hey whats up, i have an 05 rx8 looking for a better gas mileage vehicle with performance and im pretty set on getting a SS

the supercharged are everywhere and a lot cheaper but less hp

turbo is hard to find, more expensive but more hp


my question is, how hard would it be to pick up a cheap sc and get a few bolt ons and tuned to be somewhere around the tc. it would be a lot cheaper $11k for a sc compared to a $17k tc around here.


thanks

 

Easy haha Don't underestimate the powerband of a sc with bolt ons and the torque

 

Also look on here there is a couple sc and tc cobalts for sale for very resonable prices.

 

Agreed

 

alright ill reconsider the sc, i have to buy from a dealership because its part of my credit rebuilding process.

also a friend has a neon srt 4, im sure that would beat the sc stock to stock, but as would it more be a drivers race? or would i just completely get overpowered?

 

When I had just intake I was door to door with an 04 nsrt4.. It did have 100k but still

 

Lol ill sale you mine for 14,500 lol

 

sure if youll let me make payments

 

It would be tough for me to decide 6k difference would get you a sweet turbo set up for the SC. But I cant stand the SC steering wheel. Not that it would be too difficult to swap but still

 

What's so bad about the steering wheel? lol

 

im interested to know as well?

 

Bulky and not a vette steeribg wheel hahaha.. No payments lol

 

do some research my friend YOUR steering wheel came factory in my 07 SC it was the first year that gm switched from the four post to the triangle 3 post wheel. the 05 to 06 SS's have the four post

 

Well sorry then.
And yes I dont like the previous one since its so large. I didnt know it was the same as the corvette until a few months ago when I was getting some work done at my dealership

 

wasnt trying to be a dick i just see alot of misinformation the goes on here. Like that cobalt SS fact thread that was a joke so much fail

 

Oh ok lol Im just used to the typical dick nature around here I guess

 

just letting the op know that he can get the SC model with the "vette" wheel if he wants it would have to be an 07 though. the post did seem kinda dickheadish though so sorry for that

 

ss/sc with bolt on's and good e85 tune and you will be happy.

 

Naw dont worry about it. I didnt know about that I actually didnt think they made SCs in 07I thought they were discontinued for one year. Learn something every day

 

Mine is a 07 and what !!! A vette wheel can fit my steering wheel or did I miss something

 

The vette wheel is the same as ours just with a different badge in the center

 

thats funny your screen name is my gamer tag on x box
