My 2.4 purrs like a kitty...til you open it up. Then it sounds like a bobcat that's about to rip your face off.
Words of my SRT-10-driving mechanic. I figure coming from a guy in a V10, that has to mean something, haha.

Wicked. I was happy with my 165/164. Can't imagine how nice 390 feels.
Doing some searching for a faster ride. Not really looking to buy this summer, but getting price ideas. I really want that Regal GS, but 30k is prolly too high for right out of college, even with a trade in and down payment. Like this STi, though I'd rather buy from the "General". Any thoughts? M next car needs to be awd. Our roads never get plowed in winter.

MEH. couldnt break my 264 that I hit last fall. Car just doesnt like me anymore
The Turbo SS cars were tearin it up. 300whp and 350wtq never looked so easy.
We had no TVS cars this time. But we did have a 1989 Turbo Dodge Caravan that put down 150whp and 230ish torque, and a S/C'd Celica GTS that put down 242whp.
Fun time. Nobody hit the concrete slab in the parking lot
We didnt get done til about 930pm... long ass day for those guys. Gotta give them props for putting up with our long ass cool downs.

I was really UPSET with my Blue Mini Van's numbers.
We only did two pulls as the the A/F went to 10.0
(which is as rich as the machine can read)
and it stayed there all the way to 5200 rpm.
It still managed to pull 158.8 fwhp & 244.3 fwtq.
Boost was at 14 psi running a Garrett T2 (40mm trim) turbo and a T2 I/C.
I really was looking to get between 185 & 200 fwhp.
I will be picking up a fuel pressure gauge today and an Innovate Wide Band and I will also be adding an Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator.
Once I get all of that installed and set correctly, I will take the Mini Van back to the dyno to try it again.
All in all, I had a good time meeting you guys, and I was impressed with the numbers that the Cobalts put down.
