Wish I could have left two thumbs up. Great ideaInstalled a "glove compartment" tonight. I bought a back pack, cut a metal sheet that fits the inside for something to rivet to. I then riveted it to the footwell cover. I also made another sheet of metal that fits in the bottom of the back pack to keep it flat instead of drooping down when it gets full of junk. It tucks away nicely and is not in the way of the passenger's feet.

On the street, launching on concrete.Did these numbers come from a drag on the street or a track?
I bought my cobalt with the tune already done to it. I know very little about trifecta other than what I have read online. I need to get in contact with them to see if they can tame the throttle response down to eliminate the lurching in first and second gear. I hear that once they tune your car, the ecm is locked down and cannot be tuned by other sources like HP Tuners. So be aware of that.Very cool stuff. These things will hook on the launch no matter where you are at! Was it remotely tuned by trifecta? How much did it cost you? Mine is still currently running stock tune. where I can feel it the most is in 2nd gear the ecm really pulls power at the bottom of 2nd, probably designed to help the FWD cobalts hook better.
boom!! very nice, thanks for sharing.Saturday was dyno day at a local shop. Ok, let's see what this thing makes!

This is a SS/TC motor with a trifecta 23psi tune on 91 octane. I also wanted to share my latest run on the DragRacer app. Take it for what it's worth. I have no idea if it is accurate, but I have no other way of testing my Goblin.

Not to jump in. But I say go extended. I have a standard length and I am cramped on longer drives at 6'0". I sat in a extended this weekend oh what a difference much more comfortable for meTim, great build.
Can I ask how tall you are? I'm thinking about getting a frame just like yours Track, Easy Entry, Extended. Only wavering on standard vs. extended. I'm 6' and a bigger build so thinking the extended is the way to go.
I am 6'3" 300 lbs and I fit in the extended well. It just fits really comfortably. I tried fitting in the non-extended, and it was comical how much I didn't fit in it.Tim, great build.

I am 6'-1" tall, 220lbs, muscular build. I have the standard length frame, and am glad I went that route. I have my NRG seat all the way back, and the pedal placement is great. If I were any further back it would not work so well.Tim, great build.

OK, I'm going to call myself out. This DragRacer app is complete bulls#!T!!! When I went out and ran my car the other day, it was consistently getting 0-60 times of 2.9 seconds. Tonight I go out, and as hard as I try, with perfect shifts, 3.5 seconds is the best I can muster. I'm pretty sure this app has good days and bad days. Sorry for the misinformation. I guess I need to start saving for more horsepower if I want sub 3 second 0-60 times.Saturday was dyno day at a local shop. Ok, let's see what this thing makes!

All GPS based information. I can watch my gps on the torque app be sitting still in neutral with the brake on bounce between 0-4mph. On my go pro I watched it jump 15mph in a split second. None of them are completely accurate. But are a decent ballpark time.OK, I'm going to call myself out. This DragRacer app is complete bulls#!T!!!
