I want to know who has the fastest 2.4 automatic and whos gonna be boosting or not and what are ur plans in the future..b/c i cant make it up my mine if i wanna keep the 2.4 and supercharged it or move on and get a 2.0 ss/sc in the spring and learn to drive it

 

Manuals are so much more rewarding once learned to be driven at 10/10ths.


If it is a car it HAS to be a manual for me, driving stick is not hard at all...i say get the LSJ

 

learn manual, thats what im doing just have to get a car that is... but yeah manual Cobalts are very very nice.

 

nothing wrong with manual..but for a 2.4 auto is better for boosting b/c the clutch in the 2.4 sucks and upgrading it is 1000 bucks untop of the cost.

stick with ur 2.4 man, i had the decision to switch to a LSJ and take a hit on my car but i didnt and im really glad i didnt. id rather spend 2gs in my car, make it supercharged and have a faster car then a stock lsj and be different..just my 2 cents

 

i heard da 2.0 is jumpy in 1st gear and my grl didnt like how it drove but she only got to drive it down the street in target parking lot and back into the dealer..my grl agreed with me and she said she teach me again and shes down getting one in srping and i have neg equity paid of by then

 

man reading ur mods in ur sig u should be just as quick if not quicker then a stock ss/sc, they jump like mad in 1st and parts of 2nd...id keep ur 2.4 dude

 

u think?

 

How is his Cobalt running a 14.5 with those mods?

After driving both, the SS/SC is just like the SS/NA only the SS/SC is faster...that is it...i mean in reality the gears are longer, but you have about 50 more whp...

 

i agree the ss/sc is faster..consider my sister owns one and i drive it daily i can agree..but a stock ss/sc runs roughly 14.7 and traps roughly 101 MPH.

i ran a 15.46 and traped 86 stock..with my SRI i traped 95..with the header/dp combo, bigger injectors and tune ill be in the 14's...

+ ALOT of people on the road who own a ss/sc dont know how to drive their car..i wouldnt doubt with his mods he could find a few ss/sc's that he would rape..

 

thats a big boost of confidensce now lol

 

Um, I wouldn't say rape.


Eek out yes but rape wouldn't be what I say.


And to the OP the SS/SC isn't the godsend of cars...they aren't that much faster than us, wait a little bit for the LE5 to get more support because people with regular solstices will want to have an aftermarket...

 

lol its true..ss/sc suffer from terrible wheel hop (considering they havnt modded it out to the **** in traction mods) the supercharger createts to much low end horsepower, sure i know tons of us on css.net know how to drive their ss/sc but i KNOW for a fact tons of ss/sc's on the road cant drive...

jimmy ur kind of maxed out on mods without going to forced induction, u could go to cams but..wont add much..id focus on some traction mods and i promise u with a driver mod u have a 14's car...or nos that baby

i agree rape was the wrong word to use..

that brings up another point..wit hthe LNF coming out im sure the aftermarket for the LSJ will slow down, also the LE5 is still being used...so the aftermarket can just increase..

 

It is only a matter of time before the LE5 gets all kinds of goodies...it is in so many cars...

 

true that..i just wonder what else they could add haha...

 

i hope soon...i have some parts including the m62 at home..but the time to getted installed and time its seems beck and pjk91 put alot of tme and i dont have that time..i know i can get a tranny tune and 34ibs injectors and thats basically it besides f/i and i dont want NOS lol

 

VVT controllers, cams/complete LE5 only head jobs, different final drive gears, higher compression pistons, etc.

The only thing that makes me wary about F/I on our cars is its high compression.

 

trudat..forgot about vvt controls..good thinking

drive ur car to winnipeg ill install the supercharger for u lol

 

hahaha..dont know how to get there.. lol..

 

just drive north till u see the first igiloo and a moose..then uve hit canada

 

ANd see if the only beer on tap is LaBatt's, Molsen, and Moosehead

 

yeah..thats manitoba for ya haha!

 

hahaha

 

Molsen FTW

 

but yeah man..weve all had thought of different cars we would want to get really badly..hell 2 days ago i wanted a skyline super bad..before that a supra haha..i regret my car everytime but at the same time..i love it..its just human nature..theres always gonna be something nicer and faster then your car, just enjoy what you got..drive ur car longer build some nice equity in it and sell it down the road..for now..just keep enjoying it and have fun with it.

 

any idea..where can i get a cavi harness for my 34# injectors
