Talking Cobalt Sc Vs Acura Rsx-s (vids)

Let's see what you guys think about the following videos. I personally like his car, it's freaking fast. Got to love those k20. We did couple of pulls before he does more work to his car. It's one hell of a project........his going all motor!!!!!!!!
Any idea what would it take to keep up?


Mods:
Cobalt Sc - in my sig
Acura Rsx-s - Full bolt ons, LSD, Kpro

Those were close runs. Hoesntly a better tune would net you better and you would pull harder on him. The sc had more power in those vids. I would beat those cars easy when i had the 2.8 on my car.

They are fast and no joke though

Wait I looked at your mods wrong. Exhaust is holding you back

Rcorona's tune is by no means a push over 2.8 tune.

He has a bit of restriction though: STOCK DP, 2.25 gmpp catback
I think he takes it to 9k when he races.

well, that doesn't tell me anything really. What was his trap speed?

14.2/14.7, either way, it still leaves a big question mark on why the hell didn't that cobalt pull away............I say spray

-----------------------------------------------------------------

does anyone know what his real mods are? Other than "full bolt ons", like what is his actual mod list.

that's exactly what we "non-believers" are trying to say. Not trying to take anything away from the honda, but the cobalt should definitely have pulled harder than that. Shouldn't really have been much of a contest.
