It's alright HHR At least it's an upgrade from the G5, that's for sure. A couple months back, I was trying to trade the G5 in for a used white 2009 G5 GT that had 10K miles on it : Yea... that would have been a waste seeing as it's the same engine. I would have just had better suspension, rear disc brakes, remote start, heated leather seats, sunroof, and the premium sound with sub. I'm glad I waited it out for this.

^ plan on making it this summer

also some guys I race with are opening a speed shop/dyno tune shop here in my town(Tuscumbia, off Hwy 72-Alternate)... don't know what kind of dyno they are going to have but at least I won't have to drive to Huntsville to get some numbers...

though they mostly tune Ford Modular 4.6L V8s and the GM LS Series V8s(Ls1s, Ls2, Ls3s, etc.)

I wouldn't trust them tuning my Cobalt, lol... but they do know their way around v8s, between the 3 guys running it, they've had several boosted V8s that ran like raped apes

Would be nice if they got an awd dyno (hint hint), there are currently no awd dynos in Alabama from Birmingham up to Tenn (that I know of). The last AWD dyno that was in Huntsville got sold to some dyno shop in Colorado.

If I'm wrong someone please let me know because I'm going to need a awd dyno
soon.

no, that is what I am saying, I won't have to go to trackmasters... right now Huntsville is the closest dyno to me, in a couple of weeks, one will be 10 miles from me

don't remind me

I found out Alice in Chains is playing tonight like 3 days ago... can't make it tonight, they are playing Memphis in May tomorrow night as well, I am REALLY going to try to make that but don't see it happening either, had I had more than 2 days notice I could have made something happening...

in July(I think the 18th) Fuel, Seether, Chevelle, Puddle of Mudd and several other bands are playing Huntsville... will definitely make that one

Pm'd you

I saw Seether with Hurt, Breaking Benjamin, and Three Days Grace a couple of years ago, they were really good live

if you guys have never seen Chevelle live, do yourself the favor... hands down the best band i've seen live, well, maybe a tie with Godsmack


and July 18th you got Shinedown, Chevelle, Sevendust, Puddle of Mudd, and 10 years in Huntsville... I also heard Fuel was on the lineup but have saw nothing official

tickets are $40, its on a Sunday

would have to be pretty close to me, I got to go to my parents for a b-day dinner Sunday night(about 7-8ish)... brother turned 29 last Thursday, I turned 25 couple of weeks ago, because I was down at the time from my surgery, they're combining the two...

About time slacker (j/k I know you had some medical bills come up). So what psi and other custom stuff you going for with the tune?
