Cobalt sc stage 2 vs 08 civic si

My buddy of mine wants to race my cobalt sc stage 2 with long tube header, and cai. He has no doubt in his mind he is going to beat me. Any thoughts on this? He only has a cai, and skunk2 cat back. Stock for stock the SC is faster so any reason why he is so confident in him winning? Lol

This is why people hate on the Cobalt. You sound like a massive douchbag. I was at the track this weekend and an ALL MOTOR B18C-GSR in an EF hatchback on slicks did a 12.0 with a blown headgasket. It usually pulls 11.50's. I have yet to see an ALL MOTOR Cobalt do that.

I'm not bias either but this forum/group is full of fanboys. WOW!

Yes, My Civic is slow and I don't care that it's slow. Parts are cheap, it's pretty dang reliable, and it's fantastic on fuel. Guess I'm that partial percent that doesn't think the car is fast.

i wouldn't get so butt hurt over what mr bill said, there are fast civics with lots of work and time put into them. most civic you see on the road are ratbagged piles of crap pushing 100-150whp on a good day by some kid looking to race anything on four wheels. that's my humble opinion so take it with a grain of salt.

There was a guy with a 2008 Si I was talking to yesterday and he honestly believed with just a cat back he could take a stock 2013 WRX, I just didn't argue but made jokes about it later in the night, such as them actually racing. The other guy I was with agreed he didn't know what he was talking about.

with the bolt on's I have I tried researching what people dynoed and what the stage 2 gives you for whp and everyone/dyno numbers show all different. I see stick sc pushing 224whp and I see stage 2 with 224hp and all have different numbers so it's confusing

I beat a gensis 2.0t in my cobalt 2.4 NA and a rx8 so I'm excited to race people in my SC! I'll be going stage 3 dyno and tune for next summer.

Then go for it, hope you have some good tires, that would be hilarious if you have a set of slicks.

I had the dealer slap on some new tires so it's as good as it gets! Hahaha plus I'll be running 94 octane. Best I've seen out here in Winnipeg. Usually premium is 91
