I went with ZZP for mine. Great quality, Fast shipping, Great Price. Being able to support a Michigan business was also a plus for me.

Check out the one that Modern Performance offers. If they had that out when I bought mine, I would have bought theirs vs Hahn's. Not that the Hahn DP is bad, I love the Hahn DP and exhaust that I have (regardless of the price); but the DP that Modern offers already comes w/ bungs for temp sensors and wideband O2 sensors. For the price it's worth it. And yes you'd look under the Cobalt section since we're the same platform.

If you have an automatic SS, the ZZP catless downpipe will pull the exaust forward about 3/4 of an inch. The exhaust tip goes about 1/4 inch past the fascia. You will have discoloration of the rear fasica if you don't add any thing to the remaining exhaust system. For the manual, it shouldn't change a thing from what I have heard. I plan to cut the exhaust anyway and weld in an inch to make up for the difference. Just have to find a day were it isn't so cold. But that may be a couple of months for me!!! The sound and performance improvement were totally worth it to me, even with having the stock exhaust. I noticed a lot better low end spooling of the turbo. It doesn't feel like much but in the low to mid range the car feels a little faster to respond to go pedal. The sound is also a bit deeper which can turn some heads at 3/4 to WOT and cold starts. But, under normal driving it seems like that the stock downpipe is still in. I have had the ZZP downpipe for about 4 months an I have only experienced one code so far. Quick trip to Autozone erased it. I plan on running an Interceptor gauge anyway, so if a code pops up I can get rid of it ASAP. All catless downpipes WILL throw a code! It just depends on when it happens. I can't comment on other vendor's offerings however. I believe one person said they didn't have to alter their exhaust at all for the auto to retain the stock location. It may have been Hahn's downpipe? You may want to search for that!
