damn post ******. anyway i've killed accords, civics, a cavy, neon, grand ams, v6 grand prix, scion tc and a sentra ser spec-v a coupla times and all races were motor for motor. the 2.2 is a respectable engine however because it comes as a base package there will always be haters.

i see cars every damn day that willl own every car on this forum.

i find the lambo victory hard to swallow. i just don't see even with a mediocre driver at the wheel.

You can't claim 14's being N/A.It wouldn't have happened without the nitrous.
I'm into the 13's and my car isn't fast or able to pull times to brag about.

A stock RSX-S isn't going to beat SS/SC stock for stock.

Who cares about the money issue if you spent thousands more on a LS than an old hatch..who cares.A cars a car and you could have went with that or similar instead.

Yes, both cars are slow stock (The SI hatch and the LS) but he did infact get rid of his weak point..the engine.I guess the good think about Cobalts is that you can just get an engine full of potential by just ordering an SS.

Because the 2.0 has an 'LS' appended to it's engine code.

LSx engines are God's engines.

Haha, apparently Hahn did when they destroked to a 2.0 on there 600hp L61 build.Considering they also had the 2.2 and 2.4 as an option I'm sure GM used the 2.0 for a reason on the "performance" trim. Honestly I don't care either way and I'm not going to argue with you like a teen girl.Infact I'm not even going to check this thread again, say what you want.
