u guys are funny.. you do know that the cobalt was stock and the civic had a few bold ons... y not race stock for stock then see the honda get its ass whiped

[xnbastar1669]

probably because we didn't just have a stock Si sitting around. The Si had a grand total of 2 simple bolt-ons, 2 friends raced, one lost and one won end of story.

P.S. - stock vs stock it's a driver's race

[xnbastar1669]

it's a bone stock s/c ss, end of discussion. your not going to hear the stock s/c with stock intake over an intake/catless header civic at 8200 rpm with a camera hanging out the window with the wind

you can say the same thing about the 335i vs the g37, its only faster because of its twin turbos, but $ for $ it will still make more power, unless you want to put down some serious cash, but any car can be made fast with enough $. same goes with the ss/sc, all it needs is 1500-2000$ for 290-300 whp and 300+ wtq. the si has a great engine, but because of the high compression ratio it can't handle high boost, the cobalt's engine can

@esplen2t try but with my few bolt ons i walk the si all day

@silvertib99

lol dude, the fucking Cobalt comes stock With a Sc, so if anything its a B.S stock car and the SI still took it with two cheap bolt ons.

@bergaflickal trust me(or not) there's plenty of good drivers that hit mid 14's bones stock....launching the car is the hard part,the rest is just quick shifting.You also have to look at where these guys are testing the cars at...let them come to Ennis tx which is a fast track and you'll see the real potential.I believe one guy actually hit a 14.3 stock...on crappy all seasons with the grip of a plastic wheel.

@Arayanrevenge i dont see ne videos on youtube and the lowest was 14.9 by motortrend edmunds car and driver road and track ran between 15.0 and 15.2..maybe you had a ringer

[Arayanrevenge]

@bergaflickal completely stock down to the tires.It is a hard car to launch but after learning a trick to it I cut my 60 fts way down(fom what they were).There are videos on youtube I'm sure...most certainly I remember seeing them when I was on an 8th gen website( no longer a member there).

@boomboombow19 if you takew the supercharger off then your talking about 4 grand difference in price comparison

[bergaflickal]

@Arayanrevenge video?....the best ive seen the newer body style si hit is 14.9 and only once...were talking completely stock right no exhaust cai etc?

[Arayanrevenge]

@bergaflickal then they are'nt that great at driving...quite a few ppl get them into the mid 14's...even on the abismal all season tires they come with.I was getting into the high 14's with literally no experience drving manual(my Si is my first manual car)
