hey was anyone out at the berlin turnpike tonight? There were a SHITLOAD of cars that met up in the Bob's clothing store parking lot. I saw a few other cobalts hanging out down there and was wondering if anyone from on here happening to be there. At it's peak there was probably a solid 120-150 cars down there. The cops eventually broke it up, but it was still pretty sweet. **** I even got to run a hooked up STI later that night running 21psi and a whole bunch of goodies (first time I ran an STI). It was a really good race but I pulled it off each of the 3 races. 45 roll, 50 roll, and then a 60 roll. Didn't mean to turn this into a war story, but it was a good time all round

I know a guy who has HPtuners, but you would need a tune to have him install he doesn't really do custom tuning. Have you checked out SMG motor sports in mass? I went to there dyno day, cool guys and they specialize in cobalts.

I was thinking Saturday night around 9ish if that works for everyone. Weather is supposed to be pretty decent. If the turn out is anything like last weekend it should be pretty sick. **** even if only 10 people show up it will be nice to meet some other Cobalt/G5/Ion owners in the area. Last time we met up in Bob's clothing store parking lot, which is right behing Burger King. If not there, then maybe behind Taco Bell.

Now we all know who i would reccomend, but that aside, although out of vince, jannetty, and SMG all of them are reputable so youll be ok, but dont always go for cheaper price, look at overall what that shop or persons rep is etc etc. But out of Jannetty, vince, and SMG youll be good in either one of those three

Personally I would hit up either Trifecta, SMG or even J&M motorsports right there in Manchester. Mike at J&M is great to work with and he really knows his **** in and out. That is were I go for all my dyno pulls and all that fun stuff. Plus he's right there in town for you

Thanks for all the replies. My first tune was at J&M actually, and I was happy with the outcome, just not the price or service (long story). Vince, I would be willing to give it a shot for a fair price. Send me a pm.
