Hatch - Race the damn thing.

TL - Sell the damn thing.

CBR - I'm actually fairly happy with it as is. Just want to clean it up a little bit over the winter.

I would like to have tried to get my cobalt into the mid to high 11's but with no tranny support I may be looking to sell and get into something different.

What are you looking at getting?

ourbloodykisses 11-26-2010 06:45 PM

lowest em2 of all time. static driven.

TalonTsi97 11-26-2010 06:55 PM

I want to get into a magazine one day but not shooting for that with the talon as of now.
I just want the car running again on my budget, the way I want it done, with the work being done by myself with help from close friends and family.
Goal is to break 500whp just to say i did and with the setup i'm going with it should be a problem. If a e85 station ever pops up locally i'll make the switch and turn up the boost.

JankyS13 11-26-2010 07:10 PM

my goal is simple, get it back on the road legally lol

mckpat03 11-26-2010 07:15 PM

For me it's all personal satisfaction. You can never have too much HP either, haha.

Higu 11-26-2010 07:24 PM

Legitimate rally car with ability to keep pace with AWD and 4x4 vehicles, down drivable non asphalt paths.
