it might just be that you ignore every point that is brought against you, and as such, i realize there is no point in trying to convince you of your failure, but i still feel compelled to at least mention your retardation in this thread

 

hey, mexi...its okay man....cause LSD is whats making us fast.....f/i has nothing to do with it

 

Dude, that was good! If your smack talking even makes me laugh, you rule. You wasted a degree on English? Now that's fail. You got a degree, but my English is ten times better than yours. I bet I can read 3 times faster than you and write faster as well. Not only that, philosophy that ancient is useless is modern times. And they are idiots who would be wasting away in mental wards. You really want to study someone smart? Here's my choices.
1. Ben Franklin
2. Alexander Graham Bell
3. Henry Ford

Contributors of more than tired old thoughts and ideas. Life goes on unaffected by old philosophy. Without the last three men, life never takes shape. My and my homebody are
laying bets on how many times your next post will contain the word fail. I bet 200 dollars that you will say it at least four times, double or nothing if "fail" is preceded by "epic".

 

Did I mention GM actually manage to change out my motor for me too? Yeah, it's true: I actually have the same engine as the ZR-1

 

no they only made one of those engines, and its in his. you must have something else.

hey *******, you read my post yet? #174....come on, hurry and respond i need to laugh some more

taken from post 97 of your original thread.

i'll take you up on that bet

so you tell us you know how to build an engine.....but you think his car redlines at 5200rpms just cause thats when his peak hp is?

.....but wait.....didn't you just say your redline was at 5k????? oh...yep, you sure did.....

 

Yup, and 6 liters has nothing to do with why my car makes almost 400whp

 

Honestly man, I tried your approach with my very first post. I described the car and told of what had happened while driving it. The secret supercar ****, was conjured up be everyone else. All I was saying was that the car was a bit more powerful then I was told. Thats all I have been trying to say. I didnt come to boast or be better than anyone else. I did however discover something about GM Performance Division teaming up with certain partners for certain projects on certain cobalts. I posted the info with verifications, and I ******* got censored. I havent threatened anyone will anything other getting beat in a race. Do the research yourself. Go find out for yourself what renowned race engine builder is in bed with GM Performance Division. I'll give you a hint, it starts with an "R". One final thing mexi, Im angry now because some people think its cool to talk about sexaully assaulting a deceased mother, it happened to me. Nice guy left at that moment. I didnt start all this animosity. I was too floored by the 93 responses of personal attacks that I never thought would have happened. Obviously something I said touched a nerve. Im out of apologies for whatever I said that offended people in that first post. Mexi, would you appreciate me trashing your deceased mother on here, in public? I think not. Guarunteed I'm going to defensive now. The line was crossed. You think I dont' know ****, can the childish immaturity and you just might surprised at what I do know. Hence the words now everyone. If you want to have mature discussions about Cobalt, awesome. If you want to dog me out and and do the "I know you are but what am I" ****, expect relentless posting of "go **** yourself." People here toss those momma jokes like its "real talk." Where I'm from, dissing momma' get's you hospitalized." Anyone who reads this and was offended by something in my first cobaltss.net post, I sincerely apologize. I never intended to offend anyone.

 

no, hack you're making that power cause you have dual hood scoops....yeah, thats it

 

...must be the HIDs

 

c'mon hack, you gotta admit the painted wheels contribute at least 200 of that hp.

 

yeah, didn't you have lightweight HID's???? oh ****! i know what it is. super low density blinker fluid

 

You got a limited slip in the GTO? Remove it and downgrade. I wasnt even talking about cid or GTOS for that matter. How muchh of that 400hp would you be wasting without a LSD? You jumped on the conversation and made a statement that didnt have **** to do with what I was saying. Actaully you know what, just chill with that **** for a second, I got something to share.

I once had a 79 Mustang LX, the tiny small one. The body was absolute trash. If you really want a good laugh, this was the car. Busted window, different color body panels. Half a dash, I swear. Rims were metric, so forget ever having new tires. But inside was a sleeper. 302 V8, roller cams, roller rocker arms, roller every thing. Cam has 500 lift. It had such a sick lobe that it always sounded like the car would die. You remember glass packs? I do. They were way too loud. Even at an idle. Starting this car was a chore, so I installed a Supercoil, which helped only slightly. A four barrel holley 650 cfm and edelbrock performance ensured many trips to the gas station, but no big deal cause gas was 89 cents. Dang, 89 cents, gotta let that sink in. Anyways...

