OP, nice kill! Thos Cobalts look like they can run with some mods. Out of curiosity, how much torque does your Cobalt make? Just wondeing if you went from a dig against an LS1, how well would you do. A bolt on LS1 make a good amount of torque.

Not well from a dig, even with launch control. FWD + 235/18s = dig fail.

nice kill man. i just traded a 08 caliber srt-4 in for my GTO. 300whp/302wtq on 15psi, it was on 20psi, meth, and larger injectors right before i traded it so bout 350whp/340-360wtq. i ran a couple ss/tc cobalts when it wasnt as modded. one was on a 22psi trifecta tun which put a couple cars on me, and the other was gms1 which i put a car or so on.

sweet cars, next time get vids!

Not when running with 26 PSI I also trapped 106 in the 1/4 mile. Not much slower than some modded balts.

I should have gone with them too. Someone HP Tuned mine and I blew it up. Lucky the dealer warrantied the damage but I had to remove all aftermarket parts. I since sold it all except the Stage Kit but it's still running 26 PSI. I think it has a bad regulator.

I'm sure those turbo 'balts surprise a LOT of people!

Hey man an HHR panel turbo SS would be a pretty sweet daily driver if it was built!

You guys are lucky to find any action. Best I can find was a guy in a v6 firebird with the most awful sounding exhaust I've ever heard. Tips were shinny though. Guy was making a racket driving around like an *** and when i caught up to him at a light he wouldn't even look over. He was driving miss daisy from then on out. When we could line em up at a light he turned on the highway. I couldn't egg him on to save my soul. Goddamn kids with their backward hats and hip hop music.
