How long do you think it will for a cobalt to break in the 12's? By the end of the year?

im thinking mid summer easy.. but im fine with the 148 mph top out.. ill never take mine that fast unless i feel like makin some extra money on the side and u wont ever hit 148 in a 1/4 anyway maybe 111 or around there but not 148

 

[actionjackson]

I dunno. It all depends on the driver.

 

[KSE]

.........never

RL's been out for HOW LONG ALREADY????

you think they'll have GOOD ENOUGH mods out by the end of this YEAR?

Within a year and a half from now... just a guesstimate bein that the RL now has products in development that will work for the SS

yes but remember the RL has no aftermarket support, and now the SS is starting to get companies to develop for it.
The SS will see 12s in no time


hell if you really wanted just slap in a 150 shot of nitrous and youre all set

 

[CoBIZZLE]

Yeah and blow the engine! I dont think the SS will handle that much of a shot of nitrous. It already has a high compresion ratio to deal with, I think that would just strain it too much.

But then again I've never dealt w/ nitrous. I do know that Chevy High Performance mag blew a head clean off an Ecotec Cavy w/ just a 75shot. They hit it at too low of an RPM. It runs fine now cause they have a msd ign setup that turns it on at like 3000 or so.

How long to get a car in the 12s? How about get a car PERIOD?! People are still waiting 3 months to get the damn things! You think somehow I can get my order form into the 12s?!

 

[87camaroPA]

I think Cobalt's will be seeing 12's next year some time but it is to soon for the car and there is not alot out yet for the SS.

The problem with the after market for the Redline is that GM only produced approx. 2400 for 2004 and scheduled another 5000 for 05. When we (the redline owners) talk to the big companies they say that there's just not enough demand with those small production numbers to make parts.

That's where the Cobalt comes in. We're just waiting for the developers to come out with their cobalt parts and then we'll pop them on the RL. Pretty shitty but it's what we're going to have to do IMO.

Well that sucks but you guys (Redline owners) have had a chance to enjoy your cars were we have to wait an increably long time for our cars because Chevy is dicking around.

 

[CoBIZZLE]

I think there will eventually be a decent aftermarket for the SS AND the RL! We'll all help each other out and we'll ALL blast twelve's! Oh and I've seen a Cobalt ALREADY that hits 12's!! It is a girl but I'm not sure if its an SS or not?!?! Might be usin parts from earlier Cavy's on her engine, not sure, I'll look for the sight again.

 

[CoBIZZLE]

Here it is:
12 sec. Cobalt - Phase 5 program car
Oh yeah and its a 2.2L

It's a drag car though, not a professional one (she's not runnin 7's) mind you but it has a roll cage!

Holy crap. That is awsome. O well my guess was way off.

 

[CoBIZZLE]

Yeah mine too! I was like WHAT!!! She says on her website that she was the SECOND Phase 5 Cobalt.

 

[CoBIZZLE]

But you cant really count her as bein the first Cobalt into the 12's cause then you'd have to count the REAL PRO's runnin 7's!! And trust me I highly dout her car is streetable!!!

Yeah i dont think it is. But are we saying first street leagal car to get 12s?

 

[SRT4FURY]

About a year for a street legal everyday car. I heard GM will be releasing its performance parts about a year after the Cobalt SS hits the streets in good numbers.

 

[CoBIZZLE]

Well if thats true, then that'll be cool I guess. How long did it take Mopar to release stuff for the SRT's?

Oh and about Vin Diesel doin sequels... what about Pitch Black and Chronicles of Riddick? Sorry had to...

Never! Never!
