SloBalt's LSJ
So I have finally finished modding my car for now. A lot of people including myself wanted to start a thread showing the various stages of my Balt. So I have compiled a bunch of pictures and I will list my mods for all of you to see:
Vehicle is a 2007 Chevrolet Cobalt SS Supercharged, leather seats, 6CD changer with XM radio. Premium package, only option missing is the Sunroof (which owners of have problems with them leaking).
All mods listed from first install to last:
Eibach Sportline lowering springs
Eibach Sportline front and rear Swaybars
Magnaflow Catback exhaust 2.5"
All badges removed except SS symbols, spoiler delete
GM performance longer studs
1/2" spacers
DC Sports front strut mount
Halo LED with projectors front head lights
Low gloss black powdercoated original 18" wheels
Goodridge Steel Braided Brake lines (front and rear)
Koni 3 way adjustable Rear Shocks
AEM Cold Air Intake
DC Sports 4-1 Headers
Prothane motor and trans mount
Centric Power Slot front and rear rotors
Hawk HPS+ front and rear brake pads
Pics will be posted, enjoy!

I waited and did some performance research and was told that free flowing mods benefit the LSJ enough so I got the AEM CAI and the DC sport headers:
So just with the CAI and the catback, no headers at the time, this is my dyno sheet:

Here are the recent modifications that I have done, along with a glimpse of the Goodridge steel braided lines and maybe a slight view of the Koni rear shocks:

When more money permits and if I decide to keep it after next year, more mods will come. Next considering is pulley, and if needed (according to ZZP Performance, black top fuel rails do not need tune vs green top fuel rails do, along with injectors to safely run the smaller pulley), modify the exhaust to come under my door, and get an aftermarket low rise spoiler.

And a couple of me against my buddy's '74 Datsun 260z RB25 big turbo swap (14psi):

In these two videos, he had an issue with his turbo piping so he was not boosting anything over 6psi:
