Thanks for the welcome. Here's my ride. I'll stick around and pop in from time to time. I'm from the DFWGMElite club.




Regarding the low TQ numbers - The LNF motors on the 08+ turbo cobalts produce gobs of TQ compared to the 05-07 LSJ Supercharged models. They easily make 350+ to the tire. The LSJ cars will almost always be under 300wtq even with a bigger blower. FYI - Tuning is key with this platform. The majority of modded LSJ/LNF cobalts on the road are running canned tunes which SUCK. They really open up when you play with AFR and timing.

If anyone needs more info, i'd be happy to share and help. I know quite a bit about these cars.

Hey Blake! Thanks for stopping by! And I really appreciate the clarification on everything. Hopefully I can maybe make it out to Alliance and we can go at it again.

Those cars weigh in at 2800lbs. I told him on the hwy it'd be a great run and i told him i'd almost bet his car would pull. He said he had ran a best of a 9.0 out at northstar with a 2.4 60' just spinning with terrible wheel hop, but fwd cars not to mention turboed are generally back half cars

That's my buddy Jordan, really good friend of mine. I keep telling him that Northstar is not the greatest track to run, these cars shine in the back half it seems...1/8 just doesn't cut it.

No problem, was good to meet you. Alliance was this past Sunday and was a blast! Just very HOT.

Me and my club are heading to Crandall this Friday for Test and Tune, 7PM to midnight, if it isn't raining. Anyone on here going out?
