cabalt SS are very fast and nice cars, if you think otherwise your crazy.
a stock cobalt SS/SC will run mid-high 14s all day if you can drive it. like i said already my friend has one with only a downpipe with no cat, and a muffler and he went 14.2. the engines are very technically advaced, its like a honda's V TEC engine but way more advanced, its a 4 cyl that can beat a mustang GT, and pull off high 30s MPG. my friend has even seen 40. GM really did it nice with those cars. the only reason i wouldnt like one is because of front wheel drive, easy to break axles, and axles are very expensive to upgrade to handle more power. my other friends cobalt runs 12s with minor work done, if you dont think thats impressive for a 4 cyl to run as fast as a DOHC V8 with a blower, your crazy.

Kman, the gt exhaust itself is 2.25", so i think youre correct on the 2.25" inlet. i think my tips 3", but my exhaust is 2.5". 3" doesnt even look that big either
Shaun, how did it go??
