Get done with those free mods?

Im adding my header and cut-out soon. Hopefully it'll cancel yours out

 

d1sclaimer do u think a completely stock 06 s2k could beat a full bolt on stage 2 SS/SC?

 

i know i wont touch 12's without some drag radials, ive already got prothane bushings and looking to switch to the rotated mounts.

hatrickstu, care to elaborate?

 

IMHO it'd be a drivers race with the s2k's rwd advantage up until the end of the quarter mile. That is, unless the Cobalt owner can really launch his car, has DRs, or an even smaller pulley.

Most s2k's stock run about 13.8-14.0 if they get about a 2.0 0-60 foot time(which is considered about the best you can do stock with stock tires). They trap 99-101 stock. Years don't matter too much with s2000's since 00-03 and 04-09's have their tradeoffs which make it about even.

After the 1/4 mile, the Cobalt should start pulling up top.

Another thing is, is that half of the s2k guys can't drive worth ****. Its a hard car to launch. I usually launch at 6-7k and feather the clutch.

 

Here is a SS/SC with just an intake VS a stock S2000...I would say no

with two capable drivers, from a roll. the s2k will go down.

 

well i had 236whp/211twq b4 i got my full exhaust. And most stock s2ks put down 190-200whp/140-150wtq. we would run a 40roll and a dig. im almost a 100% sure i will absolutely destroy him from a roll but idk about from a dig.

hes not a very good driver (he thinks power shifting helps him gain power) and i'd say im now a good driver

 

on what

well said.

people see RWD and assume its going to tear out of the hole. s2k's are not easy cars to launch (lack or torkles will do that) thus you have to launch them HIGH in the rpm to get them to move at all.

 

Its a Honda Too high for torque. I put down 198.8whp and 131wtq down stock on a mustang dyno

 

ill be rebuilding the the engine je pistons, eagle rods, im still looking into what the other components im getting, 3 in exhaust, stage 3 clutch, custom tune

 

you said some just dont get it. im just curious to what you mean.

 

the typical cobalt owner assumes the more power the better. im done trying to help people see the light on fast track times

 

Stu u know alot about driving. my friend seems to think double clutching is when u leaving ur foot on the gas as u shift. And wat i have learned is that is a downshifting technique right?
but isnt speed shifting/powershifting when u leave ur foot on the gas as u shift?

 

its not necessarily more power and i understand that. power means nothing if you cant hook up. how well does your ice box work? i've been up and down on this idea.

 

your friend is a tard. not lifting your foot off the throttle while you shift is called powershifting.

very well. better than en extra heat exchanger...

 

LMAO thank you i keep tryin to tell him that but he wont accept me being right.

 

there are definately some dreamers in here....I'm looking for mid 13's...2.8, 60's, tune, supporting mods, tractions mods...the usual and right setup

 

sounds realistic to me

 

wat tires do u recommend? i want good all around tires that last a decent amount of time and low road noise

 

lets keep this on topic. i use kumho ecsta spt's

 

that is on topic cuz i need to find the street tires that are gonna get me my 13.8-13.9

 

i dont know then, i dont race in street tires.

 

I ran a 13.6 on the stockers...

 

sticky street tires that last long with low road noise.... good luck on that one...I'm thinking potenza re01's or dunlop direzza z1's

yeah...dont want to aim to high..... but I'd be content with that.

 

yeah.... was that a 2.0L or a 2.2L s2k cause depenging on what kind it makes a HUGE diff.
