@atomicshark That is it right there... I remembered getting my Cobalt new, and wondering where the boat anchor was attached. It started to get peppy around 30k. My brother's Cobalt sedan feels a lot quicker on the lows and mids to my coupe. He has 95k miles on his. I have driven many times, and wondered why his was so much more responsive on the lows and mids. I watch all these vids of 8-9 second runs and wonder why some are much slower than your Cobalt. I am sure these motors need broken in.

Mike85220 commented on 06 Oct 2010

@Mike85220 Someone on the Cobalt forum said the computer program does not allow for spirited driving until it hit a certain mileage as there was a breaking-in period. I cannot vouche for this at all. Another said they put these motors together with tight tolerances. Once they loosen up they start to get a little quicker. I cannot say this is the reason for certain, but everytime a low mileage Cobalt videos a 0-60 run, they hit 60 around 9 seconds, not 8 like yours. That is a big difference.

DOHCCordia commented on 15 May 2011

@mustangmikeca have you seen how bad the plastic looks in the 2012 civic? The magazines are saying a hyundai looks better. Dont think you have much room to talk. And btw a 2.2 (H22) in stock condition just barely edges my dd out (sad considering my cobalts an auto 2.4) Now an H23 5spd with exhaust and intake I edge out by a car and a half at 90. So bring your sisters hand me down car (your car) out and see how your shit talking mouth does against an auto cobalt (it really sad you wont win)

DOHCCordia commented on 14 May 2011

@mustangmikeca Seeing as how your profile has an auto civics video Id say the only thing pathetic is that even if its a 5spd it doesnt change the fact youd still lose. Just makes it a slightly closer race. So your pathetic attempt at putting down a car faster than yours is pure FAIL. But its amusing that you keep trying. Its like a ricer flyby that gets denied over and over. Tell you what. If your ever near stl chicago or kansas city I will race you in my auto cobalt (daily driver).

@mustangmikeca this ISNT MY CAR in this video, your internet reputation and all around coolness factor has been reduced by -10 points for attacking someone who isnt the author of the preceeding video... my car goes .2seconds faster than this so called for-mentioned civic so.... BOO YEA BITCH! my internet greatness rating has been boosted by +5 points for responding to said random comment and turning this into a "who can pee the furthest" contest OWNED ROOKIE JUST ROLLED KID!

rmf09020 commented on 16 May 2010

@Edgarwinter too bad it weren't me and my cobalt 2.2. I know how to drive one, the trick to it is first get a roll on race and pull the shift to low gear where your running in the power band, I beat all kinds of cars and trucks including a 5.9 liter ram and a civic but met my match in a modified tiburon, soon get me a chip where i can get rid of the rev limiter and do some top speed run on the highway

liquidr0x0r commented on 15 Oct 2010

yeah, i've got the same one. I like the accel. just wish i could get a lot quicker 0-20. sometimes it feels reeeeeal slow at the take off. as compared to my friends '06 mazda 3, which is extremely quick from the start but then doesnt keep the pace throughout the speedometer. oh, and also, with a proper launch technique, and brand new tires, i can get about 7.4-7.5 0-60 in my 2008 2.2l 34,000 miles.

Mike85220 commented on 30 Apr 2010

I wonder if it is thanks to the new fly by wire system and the fact the motor is a 10:1 compression ratio. That is pretty high and when running 87 octane, is pushing it. I bet the fly by wire even though you have it floored, sends a signal to the throttle to open up at a rate to prevent ping and detonation. More air coming in probably makes the computer just compensate even more.

Nebraskahusker23 commented on 18 Dec 2010

@drudawg911 Hill climb requires torque there chief. The Rabbit/Golf, which is probably in the same class, has 177 lb-ft of torque which is reached at 4,250 RPM. The Cobalt has 150 lb-ft which is reached at 4,900 RPM. Yes, there's a weight difference, but the torque to weight ratio is higher with the Rabbit/Golf. So I have a hard time seeing it kill a VW in a hill climb any day.

Supersmashist commented on 20 May 2011

@mustangmikeca 2.2 eco's don't have valve timming the only one that does is the 2.4 and that isn't even designed for top end performance. And no one cares about crank horsepower whp is the only thing that truly matters. Point is vtec is the gayest thing in the automotive world its all of the lag and none of the boost. It's just a wannabe turbo feel for wannabe racers.

ChickenC0re commented on 12 Feb 2011

@hwhhww You'd be surprised what people do with vehicles to impress someone they don't know. The Cobalt has respectable performance for a compact car. Not a lot of power ,but you can take out any other compact sedan in the market. HOLY SHIT, more like 130-135 ft lbs at the wheels! With a better exhaust and a Cold Air Intake you can get 15 secs on the 1/4 mile. Not bad.

John Wallace commented on 18 Sep 2012

I hate my cobalt.. im too big to live in it and its too big to eat.... does anybody want to trade for it? its a 09 lt sedan with neon lights plugged into the cigarette lighters :) ill consider trading for a home, a Scion XB, or a ham sandwich. Serious Inquires only..only because i have to pay by the minute at kinkos. those dirty bastards!

