As has been stated numerous, numerous times by the suspension gurus on here, these cookie cutter coilovers really don't improve your suspension like you think. It stiffens it up and you feel it, and then the psychological effects of "omg I have a stiff suspension" kicks in and you think you have some new tracking beast. Doesn't work like that

Its not the stiffness i was referring to, or even the fact that they are "cookie cutters" but they are adjustable, at the least camber wise, you MOST CERTAINLY will be able to dial in better handling than the stock cobalt suspension. I drove one, and the suspension is awesome, but my si still ate turns better, not because it felt that way, because it was adjusted, and i could have even dialed them in more had tire conservation not been on my mind. not to mention, the stock si suspension, or even hfp's are pretty nice anyways, coilovers are just a huge plus, and im not talking about tein basics or skunk2 base coilovers.
Call me a fanboy but last time i checked, honda owns chevy in the "tuner" world, i wonder why cobalt hasnt sold half as many cars as honda, lameness.
