I'll admit its a good quality car. we got a hell of a deal on hers, which was good cause her cobalt was worth 4000 less than what she owed. in the end her payment went up 10 bucks and she no longer has a base model cobalt but a fully loaded focus. It has no creaks/groans and you dont even feel bumps lol

The SI was most likely stock with an intake, and even with the stock intake you can hear VTEC. You are pretty modded and the tune helps wonders with the Cobalts. Intake and exhaust does not really add a lot of power like with the NA cobalts. Good kill, I love hondas, and sold the cobalt for my Accord but I hate the people that try to race everyone. Gives the respectable ones like me a bad name.

This is coming from Honda guy... When tuned and driven right(which is rare), they can be very fast. The Civic Si 8th gen is the same as RSX Type S, but the Si has an LSD.

This is what is the matter with people. A 13 second run isn't that impressive. Look at its shitty (relative to ET) mph. That is no faster than a practically stock LSJ. Sure, he got a good launch (doubt stock tires) but that's it.

Mph matters more. And that civic wouldn't stand a chance against a lightly modded lsj

Just saying now. It doesn't have cams, or anything internal changed. Just i/e mods with Hondata K pro tune. Show me n/a Cobalt 2.4 beating Mazdaspeed3's now.... :P


^Tell me that's not mighty damn impressive for a n/a 2.0 liter engine!

That's not what I was talking about. Try and keep up...just saying. I was taking about the Si.

And a full bolt on lsj traps higher. Your point?

Okay, I'll post some of my videos if you want....


Mustang GT bolt on vs Honda S2000.

Here is my car versus that ^ S2000.

I posted the Mustang GT vs S2000 Race to mustang forums and their reaction was....

^If they're that mad with me posting an sports car S2000 beating their V8, imagine how mad they would be if I posted my grocery getter secretary Accord walking that GT!

Ok for one nice headlight race and two that s2k wasn't boosted and everyone knows a non boosted s2k isn't quick. So how about you go raced a ss/sc or ss/tc and post up the video. til then no one on this forum cares about you or your slow accord haha.

The headlight race turns into a tail light race if you keep watching, my bright red accord is pretty hard to miss.

That S2000 is quick, the Mustang GT is just an automatic.

Trust me, I will post up a video when I run into one. Course I could post up me racing a 23 PSI Trifecta tune 300 whp T/C one, but wouldn't be a race. It would be rape, I would have to call 911.

Want to see the link to Mustang forums ? It's hilarious.... Their replies.

I posted this to make them feel better....

Um I had a 2.9 pulley on a m62 and a 300hp tc wouldn't pull on me(he made more then 300btw and I have a video). Sorry bud but you may give a stock ss/sc a run for it's money but if if it has anything done to it no. But for now here is something useful for you to watch on YouTube

Yeah... I got the hint man, hence I deleted all those youtube vids from my posts.

Edit: How did he not pull on you ? This Cobalt SS T/C traps DA corrected 13.1 @ 109 miles per hour, with DR's it will rip off 12's all day!
