Halos are nothing but 2 LED's bulbs shining through a circular piece of plastic. Thus making your "Angel Eye".

They serve no purpose but looks and in IMO are cheap. I had a set and disconnected them because they got annoying.

HID's on the other hand are awesomesos. If used in a proper headlight housing. I do not reccomend using HID's in a stock headlight housing. Causes too much glare.

HID's belong in a projector housing or in reflector housings designed for HID's.

You can't buy aftermarket "HID reflector housings".

The only thing you can do with the Cobalt is buy aftermarket projectors or retrofits.

Retrofits are the best route but they cost $500+. The aftermarket projectors that are sold are ok. But the light output isn't that of a true projector(BMW, mercedes-benz etc)

So you're pretty much stuck with the Cobalt.

Plus, none of those other headlights fit as well as the stock headlights. And trust me, the projectors and HID's thing gets old. I'm sticking with what came from the factory.

Dude, I keep meaning to send you braulio's scan I did.

Also, I gotta forward you an email that RDfabs sent me of the turbo manifold.

They got my email too late so it's coming to my house.

BTW, Braulio's AFR's are mid 11's now.

But his PE is late.

wtf.

Everybody leaves. Forget you all then.

His power enrichment his at like 4500(or about 15 psi)

Mine would come in at at 5psi or 3 or so grand. iunno. His car runs nice. AFR's are good. He just needs more timing. I can feel the difference.
