Hahn '08 Cobalt SS Turbo 13.2 @ 104

[shucky]

This just in from my old friend Bill Hahn. Car has reflash and catback exhaust. You can hear the factory launch control, it seems the business and it launches hard on this run.

[Hyun]

Awesome!~

 

[controlo]

bad ass. good job chevy!

 

[gtlaw]

it is not going to be fun having to eat humble pie after lining up next to a cavalier

I wonder how a GXP would run with that same tune?

 

[itzl0l]

not bad....i trap 104 with an intake and vibrant exhaust. Need a downpipe

 

[dkswim]

thats cool.

I wonder how a GXP would run with that same tune?

+1. i guess if we really wanted to, we could pull the: "it's still a cavalier" card.
(rei)

 

[stockms3]

wow that's impressive really....

On a side note IN MY OPINION COBALT IS a ugly car, I would feel like driving one of the enterprise cars whenever my car is at the dealership lol.

No attacks please! I said MY OPINION like ass everyone is got his own

at 22psi i would hope it would run that..

 

[Super Unique]

I would be curious to know what his times were like when the car was totally stock. Would answer quite a few questions for me personally.

Granted, I personally can't even fit in one, but you have to give chevy some props for unleashing such a quick compact. The question of can they compete has been answered with a resounding yes.

let the fanboyism commence

at 22psi i would hope it would run that..

so this run was at 22psi? if that's true, it's not as impressive at all. still cool, just not impressive. (uhm)

Yeah, and they can still pull the "it's still a Mazda3" card also. (burnout)

 

[boostdog]

very nice...guys you need to remember that 22 psi on 1 turbo is not the same as 22 psi on another. You need to compare compressor maps to get a better idea of how the turbo is doing and making power...one thing does anyone know what tuning software they are using, because i thought the ss/tc's ecu would pull power at redline to stock hp/tq #'s...?

 

[koston33]

I wouldn't mind a tune like that

 

[shucky]

The car has a reflash using the BSR PPC tuner (which is like the Cobb AP). With the reflash it dyno'd 289 whp. I dont know where 22 psi came from but nowhere is psi mentioned, nor is it quoted on Hahn's site. For a reflash and catback that is DAMN impressive. Their plan is high 11's on street radials. Although I'm not a fan of the car itself, my MS3 is more practical for me, it is pretty badass. Highest mph of that night was 105. The launch control is greatly helping with lower e.t.'s. 60' ft on the 13.2 run was 2.0 on stock radials. Remember, having a pioneer in turbocharging like Bill Hahn himself taking on a new DI platform is exciting for everyone. Products and technology developed on this platform will only help anyone running a DI vehicle.

If you've ever driven or ridden in a cobalt, it's an econobox that they threw a more powerful engine into. Still ugly and uncomfortable, IMO.

Besides, a tune and upping boost (what he did) can get our cars going like that no problem

 

[Bu11dogg2]

Pretty Cool

 

[GoFast]

the big deal is that the cobalt ran a pretty good time! im sure there are a ton of cobalt ss owners that are happier than a pig in s*** because of the potential their car has now.

it cracks me up that so many ms3 owners get all upset when somebody else says something bad about the ms3 and calls it an econobox or whatever but then so many turn around and say the same stuff about the cobalt ss.

oh well, welcome to the internet. lol

i just hope that ms3 owners dont obtain the same negative image as the srt enthusiasts, because if we do ill almost be embarrassed to drive the ms3
