Thats weird......they run only 200hp at the crank. I raped at least 2 when I had my fully bolted Altima, both times from a roll. Sure he wasnt spraying a 50 shot or something. Bolt-ons are not going to bring that car up to 260 at the wheels............
ok first of all u need to get ur fact straights those cars do not output 200hp to the crank in fact the output around 210hp to the wheels stock. Full bolt ons + meth i can see them making 260hp at wheels. How much did you altima weight?

I found this off a site that sells the supercharger for the ION & Cobalts, so a stage 2 with exhaust & bolt-on's and who knows what else is no joke.

While the LSJ Ecotec engine is rated at 205hp at 5,600rpm and 200 lb-ft of torque at 4,400rpm, the Staged kits bump the power considerably. The Stage One kit raises the horsepower and torque output to 230 hp at 6,800rpm and 200 lb-ft at 5,600rpm. Even better, the Stage Two kit puts out 241 hp at 6,400rpm and 218 lb-ft at 5,400rpm.

Don't forget about the bumped 7K redline.And that Stage 2 rating is still on the restrictive exhaust/intake.[:'(]

wow from an ion that sucks. but i guess cars are changing alot for an ion to be sporty. I don't understand how he got that many car lengths on you after 3rd though..?
I didn't mean after 3rd gear, I meant when I let off . I was already in 4th at about 110mph when he had 6-8 cars on me.

he was at the end of 3rd, he was at a stronger point for his car imo new edges seem to fall of hard up top.

The cool thing is without the wing no one would have a clue what they were running against, if you're into that sort of thing.[8D]There was a cobolt ss at the strip tonight and he was embarassingmost ofthe sti and srt4 guys. This thing was running 13 flat with full bolt ons and a tune.
