TRACStar Posted October 12, 2005 Report Share Posted October 12, 2005 I beat a stock cobalt ss 2 weeks ago. He pulled a half a car on me off the line, then he had to shift....I still had 2500rpms to go. Pulled a half car ahead of him by the end of first. I hit second and it was over(second gear after chipping is incredible). By the time I hit 70 he was at least 4-5 cars behind me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asinine Posted October 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 I'm gonna put this out here for some flaming, but unless you've done it you don't know.There is no way a stock 850T or S/V70 T5 could beat a stock supercharged SS. That car is something like 205hp with a awesome 2nd gear - it's an auto car, powerbrake and mash the pedal, racing for dummies.We raced in line down a back road up to 210kms (although my speedo was only saying 180) and he didn't pull much on me, but was pulling me.That's a quick little cav, we may have quick bricks, but not that quick.HOWEVER, i am confident that if i get my chip before he gets stage 2 then i'll have no problems ruining him, and i'm very anxious to feel the chipped 2nd gear difference :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maiku Posted October 13, 2005 Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 SC's only work to a certain extend (i though)mostly in the low endturbo should take it up top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asinine Posted October 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2005 Isn't a SC spooled off of the accessory belt or whatever, so as the revs increase so will the amount of pressure it creats?The rule of thumb i know is "superchargers make little engines feel big". Bottom line, thats a faster car stock than ours stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G-Mick Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 I've been beaten by one... kinda.I meged onto the highway after gunning it and pulled right behind him, he thought I pulled to close and he SLAMMED the brakes and I almost ploughed right into him (I think he meant to tap, new car - easy mistake)Anyway he then gunned it and so did I but later, and after heavier braking. Never caught up.- G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
