It's fun to pop in and be needlessly angry.

I apologize, I got crazy when I see the word "methanol" used...spent way too much time on EvoM and around the Evo crowd, watching way too many builds where they wouldn't do necessary work...and end up destroying motors. Facepalm. I'm away from that crowd now, too much ego and frustration.

On a calm note, glad to see you having fun, Rich.

no worries
Just so ya'll don't think i'm nutz... car only has a CAI.
346hp
426tq
Turbo charged
The cars did come with an optional LSD which helps, but yes that much HP on any light FWD car is kinda pointless.

Saw the video of the Cobalt SS, see the CAI. Video does not explain much or proof. He must have increased boost over stock and re-tuned electronically somehow. Different injectors? Spark? Not sure how tranny or pistons will take the extra load.
However, anything is possible. Mucking continues!
