't run 2 tunes at once

Besides, I thought that was Frank with the treifecta

negative, i have HP Tuners tune from BYT**SS**TURBO. its awesome, i do want the stage kit though. probably getting it in the spring. going back to stock for winter

blackbolt89

then whats the point in getting stage one if youre already tuned?

the GM tune won't be as potent as the aftermarket tune, will it?

ScrumpleMuffins

That's what i'm not understanding..........

"I'm going to buy intake, full exhaust, upgraded turbo....But i'm also going to buy restrictor plates that GM makes so my car only makes like 20 hp more with those mods"

haha just playin

It's like the people who bought GM stage 2 for the ss/sc.....then they went out and bought a tune. What the hell is the point in that? I can see if you go with the stuff from GM because you want your warranty intact...But warranties are ***** ****. I'd rather be the one working on my truck than some young punk kid at a dealership who takes my rig for a 35 mile test drive. And I don't mind paying for parts that can be warrantied (as I have done it with the cobalt)

stage one comes with 2.5bar sensors so the computer can read over 23 lbs of boost But to utilize these sensors you need the gm tune which is a completley new OS. And then I will have V over at trifecta work his magic with lots o boost

RuSSo-29

So awesome you blew your Map....

blackbolt89

doesnt vince already have infiniboost? i thought he was claiming 30 psi?

or is that not too safe to run.

RuSSo-29

With stage 2 from GM, dealers were more willing to work on the cars.... and you could always swap back from a tune to stock stage 2.


I never had a single problem with my tune or car besides that gravity problem....

blackbolt89

buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut 2.5 bar = 36 psi

Pics of your refreshened whip?

blackbolt89

lol its just a stock looking LS, lol.

i got a new hood, two new fenders (so no more ugly dent on driver side), and a new fascia.

so just take what my car looked like before and take out the dents on the hood from a tree limb falling, the dented fender, and the massive amounts of rock chips.

buuuut i get it back and theres a bunch of clips missing from the front fascia so its practically hanging forward, i have a P0171 code, and my exhaust fell apart the second night i drove it after getting it back.

i can't win.

you back in 'Merica yet?
