What does cd mean? I'm assuming st is street tires.

These times are from the dragstrip forum 1/8th mile first and 1/4 mile second:

1/8th mile:

LE5, STOCK, THE WAY IT IS FROM THE FACTORY

2.)davekicksyourass, 9.614@74.62 w/2.225 60', sedan, Auto, I/E/H/DP/CD/T/SM/ST Timeslip VID

L61/LAP, STOCK, THE WAY IT IS FROM THE FACTORY

L61/LAP, MODDED, (NATURALLY ASPIRATED)
1.) dmoney8187, 9.661@72.78mph, w/2.252 60', coupe, manual, I/H/DP/E/TB/IM/T/WR/SM/ST Timeslip PIC


1/4 mile:

L61/LAP, MODDED, NATURALLY ASPIRATED
1.) removed it was an ION.
2.)dmoney8187, 14.788@93.65, w/2.259 60', coupe, manual, I/H/DP/E/TB/IM/T/WR/SM/ST Timeslip VID
Not that big of a difference...

1/4 mile difference stock - 2 1/2 tenths plus 2 miles per hour. But the 2.4 in the 2nd spot ran less than a tenth slower than a fully bolted 2.2 yet it only had an intake.

It is to also be noted that the 2.4 cars typically weigh more as well.
So take into account the 2.4s running will always have less mods than the 2.2s. Fully bolted the 2.2s can have an intake manifold a throttle body and cams over the 2.4.
Though if you want to compare im sure theres similar modded supercharged or turbocharged 2.2 vs 2.4s we can compare


Now this is all off topic. And honestly NA is fun. But if you want true power the 2.4s like boost.

Again, the times in the drag racing forum were "timed" at different locales and more-than-likely different temperatures. Would be nice to see a 2.2 and 2.4 car (with the same mods) go head-to-head at a dragstrip to get a better idea. I know that I would not have wanted to run my 07 SS/NA against my 06 LS -- the LS was quicker...and it did beat a stock 06 SS/NA in acceleration on the street...twice in a row!
