Dude at that rate I'll be S/C'ed dyno tuned and have time slips, and I don't even have a S/C kit yet but I'm going with the ZZP kits they have using the cobalt M62.

Well good for you... 
I'm in no rush... I still haven't even gotten my 2.5" cat-back installed. I'm finally scheduled to have it done on the 13th, which was supposed to be done already in March.
But yeah its looking like August when I'll have enough time and everything together to install my kit. I'm mainly focused on the trip to Michigan this summer, so the kit can wait... |

Damn, I just realized the logistics of getting to that side of town by 7:30 from where you are! I don't know if taking C470 would be worth it......
But that install should be routine for Hank, I think he mapped out the SLP when he took it off my car to install the custom stuff. Have you already been over to his shop? |

Yeah I have to leave my house by 6:00, he said it'll take all day. I would love to see your supercharged beast...
I've already been to the shop, back when I got an estimate. |

Yeah, too bad there's no time to do before and after scans with HPTuners, that would be interesting, but you'll pick up a few more horses for sure. If you feel like dropping by send a pm, I'm not far from I25 off 92nd. "The beast" is up and running, but got some drivability issues. Nothing wrong at WOT, though.
I don't think it would get stranded  |

So I got the magnaflows installed today at Hanksville, he did a really good job. I'm very satisfied.
I will post up pics and a video tomorrow since its dark out here. Hank took some pictures on the lift that he will e-mail to me that I will also post up.
Also stopped by Greg's (AleroB888) today after the install, and want to thank him again for showing me his Alero and taking me for a spin in it, he really put a lot of effort into it and it shows...
Just a picture for proof lol and a little glimpse of my muffler and tip...

I have to say, I'm more impressed with your car, that 5-speed really hauls! I wish I could have bought that car . And the tune even looks great, as far as I was able to read it, fuel trims almost perfect, and locking at zero at WOT.
Makes me want to buy wheels... |

Reading that data off of HP Tuners for my car was really interesting to look at, this will give me something to compare to once I get the S/C kit installed and tuned. |

They can replicate the bends, they usually keep them on file. Then in the computer and whamo bamo, in house computerized mandrel bender does the work, Hanksville is really a quality business.... |
