SRT-4 Members Love the New SS/TC

http://www.srt-4mation.com/showthread.php?t=16064

I'm a member of the SRT-4 forums because I know some of them. Check out this thread. They all are saying the new cobalt ss/tc is going to surpase everything.

Wow, no thoughts. I'll post the new reveiw about the SS/TC. More changes then we thought.

"the 2008 Chevrolet Cobalt SS uses up just 5.8 seconds accelerating to 60 mph, and it goes through the quarter-mile in 14 seconds flat at 103 mph. This is a night-and-day improvement over the supercharged Cobalt SS, which couldn't break 7 seconds for 60 mph and ran a 15.2-second quarter at 95.6 mph. In fact, the '08 Cobalt SS is, for the moment, the quickest car you can buy under $25,000."

ahahahahhahahahahahahahaha!!!!

any one of you guys want to forward your stock time slips to them???

I know they are out there but I have yet to find a nice srt-4 owner. The 3 or 4 I have run into just give me the mean muggs and revs.

Yea, very good point. I ran a 14.2 @ 100mph with a stock SS/SC. Imagine how fast a TC will be with me behind the wheel

Lets see, they said I would do it with my SS/SC in 15.2, 1 second faster.

They say I will do the 1/4th in 14 flat, that means I could do it in 13 flat. Talk about a fast car!

Haha, let the SS T/C come out, just means they'll under-rate the SS S/C even more. I'm ok with that personally, it's not like an LSJ can't be modded to go fast, just takes more moolah to do it than some others.

I read that thread. Sounded like a few of them want to trade up to an SS/TC.

true, but the iat2's are way lower on the TVS. Plus the original topic i was adressing was someone thought that the LSJ was inable to handle 320+ hp, he did not specify method of Forced Induction

Thats some good air right there! 100 mph stock trap speed is impressive. My car only trapped 95 mph the first time I went to the track. Even with intake/exhaust it only trapped 98 mph (it was 103 degrees outside).
