Friendly run, i know the cobalt is faster then that... it was the drivers first time at the track with the car

dont they run 14.4 or something like that stock?

an0malous

capable of 14.0 stock.
but quoting peak times is a waste of everyones time

in the real world
14.4 would be a good to above average time for an ss/sc

15.2 is definately on the "driver needs work" side of things

what kind of altitude is that track at?

f_399

i have no idea lol

its texas, cant be that high

danm 15.2...uhmmm needs alot of pratice...but good run by the vw

an0malous

500ft

yeah definately needs some practice. though in truth alot of new drivers run 15s for the first few runs.
nothin to be ashamed of.

and you automatically get big props from me for taking it to the right place.
and doing it safe, and smart.

good stuff.

ok makes sense, because last i checked we couldn't chip an OBD II pcm

f_399

yeah i guess the old-timers called it chip and thats what we still call it lol

basically attach a laptop to the car and upload the new software... takes 5 minutes

a chip on any german car is new software added or updated to the existing ecu to boost the cars performance

BigTizzle903

you can still chip the new volkwagens. its like a tune, but without a laptop, just plug in the new chip

a friend of mine bought a chip at waterfest

f_399

a bad/unexperienced driver can make any car slow

Super_SS

wow, i learn something new everyday on this forum. so can you make adjustments to the chip? like afr's or timing.

HAHA you got burnt. First time i went i ran a 15.1. stock i got down to a 14.5, thats after only 5 runs. Anyways, doing the track tommorrow, I plan to run below my 13.9, considering stickier tires and exhaust.

I shouldn't be laughing.. I ran a 16.7 YEARS ago in my supercharged Sunfire.