Im rolling around my neighborhood, showing off my hooptie with the badass engine. It was the only thing remotely badass about the car, if that. I am in the middle of the street and some of the younger neighborhood kids are on there bikes, trying to get me to do a burnout. I finally say ok and start to burn out. I hear a pop from the rear end and the next thing I know the back of the car is sitting on its gearbox. I got laughed at all day long. Even I thought it was prety funny. The differential had disentegrated into 100 pieces of shrapnel and the axles, rear hubs, brake drums, and wheels shot out from the rear end like rockets, one in some yard, the other in a ditch. The torgue had to got somewhere, it went to the unibody, rip! Not enough to notice till later though. I go to a ford dealership for a new differential. The guy says, "hey man, you want and LSD? I got a 71/2 inch Dana for 230 bucks." Sold. I get this LSD home, put the car up on jackstands, while thanking God I didnt strip the splines on the axles. It takes me two hours to install the diff., add friction modifier, u joints, blah blah. The very second I get on the street, I immediately noticed a complete difference in the car. More stable idle, more pull in the wheels when driving the car without giving it gas. The car car reached 10 mph without even touching the pedals. This is typical of all cars, but not this one. It didnt do that before. I pull onto the street, Im all alone. The light turns green. I punch it to floor. In about the same length of road that exists in a Wal mart parking lot, which is all I have to go by distance wise, that mustang did 90 mph. It never made out of second gear. That differential made that car twice as fast. I took it on 225 in pasadena went for broke. I dont really know just hwo fast I was going, but the needle was facing 6 o clock and just ticking. Faster than a Cobalt for sure. That car would scare the **** out of anybody, especially when you start to feel the whole back end of the car sway because litttle do you know, the unibody is splitting. The final straw for the car was went I was trying to corner really fast one day and I saw the real fender of the car on the passenger side without sticking my head out that window. I spun out and the torgue literally forced the back side of the car to do a 180, which in turn pulled the cab of the car straight into a telephone pole. Unbeleivably, I 'm not hurt at all. I get out of the car, and its torn in two pieces. The car should have had a roll cage, but I was a kid, I didnt know about that ****. I get the car home and get set to pull the engine out and guess what. The heads have massive blow-by. So instead, I give the engine to a non profit that water skis the disabled. It was put in a ski boat and is hauling watersking paraplegics all over lake houston. And they all want to ski behind the fast boat too. Thats why I say, drive without an LSD, it makes more of a difference. The drivetrain is where most HP is lost, thats not news. Losing an LSD costs you way my horses then losing a supercharger. And the loss is much greater to a 4 cylinder than a v8.

Actually man, I think that 90mm throttle body is getting it done for you.

 

oh really, is that why i went 13.787 on 248whp????? just 17whp above what i dynoed stock.....

 

No I didnt say that. I didnt say at all that the LSD "gave" you anything. It just delivers more of what you have to the pavement. So quick to try to tear me apart. Even still, no LSD doesnt mean slower car. Just means only one wheel to lay down the power. Im getting one. I think everyone would get one when the funds are available. I wish Cobalts were AWD like Impreza's or Skylines.

 

sooooo.....then what did you mean by this???

you're saying that without the lsd...our cars are not quick, with or without the f/i. which is not true

 

I was talking about Hack. Sorry, where did you get the 17whp increase from? Im not trying be sarcastic, just curious?

 

2.8, 60's. and a bare minimum tune to run them

 

14.8s is slow for a stock LSJ. 14.2-14.3s all day long with a good driver. Best time for me was 14.2 @ 100mph...

 

R&C you came in waaaaaaaaaaay late buddy hahaha

 

Actaully I think thats pretty damn good. Whats your hp vs you whp?

Actually I think anything over 10 secs is slow. But the Cobalts not that kinda of car either. 13 secs is modest for a 250hp fwd 4 cylinder. I'd be happy with 13 secs, I'd be relentless to 12 however.

 

never did anything to establish a bhp run. stock i did 231whp/205wtq. with the 2.8, 60's and base tune i did 248whp with no torque reading. will be going back again and getting tuned for 2.8, 60s, h/e, 3" intake, hahn header, hahn downpipe, hahn catback, and methanol

 

Ok cool perfect. Now here's where theres been a problem. I just looked at your car, its more like mine then most. Im not saying that my car is 230 hp205tq, I dont know. It just feels like it to me. Consider other cars or trucks i had that i knew for a fact were 170 hp like mine is supposed to be. I had a dodge dynastry for about 8 months once. It was 178 hp and with a mitsubishi v6 and holley port fuel injection. It was a granny car. Well the Cobalt with the same hp (supposedly) would ru8n circles around a granasty. Can you understand me, the car is more than GM says it is. Man Im telling if you could drive this car youd agree man. This car has more power than that. Im not saying it has any more power or less than anything else. Its jsut not 171 hp, there's no way. I do know the cams and gears are helping, but. And I'm being honest as **** man. GM is not very forthcoming. In fact, they're acting like the plug is getting pulled on them, which I heard is gonna happend, but damn. Here case in point. Do you have the stage two brakes?

 

there are no stage2 brakes. the car will feel as if it has more power because it is a lighter car than whatever it was you mentioned. and i really am having a very hard time believing you have cams in your car. go take a video.

 

I don't buy that there's cams... I think your car has light bolt-ons and your perception of huge power is attributable to it being light.

As for F/I not making the 2.0s fast? I'm pretty sure my car only takes off when the boost needle swings out of vacuum.

 

I have Stage 2 Brakes
(They come stock with the SS/TC.)
