And to say it cant handle more than 3-4 lbs is ludacris. some are only pushing that much and some are pushing much more. I think NxtGeneration Motorsports which does alot of tibby work is pushing the 600HP mark(though not on stock internals) and 600HP really is nothing to bawk at

No, I will not have a 600HP car, that would be one of NGM's cars, and yes I am well aware of what it took to get there, and its a HELL of a lot of money.
http://s65.photobucket.com/albums/h2...urrent=ngm.flv is a video of an MP90
On the left of this pic is the 62 series, on the right, is what phlashie has http://www.oktibs.com/ngm/ngm.mp62.mp90.jpg
As far as alot of people having the mp62 charger, yeah alot of them do, because alpine was the only company making FI for our cars for a long time(long before RIPP and NGM) and they would hold your factory drivetrain warrenty but they only put out like 3lbs of boost. You really should do some reading before you go shooting off your mouth....You asked for proof and THERE IT IS. Im not here to cause trouble in your thread, im completely unbiased against the SS...its a great car, and GM finally got something right after so many years of horrible designs. But you think you have the end all win all car because you can run a mid to high 14 stock. What do you think im running NA right now? Lower than that bud........

do you have any slips? there arent really too many tib's around, but i have raced one with i/h/e and tune and taken him and i just dont see low 14's from that.....
#56
Sadly no, i did have some that I was keeping in my car until we moved into our new house and i got my scanner hooked back up, but my little brother unknowingly sucked them up with the shop vac as he was detailing my car for 20 bucks. I would have gone to get some new ones tonight, but the track here in STL is closed for the winter.(DAMN YOU GATEWAY!!!) the last slips I had I couldnt get out of the 15's anyway, i think its cause of my alignment and these crappy tires im using...i was trapping at high 96MPH on a 2.6 sec 60' time

i know malogus(thats his user name on www.newtiburon.com) is running like 14.1 in Phoenix(which is alot hotter than here, he does have a few more mods than I do, but the track can play a part too as you probably know...its not just you that was disbelieving, its alot of people that think their car is just the best out there, and its not, mines not, yours isnt, its all a matter of personal opinion and some people are all pissy that someone else loves their car as much as they love their own, and cant figure out why...personal preference...my car is quick, i love it, and its good enough for the girls I go out with

Now he tells me he is going to get a Ford Focus SVT and I better watch out, because they are faster then my SS/SC.
Like I said in the past, I don't hate on anyone, not even my brother for trying, but please a Focus SVT.

no, they dont, they unerestimate the SS/SC...they know the base cobalts are slower than *****.....and tell your brother get ready to drop at least 3 grand if he wants to run with a STOCK ss/sc and that is coming from an owner who has pulled the engine, and did all his own work, and has been an owner for 4 years now.

Phlash go find a hyundai_tibby_gt.net/weak stock internals cant handle a blower and ake your BS else where
#62
I have a question, can someone tell me why if this is COBALTss.net why is that we have other makes and makes like Hyundai on here? Thats like me registering a Civic on a Corvette forum.....

the fact of the matter is that this is a cobalt forum. not a civic, focus, neon, or tiburon forum. so to come on cobalt forum and say that your car (non-cobalt)is better and this and that, and talk crap about our cars (cobalts) is really ignorant and idiotic. oh and by the way, i drive an 06 cobalt ls 5spd and i smoked the hell out of a tiburon gt v6 manual, when i was completely stock.

it's pretty obvious why half of you know nothing about other cars on the market and think yours are the fastest out there...you just can't accept what anyone that doesn't own a cobalt says. and half of you don't have the mechanical knowledge to change your oil, so without some of us you guys would be lost.

i do know alot about other cars on the market and i have the mechanical knowledge to do alot of things myself. i know my car isnt the fastest out there. he said that the base cobalts are slow as *****, so i said that i beat a gt v6 tiburon when i first got my car. that was actually my first race in my cobalt. i do know for a fact that tiburons are very restricted (have you seen the size of their exhaust piping?), a buddy of mine has one and he has told me of all the things he could do to his car and what the gains will be, it is a shame that they are that restricted. now i wasn't directing all my comments to him, i was just saying in general that it is very ignorant and stupid to come on another car's forum and talk smack.

why? because you only ran a 14.9? and someone called you on your bs? the reason there are other people is because perhaps i just dont own the tiburon. what if i owned a cobalt ss/sc as well, or what if my wife drove a cobalt. You need to stop being a little young punk and grow up. If you act like you do online like you do in the real world, you're going to end up shot....Please for the same of humanity have some common sense, and realise it doesnt matter why there are other makes and models on here. its a public forum. and until myself or another member who drives another make or model says/posts something that is against forum rules: WE ARE MORE THAN WELCOME HERE.
My Z24, with intake and exhaust that was only running 15.8's still beat a GT V6.
My SS that is capable of running low 14's once I get dialed in destroyed a GT V6 and for you to come on here bashing our platform of cars is wrong of you. So what if your wife drives a cobalt but you say nothing of YOU driving either a Cobalt or Ion regardless of Model.
#71
OK by no means and I even going to TRY and be a internet tough guy about this one, but Phlash, you dont know squat about me and I guarantee you that I have done more in my life than you have, so retract your "young punk" statement. and about my 14.9 that I ran, poor track, poor weather, and that was my first time on the track ,with my SS that is bone stock, in over since months since my Z24 that I had prior to this.

actually i think the saleen comes with a 100 shot doesn't it? that thing is actually pretty quick on the juice, but it is totally riced out, and the warranty dissapears as soon as you use the spray.
