Re: cobalt SS sc or srt-4???

Ok enough reading the sex talk by virgins (joking) and back to the subject. I think I remember the cobalt winning in one catagorey but i don't remember which. Other than that the RSX type S and SRT tore up the cobalt!

Re: cobalt SS sc or srt-4???

i agree and whoever said they would spank the SRT-4 with a mini cooper is a joke...lol the SRT has 50+ more WHP thent he mini and isnt that much lighter then the SRT either...god look up stats before you make dumb comments

and the SRT makes about 197829481 TurtlePower... about 197829172 WTP (wheel TurtlePower)? lol

That's pathetic considering z24's put out 10hp less (not much) on a n/a engine.

Re: cobalt SS sc or srt-4???

well if you are still deciding on what to buy, get a Toyota Supra single turbo, they are chhep and make GOOD hp. I had a 87 Toyota supra trubo 5 speed and with a bigger intercooler,boost controler,exhaust and a bigger down pipe i was making over 300hp!!! fast little thing. The single turbo are from 87-93 i think, it may be 92, not quite shure. But the 3.0 in them is a inline 6 that will run forever!! The 300gt vr4's are fast and nice also!! Now if you want a car with real power get a 02 ws6 t/a!!!

Re: cobalt SS sc or srt-4???

I had mentioned getting a MiniCooper S because I think it would be faster on the track. 0-60 times mean nothing to me. I want to see how well the car does on a track. So I figured the 160hp would be enough to get the mini going pretty fast since it is a bit lighter. And I'm sure it does better in the corners. So I guess I should have used a better term than spank. I'd still take the Mini though, its built better than SRT-4 and Chevy. And it would corner better. The other thing you guys have to keep in mind the mini is supercharged, all the boost is always at max at any given rpm. So with the mini being ligher, and making more hp at lower rpms, it would get off the line pretty fast, but then a SRT-4 would prolly catch it. IMO Supercharged is the way to go.

Re: cobalt SS sc or srt-4???

Who needs cornering? Most of the racing I'm sure he'll be doing is on a strip. And I'm sorry but Srt4 215hp / Mini Cooper S 160hp? Please, there's no contest there, I dont give a damn how much lighter the Cooper is, I should be smacked for even thinking about comparing the two.

I recently raced a mini cooper s at the trck (1/4) and I can say that the mini has alot of low end but in the whole it is not that great. coming off of the line he took me by about half a car length but I beat him by the time i hit third going into fourth.
