I read through the 6 pages of bullshit here, and MOST of the posts were done by NON-2.2 owners just ******* the 2.2 ecotec. I stayed away from posting here, but since one or two have chimed in I might as well.
This is suppsoed to be a community of like-minded car owners, who help eachother out and enjoy modding their cars.... No matter what engine it is equipped with.
I hardly see that here at all anymore. Every thread, I mean almost every single ******* thread in the 2.2 section is over-run with ss owners and their infinite wisdom. Yes....Brandon97z and his "oh so fast 2.4" are sure to come back with some "witty" remark about how I am somehow "sensitive" about my car.....whatever.
Its amazing how people grow these big, HUGE ***** behind the safety of the internet.... But what is even more amazing is how much time the "superior" SS owners spend in the L61 section.
The 2.2 Is just fine in its class....and In its class I mean price point. It is just as fast/reliable/fun to drive/quiet/advanced as any of the other cars by any manufacturer in this price point.
Not everyone who bought a 2.2 wanted a 2.4 or 2.0FI. Some people have the money to buy a faster car, but choose to spend it elswhere, and occasionally mod their 2.2. Why is that so difficult to wrap your mind around?
Back to the O.P. now.....who is probably in LOVE with CSS.net at this point. Did you change your fuel filter like a few suggested? Clean/replace your air filter? If your car has suddenly lost power, something has changed. Could even be a tank of shitty gas.

+1 but its really shitty that this what an "enthusiast" website has become.
A lack of power can happen to anything...a SS/TC a 2.4/2.2, a boat, ******* lawnmower or weedeater...why can't anyone try to help the guy out?

[QUOTE=Kodatech;3984954]Yes....Brandon97z and his "oh so fast 2.4" QUOTE]
Why does everyone say this like its supposed to discredit anything i've said? Show me where i said my car is fast? I just want people to be realistic about the car they drive.

You need to learn how to read. The OP didn't ask why his car keeps getting wasted by Corvettes and Mustang GTs. He said he has a lack of power.
And for the simpletons here who don't know what that means, here it is so you can understand:
He has a lack of power, compared to what he had before!!!!!
When he got his car it felt like he had "X amount of power"...now he has less than "X".
Grow up and come back to class when you have something intelligent to add. Untill then, try not to crash with all that power.
Get used to it man. This is what CSS is all about.

This thread was over after the first page i didn't join until page 4. I simply made a comment about someone(not even the op) being defensive. Come back after you clean that sand out of your vag and pull the stick out of your ass.

i'm still sticking with my original theory. op had a slower car before his ls or lt or whatever. so his cobalt felt pretty fast. the then drove it for a lonnnnng amount of time. inwhich he got used to it. so it no longer "feels" fast, but is infact just as fast as when he first bought it.
