What also blows my mind, is the amount of Mustang guys on a Cobalt forum? Why? I see that some actually own both a cobalt and a mustang, which makes sense, but a few only have a Mustang, and they are on this site.... to what purpose? I am being quite mature and serious in this quesiton. My best friend has a blown foxbody with an original 69' windsor motor that runs 6.2s in the 1/8th (street car)...so I am not biased by any stretch of the imagination.
TWO... one of which has just 18 posts.
Point is... I'm not just some noob troll who showed up a few days ago to make fun of Cobalts or something.
I was and am legitimately interested in Cobalts and cars in general, and when a topic I'm familiar with comes up, I post up what I know. Of course, that tends to be about Mustangs, but when you've got some people on here that clearly know NOTHING about Mustangs, it's nice to have someone who does.
That being said, when I go to the Dream Cruise in Detroit and take hundreds of pictures, I have purposely taken pictures of the Cobalts as well as GM's Cobalt concepts to share with the forum.
Certainly, there are people who come here to troll and contribute nothing. Myself, being a car enthusiast in general, Mustang enthusiast second, I don't fall into that category.

this thread is ******* stupid... you have dipshit trying to state fact when fiction is all there full of...
lets see who has the knowledge to back it.
FACT #1.. speed density cars on AVERAGE were faster then Mass Air 5.0s stock
lets see.. i own a Fox body.. and i own an 06 ss/sc...
my fox body beats the **** out of my balt all day long any way you wanna slice it.
to the dipshit that said 300hp cant be done on a NA 302 with some swaps.. your a dipshit... a simple TFS top-end kit will net you well over 300rwhp.
this is a paragraph of useless spew.. what exactly are you getting at?
/shootyourself
shoot your teacher or shoot your dad..or jump off a bridge if somehow you managed to **** things up still

no my astatement is the same. there is no magic in the mustang. and my original comment has not been discounted by anything other than opinoin. and all your tuff talk and name calling simply shows your defensiveness. at no point did i change my statement of fact. and 300 hp is what a 08 gt 4.6 is putting out. these are not make believe stories on the internet. and the cobalt should not be disrespected based simply on unrealistic build specs. when being compared to a V8 system. thats just the way mustang ranch works though. your turbo is worth about 100 hp. and yes i live in the real world and thats the way it is. try not reading so much into what you think i mean. the horse power quoted has nothing to do with your argument about how hard you can squeeze 5.0. i get the impression you think i don't respect the small block. i never even said a negative thing about mustang or the 5.0. the comparision was to a 4 cylinder motor and an 8. but as mustang owners apparently you can't see that. and so here we go again. it is not about who is better or who is faster they are what they are. and as for my exsperience i am not judged by children reguardless of how they percieve me. and ricer i don't think so.

BAHAHA yea i bet the porkers love your bright red interior trim and neons! don't talk **** about cars being slow, when you drive a basically stock car and you know it isn't fast. that is just asking for issues. Non of the mustang owners in here have stated anything but fact to support their claims...but cobalt owners are coming up with 340hp 5.0's in the shelby gt (LOL!) and that mustangs are slow, but they drive a 14 sec car (that's you buddy)
Now which admin is going to be the Knight in Shining armor and close this worthless thread... its getting old!

Dude, your cool in my book. I have been on many forums over the years, mostly car, but was just floored by the amount of Mustang guys, thats all. It was a legitament question with no biased attached. Keep taking Pics!

Wow this thread just made me realize how many immature idiots their are on this website. I thought this website was more mature?? Guess not.
OH, just to add some irony to everything since I seem to be one of the "mustang guys," I raced my buddies 01 GT mustang with 3.90 gears and full exhaust today, beat him twice. In the cobalt. LOLOLOLOL lets hear it............
btw the idiot(s?) who said a turboed 5.0 mustang would be lucky to break 13s, man, you must have NEVER seen a real turbo 5.0 in REAL life cuz those cars lay the smack down. I had a twin turbo 92 GT with a stock 5.0 with very mild upgrades and an upgraded fuel system, meth injection and 12 pounds of boost and I could pull my buddies ZX7R sport bike. Was an easy 120 mph 1/4 mile car. Racing a cobalt ss/sc with it would have been a complete joke.

YUP. Cause girls absolutely hate Mustangs, and they MOST DEFINITELY hate convertibles.
You must get a lot of head turns too, especially with your uber quiet exhaust. We should line up and give a few revs. See how many people turn for you, and how many turn for me. Id bet ya not only would I get more turns, but id also probly set off some car alarms.
Congrats! You just earned yourself a VERY SPECIAL PERSON sticker! Now I know youre tempted to chew on it, but its made in china so it probly has lead, and we dont want you becoming MORE SPECIAL than you already are.
You have no chance in hell of out classing my car in any aspects. You should quit while your ahead. Actually you would never be ahead, considering your car is MUCH SLOWER, so you should just quit.
Have a nice and SPECIAL DAY!!
The boost route seems to be the cheapest thoough, other than N20 of course.

this is getting retarded haha...put it this way. A bolt on 5 liter will destroy a ss/sc any day of the week. Cobras will do that a little easier and obviously 03-04s you shouldnt even bother with. 05+ sucks but can even if 5 speeds run 13s stock...but a bolt on 05 and up should still eat you alive...
And to the dipshit who thinks a turbod stock motored fox cant do 11's....would you like me to take pictures of the articles? I have plenty of MM&FF magazines near my *******.

think about it a 2.0L with a supercharger can run 14.4
and 5.0L with a supercharger will run alot better... have you ever heard of the saying "there is no replacement for displacment?"
i bet a foxbody could get itno the 12's with full exhaust cai and slicks.

I'm really not quite sure yet. I'm taking my time and making sure i do this build right since i have another car and i am in school so i am not really pressed for time. As of now i'm planning on just running the v2 for a while after the motor is done and deciding from there what would satisfy. I still haven't finished deciding on what i want to do with the top end of the motor though, and i want to pick the perfect cams so i will probably decide soon. I will most likely go with a KB setup because i have a feeling with aggressive cams and a centri this thing is gonna be all top end and i don't necessarily want that. i'll have to take some pics for you when i get home for summer...2 weeks.

i don't believe that a stock 5.0 with a turbo will run in the 11 sec. quarter even if it is in st. louis. a turbo 5.0 would do well to run 13's. so come on mustang guys to be talking the same old tired ford guy ****. the mustang wins the pony car class by defaut only. there is no magic in the mustang. and 300 hp is about all your gonna get. and with 2.0 and a stage 2 you get 250 hp so let's do the math which one makes the most hp per cubic inch. and anyone can site something they have seen how about what you have and drive everday.
