Finally going to a local track sunday. I have no clue what I will run. I'm guessing 15's, but since it's my first time, I won't really be surprised if I get a 16 the first run, heh.

Anyways, I'll update this when I'm back sunday at about 2 pm central.

 

if its an auto i highly doubt u be seeing 15's, u dont have many mods done to that.

there was a stock 5 speed ls at the track tonight ran 16.8

 

You're going to be in the mid 16's

Hell, last time I went to the track I was running low 17's on motor.

 

If I run a 17 I'm going to put it into the wall.

We will see. But, if I'm still running 16's all day, I'm so finding another project car.

 

I have full bolt-ons and a custom tune and i'm in the 17's.

I've also had this car for 4 years and my fastest motor pass ever was a 16.40, I'm telling you that you'll never see 15s on motor alone.

 

you suck at driving then if your in the 17's with boltons. robhole has a 2.2 with boltons and a tune and his first time at a track ran a 16.08 and that was with a 2.5 60 foot time.

his was a 5 speed not an auto but an auto with a proper tune, full boltons and a shift kit can easily be a low 16 second car.

put a 50 shot of nitrous on it, that put it into the 15's very easily

 

We're talking about automatics.

And please don't talk **** about what you don't know anything about.

Yes, my car went 17.35 @ 80mph on motor.

5 minutes later I went 14.50 @ 96mph with 2 pounds left in a 10 pound bottle, so I don't want to hear ****.

For comparison there was an SS/SC at the track with a 2.6 inch pulley and his best pass was 14.58, and a stage 2 redline was going ~15 flat

 

What's your track like? I don't see how any cobalt can be in the 17's without just a terrible launch or something like that. Anyways, I'm going with a buddy of mine and he's bringing his stock 3000gt. Supposed to run 15's but most places say 16's.

I'll post tomorrow, hopefully I won't get laughed at.

 

It's not a loss of traction or terrible launch. I know how to launch my car.

I also have 225/50/16's on the front, at 28 psi, so it wasn't traction either.

 

I was running mid to high 16's in my totally stock 5 speed 2.2. You should be there or a little better with the few mods you got.

 

what dont i know hack, you came out and said ur car ran 17's with full boltons with a tune, if you feel that logical for every car to do that with simlar setups, then we will see who doesnt know what they are talking about by today, hell read the 1/4mile list sticky, theres auto in there, no 17's and less mods then you. Oh and i can throw a bottle in my car and run 14's who cares?

He be posting his results today

 

gunna post those times or what?

 

Hack wasn't your 17 sec run due to the fact that your car was tuned for nitrous? I thought you said in one of your threads that the ignition was retarted for nitous through Trifecta? I don't see him running anything higher than 16 sec unless he totally screws up the launch. Where the time slips at?

 

I'm telling you that you a substaintial amount of mods to break out of the 16s with an automatic 2.2

I would be absolutely dumbfounded to see any auto 2.2 break out of the 16's with only bolt-ons and full trim

 

Lol So glad i waited for a 5 speed. I couldnt hit 16 if i tried. **** with a "PERFECT" launch i should be in 14.9 range. lol. I ran 15.012 with a 2.2 or 2.3 60'.

WAIT IM WRONG! i did run pretty bad this one time. I missed second gear and just coasted to the finish, 20 second pass at 58 mph. lol.

 

Cobalt 2.2 stock:
MP81,16.32@84.31 w/2.40 60',coupe auto

 

And my car did a 16.40 @ 83.55 w/ a 2.4 60' three years ago.

I'm sorry, but 16.3-16.4 is not a 15 second pass

 

I/E 5 speed 15.5 @89MPH here

 

its a bone stock car, cant read? full boltons and a tune on that car is more then enough to kick off 4 tenths

 

Yeah? And back then all I had was a K&N drop-in.

 

so you say when u were basicaly stock u were in the 16's, but your first post here you say u ran 17's...want me to find the post for you?

 

Don't expect good things your first few runs. All I gotta say Feel it out and good luck!

 

Yes, my car got slower.

SHENANIGANS!

 

Btw, I never got to go to the track last sunday. Had some other crap come up and had to be at work later, I'll keep this thread for when I do go. My track is not doing a test n tune for a while, but I'll post times when I go.

Maybe I'll get the coveted "cat-back exhaust" so I can break into the 15's since no one thinks I can do it, lol.

I really don't see how I wouldn't be in the 15's with an exhaust and the mods I have.

 

I went 16.40 @ 83.5 with an Injen CAI and Pacesetter Catback

1 year later I went 16.50 @ 83 with Intake, LSJ Exhaust Mani, Catless Downpipe, Catback & B&M

1 year later I went 17.35 @ 80 with Intake, Intake Mani, Exhaust Mani, Catless DP, Catback, Solid Mounts and a tune.

All I have to say is good luck, and if you want to make a friendly wager, I will bet you that you won't make a 15 second pass.
