Hey you guys I am in Winnipeg. If your looking to cruise Winnipeg for something to do plan a summer sunday nite for crusing PORTAGE Ave. Bumper to Bumper hot cars. more traffic than rush hour for most of portage ave (runs from the city centre right out to the perimeter highway) lots of car shows including one downtown.

Yeah I look foward to seeing who is out and about in the summer time, maybe see a bunch of people at some car shows. yeah we will have to get together. and talk sometime.


SSNipes I am sure I will hit up Winnepeg(I know I butchered the spelling) I am not sure when though, I know it will be in the spring or summer

Are you planning on running at the track. Have you taken your car to the track at all?
Yes and NO, respectively.

Is there a place to run in the US you two would be going to?

We have Gimili race way but that is a 1 1/2 hours north from my home in Winnipeg.

Well we have a 1/8th mile track right here in Minot at the state fairgrounds. Also I go to Sabin over by fargo to race in the 1/4 when they have they're interstate dragways session going on. You should come down for it sometime.

haven't ran the car at the track, I had it dynoed when I first got the car 203 hp 200 lb but I have a CAI b&G lowering springs and plan on the GM stage 2 upgrade kit for it when it comes out here in Mar.(if it comes out in Mar.) other than that I am still debating on which Exhaust to choose. what do you guys have done??

I am bone stock. I have a K&N cone filter I plan on putting on in summer and may remove the left driving lamp to get air induction. Looking at other plans. stage II for sure and cam gear timing. maybe cams heavier valve springs and then raise the rev limiter. clutch for sure to mostly likely stage II and maybe stage III. Since tranny is out may as well put in LSD with perhaps a lower diff gear ratio like the GM performance ST race team. Other consideration is forged pistons and a nitrous shot. Been reading the GM performance article on the ECOTEC LSJ that pumps up power to 300HP

yeah I would like to get LSD but it seems a lil expensive, Definitly Stage 2 clutch and lighter Flywheel here. but that won't happen til the end of the year or beginning of the next year. u wouldn't know if the Cobalt SS exhaust would fit the Redline do u? I was thinking about the Corsa 3" but they only make it for the SS
 
#12 ·
Isn't the cobalt and the redline the same car basically? Do they have the same motors? Someone enlighten me, I would imagine that alot of cobalt parts that are made will fit the redline.
 
#13 ·
they pretty much are the same car, 90% of the cobalt stuff will fit the redline, but I am not 100% sure if the exhaust are ran the same...suck to buy something and not be able to use it
 
#14 ·
I know your not from Glenburn...maybe the woman in the car with you? I grew up in Glenburn....hadn't been there in forever, so I decided to check it out, and what a coincidence that u headed that way too. Tried stopping in town, but guess u didn't feel like chatting. Maybe some other time, anyways nice car!

personally I think 3" exhaust is a waste for this car unless you plan to go way beyond 300HP. 2.5 inch is a good compromise. GMPP exhaust is 2.25 does a great job on the dyno and sounds great. but I must say I am planning for the 2.5" Magnaflow with a 2.5" High flow converter.
 
#17 ·
yeah, I heard w/ the RL that I have to buy a gasket for the Magnaflow, no biggie gasget is like a couple of dollars from what I hear. I would like to go w/ Corsa, but I donno if it will fit the RL, Fits the SS

I hadn't had the car out for awhile, so I decided to take it for a drive...get the juices flowin again. I just thought it was funny how you went to the same place. I was thinking maybe you and your woman thought I was stalking you guys or something. Yes we have to meet up sometime...I'm busy tonight. I love the SC whine, I want a ride in that hog.
