the cobalt's are better looking IMO then the srt's. Sounds like they're decent performance wise.

I just enconted a cobalt ss with only 106 miles i ask the guy if he would race me and he said friday so i guess its gonna be on. He told me he easily went 140 in it on the freeway and he just got it today. He also told me his friend with the blue one i have seen in town bought a computer that upgraded the hp to 290 but i dont think i believed him. If i race him this friday i will let you guys know what happens! I am boosted 8 psi sf kit

those are only 205 hp with supercharger, thats at the flywheel. Maybe 170-80 to the wheels?

srt's have been dynoing roughly their advertised crank HP to the wheels. so cobalt could be around 200whp too, esp. if it's trapping about 100mph

To tell you the truth the guy floored it a couple times and didn't look as fast as an srt 4 the little cobalt smoked the tires but it did look like it was too fast but hopefully this friday i will race him

they have been dyno'ing with 215 to the WHEELS. so it's likely the cobalt is underrated is is really making 250 at the engine.
