nice kill, but you need to get those tail lights fixed!!!
i hope that was a joke, cause those Super charged cobalts put down more wheel horse than a stock TC has flywheel.

the Eco-tec is a great motor for boost, but i think turbo's are the way to go with 4cyl's as you can see the new SS Cobalts are Turbo'd and with just a Tune, CAI, and new down pipe they can put down 320 wheel horse and run low 13's to high 12's pending traction [wrong wheel drive FTL]

Good Job Mr Google. now if you had read his post correctly and seen he put "hide" as to suggest he was joking you wouldnt have to waste all this time on "theoretical times" for the new cobalts

I did mean T/C instead of TC since there is a slow *** Scion with that badge. There is a pic in my sig to help with the bad acronym on my part though!!

:hide: is a pretty common smiley on a lot of boards, I knew a few would get it....

Looked to me like the balt was jumping everytime and the ss was walking him hard as soon as he got some momentum.

Maybe i'm thinking about another ss. Is the SS in the vid silver or pewter? If thats the pewter ss from newtech than i was told it runs hard for what it has. Looks like your car runs good. I'm glad i was blessed with a good running ls1. It ran good when it was stock too

Yea the Newtech SS runs hard from a dig. My car is cool but of course it could always be better. I do plan on bringing it out to 7th once the weather gets better. So I'll definitley be seeing u around. Keep holding it down for the stock ls1's.

I was nervous going up to it, the guy with it sounded pretty cocky. I heard him pulling into the parking lot we were meeting out and heard his S/C...like I said, im not gonna lie I was nervous I would loose.


Got onto the road and it was LS1 ALLLLLL the way....he then asked for a roll and it was LS1 ALLLLLL the way.....then he said he was thinking about selling his car for a WS6 lol.
