I have been talking to people about the times i speculate for the 1/4 mile when i go in april. I wanted to get all your opinons and speculations on what you think my car can do with its current mods. (see below) please vote on a number that you think my car can do. Thanks.

 

I say low 16's

 

low 16's

prove us wrong!!

 

well i thought modded 2.2 auto's were already doing low 16's shouldnt my 2.4 be faster than them?

 

yea perfect driving and perect conditions atleast in the low 15's very high 14's......the 2.4's are running 15.2 in the 1/4.......I came very close to that with a full tank of 87. many of the s/c guys don't like the fact that we are not far behind them stock for stcok

 

im so eager to get some runs in i hate living in a winter state, but at least next month i get to see my whp on a dyno so that will be cool

 

I am not sure but I will this season what I can do

 

people with simmilar mods have pulled low to mid 15's.
i think your chances of low 15s would be way better if you drove stick, but for the auto, im gonna say mid 15's and i dont see you doing too much better without boost

 

well boost will hopefully be here late july to mid august depeneding how much i can save and how quickly i can do it

 

who thinks with my mods i could be making 162 whp?

 

high 15 - low 16
do some weight reduction and remove the wing and body kit that dont belong
good for .2 sec I would think LOL

 

+1 .

 

You seem to have a real hate-on against SS/SC owners... many of the posts I've seen you make have similar quips as above. Trying to compensate for something?

Anyways, I'll go out on a limb and say mid 15's... We all know that the car is capable of that.

 

well this is cool talking about what we think it can do, but i just cant wait to get out there in april to see some real numbers.

 

no...i don't have to compensate for anything....the cobalt is my grocery getter....the real car is sitting next to it in the driveway. compensate for what?....a 14 second 1/4....no thanks i stick to the 12's. Also, I have never put down a s/c.....just the people who drive them whom get all "butt hurt" when someone puts on the s/c wing. other than that I happen to get along fine with the other cobalt "enthusiasts"

 

yeah ive never really heard you make any derogatory comments about the ss/sc from what i read.

 

Im going to go with low 16s. The auto is going to kill you. The dealer I got my car from had an auto SS 2.4 ther and the sales guys raced it agenst a 22. 5-speed and it lost. Not by much though. Like a fender in a 0-60 run

Later

 

yeah right .... like to see you prove that one.

 

well i cant wait to see what i can pull in april

 

wait are you suggesting that the cobalt is your Grocery getter and that the GTO is yours because from all your other posts I seem to recall you stating that’s your moms GTO ... in which case it seems more reasonable that the GTO is the real Grocery getter ..

 

o thats just straight played

 

wait...BOTH my parents are dead?......i really wish it was my mom's GTO but sadly it is not.....my "foster mother" had a MONTE CARLO....not sure how you got GTO outta that

 

mid 15's--like a 15.5-15.7

 

sorry I meant Boyfriend

So why take your Grocery Getter to the Track ??

and how does someone who is 19 afford a LS2 GTO and Cobalt SS not to mention ..what kind of 19 year old needs a Grocery Getter?

https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/members/cobalt443-4630/

why would you trade a 2.2 for a 2.4 if it was only meant to get groceries

why would you mod your Grocery getter ? do you need to get Groceries faster ?

both of our names are on BOTH cars....including our house deed.....now it is understandable to refute how a 19 year old could afford all of this...i absolutely understand where you're coming from...i call the gto mine as much as he calls the cobalt his. i work for a very well reconized company which pays very well. i got office experience as an intern all throughout the end of middle school and all of high school. i actually just got engaged last night also....will post pics in a seperate thread. the gto is his daily driver while the cobalt is mine yet we mix match whenever. you can think what you want and refute what you want. if it makes you feel better/cool to try and put other people down, that's fine b/c at the end of the day i know whom and to what i go home to
