I'm just here to prove facts and the facts are a stock Si is NOOOO match for a stock SS/SC !!!!!!!!!!! if you arent hiding anything else then you are a good driver and your buddy in the SS/SC is not, because a Stage 2 SS/SC is out of your league with a good driver behind the wheel.

Also, i would love to see you run a 14.1 with just a drop in and exhaust on stock tires ....
You're a total idiot, completely bias towards your own car and unwilling to accept anything other than what you think is correct.

Here ya go
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fhWttLZ0EmU

14.1 bone stock... that coupled with the dozens and dozens of 14.3-14.5's I've seen outta compleeeeeeeeeeetely stock Si's trumps any "info" you might have.

SS/SC vs Si = DRIVERS RACE

Fastest stock Cobalt 14.0 @ 100
Fastest stock Si 14.096 @ 99

I'll see your 13.8 and raise you to a 13.59 @ 102, NO TUNE

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRYDU...eature=related

Just intake, RH, and an exhaust.

Time for you Cobalt guys to bite the hammer and just accept it.

No. The SS/SC is faster no matter how u slice it. It wins from a roll every time because it is a faster car.

dig = skill
roll = which car is actually faster

Except in this case when 1 car is inherently better at launching than the other.
Don't think about it so hard though or your head might explode.

Also there are TONS of other cases where your "theory" doesn't apply, lol @ the car that wins from a roll is actually the faster car. Some of you guys crack me up so bad.

So my GTO was faster than the Procharged Mustang that ran 12.2 @ 116 to my 12.5 @ 112 because when we ran from a 40+ roll I would walk him everytime?

Yet he slapped me around on the 1/4 mile (while I had a better 60' to boot)... but MY car is faster.

yea. If u can walk him from a roll ur faster. This is the same example ur trying to use with the Si vs SS. SS is faster, yet can run a crappier 1/4mi. However roll racing the SS spanks the SI.

O, and the 60' isnt the end all. Plenty of room to mess up ur run to the finish line.

Winning from a roll shows who is faster? WTF you smoking.

If I raced a 1970 chevelle from a 60 and rape it, yet he runs a 9.x 1/4 mile to my 13, i'm still faster? That's the dumbest thing i've ever heard.

Yeah dude you're on some crack. His car is built for the 1/4 he has 4.10 gears. On the highway my GTO wins, but he has the FASTER CAR.

It boils down to gearing, which is why the Si is JUST as quick as the SS/SC.

Yeah sorry, I was being sarcastic.

So which is faster, a built STi that runs a 12.0 @ 111, or a Supra that runs 12.5 @ 120? And is the race that the Supra loses the fault of the driver or the car?

you should only have boost cut by 50% under 4k RPM.that will help your dig races.. cause if i read this right you have a 50% cut in ALL of first.. and every once in awhile you meet a honda driver THAT CAN DRIVE.. GL and think bout getting your tune changed.. and if it is a ZZP tune DITCH IT.. and go with a custom HPtuner's setup..

u guys are being retarded. Since when was this about a modded car with gears? This is about an stock SS vs a stock SI. u talking about an SI running 4.10's? Last time I checked theyre not.

And since u want to go this route how about this? TORQUE WINS RACES. The SS has lots more TQ, and more HP at an equivalent weight. Did u guys forget about TQ when drag racing?

And if u want to talk gears how about this:

U guys are FASTER up top, theyre FASTER on the bottom. How is their car faster again? Sure he can smoke u to 60 mph, but what about the top end? How are they faster there? Theyre not. U need a BALANCE of power, not just Ill smoke u to 80 mph!

No we're not talking about 4.10's because the Si has 4.77's while the SC only has 4.05's. It's all about TORQUE MULTIPLICATION

and the si doesnt have that going for it. The si has virtually no TQ. And u need to rev the damn thing to 8k rpms to start to see it.

139 ft lbs? Thats a joke. theres a reason mildly bolted cobalt lt's can hang with an si. The SI has **** for power.
