Click the pic to check it out!

This is the newest addition to our development fleet...a brand-new Cobalt SS Turbo! Same engine as Redline, but in a FWD coupe.

The 13.2 second ET was achieved on stock tires, with just a PPC Tune and Hahn 3" CatBack Exhaust.

Be sure to check the videos too!

So what is the scoop Bill? Are they lighter, more aerodynamic, less drag in front wheel driveline? You don't see any GXP/Redline manuals running near that good. What is the Cobalt secret?

WTF??? Why are they so fast???

cause you only lose like 15hp to the wheels plus over a hundred pounds lighter due to no rwd transmission and rear end weight. i could run a 14.7 with my 200hp s/c ion redline, but thats mainly cause i suck at launching. plus the turbo is hella good in top end and the s/c is only good in low end, so if you can get off the line good your set for a good time.

Thats pretty sweet.... Is that equipped with the No Lift Shift?

The bigger and better question, is the intercooler (stock or aftermarket) going to be the same size for the Cobalt and the Sky?

Well, THIS Cobalt's secret is...me, for one thing

But yes, the car's a bit lighter, and has less driveline loss too.

Get me in a GXP or RL with similar mods and the apparent gap will close. Pardon me for being a braggart, but I have some skills!

We are in the process of developing our Cobalt SS/TC intercooler as I speak.

The stock unit is much bigger than the GXP/RL stock intercooler. Naturally, our replacement will be typically large too!
