I call BS.

4psi will not hang with Evo's or staged Cobalt SS's. Either you're running more boost than you think or you're full of it.

198 whp will let you beat a stock cobalt ss, not a modded one. And how a 16g @ 4psi makes those kinds of horsepower numbers is beyond me.

Exactly. A 16psi Cobalt SS is pushing 240+whp and even a stock Evo is more than *that*. I also doubt you beat an 06 WRX (though it's in the realm of possibility, 06 WRX's dyno around 200whp, don't gain crap without engine management, and intake actually loses hp).

A tC with 4psi would probably dyno a little less than 190 to the wheels, best guess. With supporting mods, I can maybe see your claimed power figure, but not your kills. You're probably racing people with their cruise controls on...

First of all do you even own a tC yet alone have you ever even riddin in a boosted tC or mine? probably NOT. I would usually let **** like this go, but how are you gonna try and flame me when you havent ever even seen my car before. I'm gonna try and get a hold of a video camera and try and make me some vids. once I do I'll post the link. That ss cobalt was even double clutching like a mother when we raced.

Yea I own both the tC and the SS/SC, the SS/SC must have been a really crappy driver. Stock mine layed down 230whp...STOCK!

So I'm willing to bet the other person couldnt drive.

with a 16g making 198whp @ 4psi is possible...im boosting 4.9psi and made 222whp/206 ftlbs on a a/t. as far as him beating a cobalt SS i have my doubts...keeping up with the EVO i really doubt...beating the 06 WRX I belive as I have taken one from a roll with an exhuaast leak and at the time untuned. But the Cobalt and Evo I highly doubt. #s I believe.

Thank you for giving me some credit. The #'s are for real and so are the races. the wrx race was from a 40 mph roll, cuz he would have launched on me so hard. the evo I talked to the guy he was on his way back from the dealership he said that he just bought it, but we started racing like @ 70-80 mph and just gunned it he got me by about 1-11/2 cars but we raced until like 120 mph. The guy in the cobalt was around seventeen maybe it was just that he couldnt drive, but it seemed like he was driving the hell out of that thing. If it had appeared to me that any of these guys were not trying their hardest then I would not have even brang them up.

The only time I race on a street is when we go race in the hills on a very long and straight road that was closed off due to flooding. I would never race on a public street/ freeway with innocent drivers around

I didn't flame you. I call it like I see it. And you yourself are claiming about 50whp less than the cars you claim to have beaten. That makes no sense. I don't need to have seen your car before to know another car around the same weight and much more power will blow the doors off you. It's common sense. Even a stock Cobalt SS could be a tough race for you. Running 16psi, no chance.
