how fast can a cobalt SS be?
Whats the average 1/4 mile range for a mild cobalt SS? im talking one with at least an exhaust, and maybe intake, tune and possibly a smaller pulley... im not really sure what else is available for those cars.
is it unexpected for one of them to be low 13's or so?

The Cobalt SSs are all supercharged, no turbo.
They're not all that fast. high 14s maybe with a little work.

The new turbo ones are quick, (at least feel quick) up to 50 ish. I think they trap around 100 on a good day.

A quick search just showed approximately 14.0 @ 100-103 stock, so low-mid 13s is not out of the question at all with a decent driver.

Wrong on both accounts.
As Paul said, new SS's are turbo Ecotec's. And depends on the driver obviously, but I believe the s/c'd ones run at worst mid 14s, mostly 14.1-2ish. Turbo's are ~.3-5 sec quicker I believe. Stock.

Opps, didn't know about the new ones being turbo. I guess the ones I saw at the track have the bad driver mod too.

Yup. 2.0 turbo. I personally know someone with a stock coupe that ran 13.8@101. He's an awesome driver but thats pretty impressive i think.

The 05-07 supercharged models w/ a pulley swap and supporting mods trap around 106-108 and run mid to lower 13's...It will take meth inj.,nos,engine work to get them quicker then that though. The 08-09 turbocharged cars have 40 more hp stock, and look to run in the low 13's w/ and intake,catback and tune.
