Are most of the people around there stock or what?
He probably runs a low 13 comparing him to other s/c'd rsx's at 8~9psi

Step One:
2.9 pulley from Nate, light weight more power pulley.

Step Two:
Get lightweight wheels, put some drag radials up front.

Step Three:
GMP exhaust

Step Four:
GMP manifold

Step Five:
Downpipe with high flow

Step Six:
Run him again and you win.

Step Seven:
If you don't win tell him to come meet my cobalt.

I should probably throw in my (educated OMG!) e-bench racing opinion that you will not beat a supercharged RSX no matter how much money you waste. They trap in the 109-110mph range.

turbo, n20, or s/c swap

these are the only 3 steps in the process, and you only need to choose one.
p.s. r&c rally, you're too slow also, theres maybe 1 guy on here thats got a chance (FNFAST) and i dont think he can win either.

Um well I disagree! I have been in the FNFAST cobalt. ITS FNFAST! He is my brother, and he definately can beathigh and mid 12s in the 1/4. 317whp, with 405 gearing is very very respectable.

well, thats great. but that makes him the only cobalt (who has produced a slip) that can run that fast. with the s/c swaps and t/c swaps out now, 12's will be commonplace in the next 6 months though.

yes it is... you just need traction.. there are very little cars that run 100+ traps and aren't getting low 13s much less running 106+ traps SHOULD be high 12s or better... but no one can get traction.... it's not about power it's about weight and traction....

lose the 20", sorry but if you're riding a balt you're not ballin' enough to be riding those.. they look nice but have no business on the ss/sc it's meant for speed and such not glitz to each his own but it's not a god idea...IMO

most of the times on this site should be .5 seconds quicker by their traps..... i mean hell you can run a civic si (with a good driver ) to high 14s stock and it's got less HP because they get traction... the balt should be a high 13 low 14 car stock considering it runs 97-99 mph traps stock... and other cars that run that run better times then mid 14s...

Well, I do agree that 4.77 drive ratio and 8300 RPM is respectable in a 2800lb car.

But they are slower than our cars stock...not by much but they are. So you now have 270 or 280 WHP on a RSX...which by rule of thumb...a Cobalt with 270 or 280 WHP should be a smidge faster.

I have 317WHP...that 47WHP more than him if he has 270 and 37WHP more than him if he has 280?? I think he would have a bad day

My 12.05 at 115 trapped horrible as I ran out of juice towards the end (I had been running on the street the day before).

So to beat me from a dig he would have to be in the 11's and to beat me from a roll...well he better still be into the 11's.

Not saying it's not fast or I have the fastest car on the planet...because I certainly don't...but a 280WHP RSX = Decent run...but I don't think thats enough to take down pretty much 320WHP...just my 82 cents.
