I have a '04 GTO A4 with (custom) diablosport tune, K&N Cai, and TB Bypass. My question is how do yall think my car would fare against a stock or mildily modded Cobalt SS?? There's a few around here locally and I wanna know what I'm up against??

When I was at the track there was a Stage 3 Cobalt SS there and he couldn't hook up for nothing. We raced and I pulled him out of the hole hard and beat him but he said he was pulling pretty hard toward the end of the track.

 

you'll get your ass handed to you slowpoke.

 

I see this thread ending in happiness and rainbows

 

lmao

your an A4 so if its a midly modded ss from a roll it will be close. from a dig you should be able to win unless the ss has a gooddriver. anything more than a stg.2,exhaust, and intake, and it could be trouble for you

 

Holy **** LittleMT! How is it going? I need your expertice on a DA discustion a couple days ago.

 

You will beat the living SHAT outta him, easy.

 

Appreciate the info and kind response. I feel like I'm in a hornet's nest though

I plan on getting full exhaust within the next couple months.

 

I don't know what the discussion was but most low altitude folks don't realize and fail the understand the devastating effects DA has on HP resulting in slower ET's and traps, until they expereince it 1st hand..

 

agreed
DA is definately something only believed by the people who truely experience it.

and its no fun at all.

 

Yup. Well first they thought i lived in new england or some ****, then i tryed telling them all about DA because they had no clue what it was and have never heard of it. and they called me a noob.

 

no problem. theres a 04 m6 runnin around my town with a full exhaust on his goat and it sounds sick as hell

 

If they have never heard of DA that speaks volumes of a persons lack of knowledge of drag racing...

 

depends on the mods the cobalt has but it would probably take a pretty nice setup to make it close.

 

who is the spelling police with the 5 posts?

 

lmao

 

Fail.

See me after class.

 

Go from a dig...don't give in to that 40 mph roll ****...and if he wants to do a roll...do a 60 roll....thats your sweet spot....good luck, have fun, and be safe...

 

I think 30mph is the sweet spot as that A4 will reach down and grab 1st and really take off...

 

why if the cars that much faster why not give a little edge to the cobalt

 

Heh, sometimes the V8 needs the edge, as seen in this video of me racing my son:

yes i have seen that vid the srt is a beast

 

Oh yeah?

Have you seen the video of my 2006 SS LS4 W-body dyno?

I was called out by a LT1 car locally and I made this video to scare him off!

Is that alot of hp for the car? Your elevation plays into that im guessing

 

Its not bad for a stock LS4 auto at altitude....

the cars best time was a 14.79@95mph at 6000ft...

these cars run high 13's near sea level...
