Default Cobalt SS in the 11's?

What would it take to get the Cobalt SS in the 11's? I plan to daily drive this car every day. But I want to be able to pull up to a c6 zo6 and beat it. Ive looked at some sites and I really cant find any parts for it. I was wondering if anyone here would know where to look and if they have any suggestions on the best way to get to my goals. This would be the 1st time I build a non ls1 type motor so this is new to me. If anyone has any info that would help it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

itll take a lot to beat a C6 Z06 with that thing...especially if you have a kickass driver in the Z. there is one guy that got one to run a 10.85 on DR's but good luck!

bolt ons, smaller pulley,tuning, weight reduction and 100 shot of nitrous. If you dont win you will have a hell of a finish.

What a waste, even if you win you still are driving a cobalt and hes driving a vette.

The cobaly most likely wont stay together very long running that fast anyway.

"You can take a piece of **** and make it fast, but then all you'll have is a fast piece of ****." As per Humanoid.

So true.

Pay him to let you win and get it on video and post it on the Internet, you will feel like a true champ without spending a lot of $$. And all of the ricers in the 4banger world will admire you.

Sale the car and get a real care and call it Cobolt SS. That is the easiest way to get it in the 11's.
