What was your time for this 1/4? What were your mods on that run?

Well if your hittin 98 mph before you hit the end you almost have to be running boost or something major. a cobalt with your mods would never hit 98 mph in a 1/4 mile. you would have to be running in the 14's. thats a boosted cobalt range

there is also a piggy back system made by jet chip. its called the Jet SCU-2000. its offered for auto tranny's only tho. and i have yet to find someone whom has installed it on a cavi. but andysautosport.com claims it will work for the cavi. and its a heck of a lot cheaper then tuning the ecu. but of coarse you will gain and or unleash power from tuning and all your doing with the jet scu-2000 is removes the top speed limiter and allows you to correct your speedometer and your tach if you make gear ratio changes or change tire size.
