Ohhhh hell yeah... that thing would probably eat Xero for breakfast

I'm rly rly rly considering putting an M62 on my car... I was thinking M90 but there isn't a lot of room under the hood, so a smaller M62 would work great too. Besides I don't want my transmission to exploderate. I wonder how hard it would be to install... and what parts I would need outside the M62...

I dont think its worth the time IMO or the work! lol

I think putting a Cobalt SS S/C engine in a new pontiac G5 GT would be more fun

Knappy1 must have sold a lot of crack to build his car like that
I've seen his ride on Car D. before I think... or another forum Looks nice though.

I do like how he put his subs in the spare tire area.
I was thinking about doin the same thing so I can still have a trunk.
If he is only running 14's @ 90mph with that SC he's not got it set up right. Hell my GT is faster then that stock! Well , I know it'll get 100mph+ in a quarter mile.


Just ran the SE down to Raytech this morning, I guess they'll run it on a dyno too see what I have been shoving down the trans Free even !
Sure is nice having friends in high places

Ok, i'm goin to check out yank my ride

[Vipey1337]

Cant wait to see what you get Hey wanna hook me up with a dyno run j/k hehe

Looks fast... but my question is why did he have to rice-a-roni it up? Jeez. Keep it plain an simple without all those graphics and body kits...

well I'm in the market for another car to purchase... me and my girl are planning to buy a used econobox car for her and myself as well for when she moves and eventually when i move as well with her. So I may have another car to add to the list...probably a honda or toyota... nothing that we care about just something to get around in with good gas mileage. I'll keep ya guys posted on what we get.

where ya movin to?

I'm lookin at pontiac G5 stuff , payments would be so easy for me to have, and I could save for a SS Supercharged cobalt engine, im trying to find out if its swappable. they both use the ecotec engine line, tryin to think what all would be needed in order for the swap

Cobalt SS = G5 GT engine wise... with the same 5 speed tranny

on second thought....

I'm leaving the country!!... running away far far awayrunaround ... LOL However, I actually am leaving the country in some regards... I'll be moving to Tropical island... San juan, Puerto Rico. Nothing like living on a tropical island all year round ( for about 2 years only) It shall be fun and interesting... I just have to actually learn to speak spanish now...

Forget the G5... I would go all out on the Cobalt SS IMO. I've sat in both and looked at both... but the cobalt just has a better appeal then the G5... maybe a little more money but worth it!

[Vipey1337]

why fwd Get a G8

I'll get a VR4... I think

yaa, but dunno lol, ill have to go look at both the SS non supercharged cobalt and a G5 GT and see which I like better...

I think my 'next' car is going to be my toy... something not as expensive to do 'custom' upgrades like our GA lol... its already breaking my wallet of nothing.

The filter was clogged and the brand new pump I got might of been faulty only pushing 27psi exchanged the pump, they're putting in a new one and are going to call me back after they get a pressure test, hopefully soon... I have a job interview next week!
