Well, when the track is already at 5800ft ASL, **** gets out of hand quickly with the DA.

Launch control is junk. I've cut some of the worst 60fts ever using it. I just leave around 1500-2000 on the street and roll into the throttle. My 1st gear boost is limited at ~15psi. It works well on drag radials at the track, but on street tires on the street it just blows the tires off.

You can NEVER use it at the track....too sticky. I ran a 2.6 the only time i used it but that was my 107 trap

In the street i kinda like it.

I havnt limited boost yet
We aint ****** around and my tires dont like me.
They say bald is beautiful.

I wish this site had a Cobalt SS section, cause I have so many question for you kids because of how awesome the car is. I might shoot you guys a few PM's.

1. Is the car reliable? Any known issues at all? Kinda like the weak rear end of the f-body? Anybody on the cobaltss.net forums with high millage cars? Does the transmission/clutch/turbos all stand up well over time, that is if their not too much abused?

2. From what I've seen the interior for a 2008+ car is FAR from impressive, but obviously light years above f-body(not a huge accomplishment), is it a comfy interior, do stuff fall apart after a while? Is the stereo half decent? Seats supportive over time without back aches?

3. How's the ride comfort over not-perfect pavements? You'll feel everything or does it have a relatively comfy suspension?

4. How expensive are the breaks to replace or get maintained? Considering they are Brembos.... nice... but costly

5. I've heard it's very easy/cheap to get these cars into 330whp range, what trap/quarter mile times will that be then? Do you have to beef up the transmission or the turbos at all then after the mods?

I guess your track times on a good DA would be way better...especially the way youre coming back at the 400rwhp Saleen, and the way youre hanging with a 03' 600!!!!!!

What is your hp range? has to be somewhere 350+rwhp.

1. Realiable if not beaten on. Intercooler is a weak spot( plastic end-caps) and if modded fairly well the heads become a issue.

2. Interior is alright. The bezel for the sunroof switch WHILE fall off. Stock system is nice 7 speaker with 10" sub in the trunk. Upgraded headunit and your good.

3.It had a fully tuned suspension from factory(years on the Ring) so by no means does it ride like a caddy. You will feel bumps and if u go with springs it will only be worse.

4. Brakes aren't bad. I just upgraded to drilled/slotted and keep the Brembos for $215.

5. I'm in the HP range and I'm going to the track this Friday so I'll let ya know but usually around 12.8-13.5 depending on what tune and tire set-up. You can see almost 400whp on a stock turbo if I remember correctly. I would upgrade the transmission if you plan to run bigger turbo or go over 400whp.
