New to Cobalts here
 

Hello all, bought a 2009 Cobalt SS a couple of months ago and having a blast with it. Bought it from a local guy here in town and he has done the basics to it, intake and exhaust. Sounds good and drive really good. Hope to learn more about these cars here on the forum.

is it a supercharged one?

im looking to get a used 2005 cobalt ss . anything I should look out for?

It's turbo charged I believe, still learning between turbos and superchargers.

turbos are just the piece on the supercharger that spins, everyone knows that.

sc 2005 - 2007
tc 2008 - 2010

Thanks for the info, I feel like a total noob for not knowing. Guess I'll have to spend some time looking under the hood. Like I said, I'm new to sc/tc cars.

im new here too so lost but ready to mod like hell

just got my victory red 10 last week

Mines natural aspiration so what can I do to make it faster?

Congrats to you. I've been really enjoying my car the past couple of months, the previous owner took really good car of it. It only has 70k miles on itl

bueller?

Damn I thought they were all supercharged. Might have to sell my 2005 I just got and get that purple 2009 in the classifieds. Turbos over SC because noise

do you know if they come with brambo brakes?

Sorry, I can't help you there, I'm still learning myself with all the mod upgrades.

I just went out an looked and it looks like theres some brambos on there. Since these are also chevy's does anyone know if Cadillac CTS-V 6 pots could be swapped on? I like to upgrade brakes before I go for power.

Dang you guys are going all out with these cars, amazing. Can't wait to learn more.

The turbocharged cobalt come with brembos in the fronts, if you really want to upgrade the brakes zzperformance sells a kit 14.5 inch I believe

thanks! there's no weird brake bias if the rears dont have brembos also?

I noticed the Brembos on the front when I bought the car, and that was 1 of my buying points when I was looking at the car.

Nah remember cars brake with a 70% front to 30% back brembos on the back aren't needed. I'm looking at making 450+whp on my car and I haven't upgraded my brakes

Nice to know, what pads are you running in the rears?

Stock is recommended nothing better than that

I think the SC models are the best. there's too many turbo issues and the superchsarger is a nice talking point. lots of cars hvae turbos now and so when I tell people i have a supercharger its more intrersting. a lot of subarus have turbos and they arnt that fast.

Can we ban these douche trolls yet?

They are a bunch of subby guys. Guess they keep getting their asses handed to them by balts and came to spy the competition . isn't that right?