Mike85220 commented on 30 Apr 2010

@Mike85220 I do know that the 2.2 Ecotec takes a while to break in. It is very slow when new. Mine took at least 10k miles to start showing any signs of waking up. I have 40k now, and it is as quick as it will ever go which is about 8 seconds 0-60. I worry about adding bolt ons as all the videos on Youtube seem to indicate slower times.

DeltaChristian360 commented on 26 Aug 2011

@coupe3kgt you are sort of correct. my mistake its actually about .75 to 1 second faster. i timed it with a timer instead of counting in my head so i counted a seond faster in my head. but i didnt time it when my engine is below 195 F. when im going somewhere, usually far distance my car will hit 200 F and thats when i time it.

DOHCCordia commented on 14 May 2011

@mustangmikeca Tell you what. If your ever near stl chicago or kansas city I will race you in my auto cobalt (daily driver). Will be down in texas at the beginning of june. So could even do oklahoma or texas as well. I mean your ULTIMATE COBALT KILLING CIVIC wouldnt have an issue beating an NA auto cobalt now would it?

DOHCCordia commented on 14 May 2011

@mustangmikeca lol my cobalts not .5L bigger than your civic idiot. And your talking shit on the 2.2 cobalt so you obviously have enough to beat it! So whats the problem? Your the kid of idiot that would talk shit at a car meet then get the crap pounded out of you for not being able to back up what your preaching!

DOHCCordia commented on 13 May 2011

@mustangmikeca Seeing as you dont have a prelude that doesnt matter. Lets see your civic race a 2.2 cobalt. or a 2.4 cobalt or a 2.4 G5 Gt or an SS/SC or an SS/TC. You say all these cars are junk so by all means then your 1.7L automatic civic should have no issue beating a junk car right?

Mike85220 commented on 28 Sep 2010

@reidladam Why do you consider 8 seconds to 60 slow for an economy car? Yesterdays 4 bangers were hitting 60 in 10-12 seconds. The 2.2 Ecotec has a lot of potential. In other words it is an inexpensive car with a solid motor that can be modded to be a lot faster than most 4 bangers.

hwhhww commented on 10 Feb 2011

@drudawg911 so you mean cobalts get their full 152 ft lbs of torque (at crank) at 3600 rpm? thats like 110 to the wheels! HOLY SHIT THATS A LOT! these things run 16.5's in a 1/4 mile if you're a good driver. who does hill climbs anyway lol DUDE lets race on top of a hill!

Sam Sincox commented on 19 May 2011

@mustangmikeca well considering your last 0-60 time you said was horribily off im defeintly not gonna believe that a prelude is gonna beat a cobalt. how you even came up with such a horrible come back idk, apparently you realized civics suck so you had to try a new honda!

Mike85220 commented on 30 Apr 2010

The best time for stock I have seen for the 2.2 Cobalt coupe is 7.97 seconds. Seems like most people are hitting 60 in 9.5 seconds though. Here it timed out to 8.4 seconds. But what is interesting, the others hitting it in 9.5 seconds have an intake, exhaust or both.

liquidr0x0r commented on 15 Oct 2010

for 2.2l auto cobalt owners, try this (if you don't already know about this) : at around 25, put it in "I" and floor it, reeeal nice punch. and also around 65-70 through it in "L" and floor it" very nice as well. (regular "D" will not shift down at that speed)

Sam Sincox commented on 12 May 2011

@mustangmikeca well dumbass you didnt prove shit cuz ur pea sized brain cant comprehend that im talking about a cobalt and not a G5, idc if they have the same engine, there's other factors that go into speed, but you probably didnt know that dumbass

crzygutrsnobrdr commented on 01 Feb 2011

@drudawg911 even an old audi 2.8 would destroy this. and up against a 3.0? no chance, the 1.8t gets full stock spool are like 3400rpms not to mention there absoulute torque monsters...and add a chip boom 200-215hp and over 250ft lbs of torque

Pretty quick for a stock economy car. Nice! Definitely faster than my '97 Tracer. Check out my vid.

Spectre commented on 08 Sep 2008

Is it an automatic or manual? Is it the 2.4 liter engine or the 2.2 liter engine?

Spectre commented on 10 Sep 2008

That's surprising, I didn't think that the 2.2L auto cobalts were that quick.

Mike85220 commented on 27 Oct 2010

I forgot to mention, since the engine detected too much air coming in, the computer most likely took action and is why your 0-60 was so slow. AEM and K&N intakes throw CELs randomly. The newest 2 piece Injen has a very good track record of not throwing CELs. They seem to be the only company that tuned this intake to deal with the air sensor limitations on the Cobalt. JET makes an air sensor that compensates for this common problem. A Trifecta tune is also another option to get rid of this prob.

KiriyaAoi commented on 24 Jul 2009

Your an idiot diver362. Slalom has absolutely nothing to do with horsepower. Its about suspension and handling. The camaro has full IRS and IFS, the mustang has IFS and a Solid rear axle. (For cost and simplicity). To put an IRS suspension in a mustang if I recall would cost roughly $5000 per car. More complicated too. You have to remember, the mustang is also much much lighter than the camaro. Not that I don't like the camaro, I do, but I like the mustang and challenger too.

elmerochevyrida commented on 25 Feb 2010

@mustangmikeca did u forget about all the thousands of layoffs Ford did u dumbfuk... plus you cant measure the quality of a ride through the company's profits just means they spend their money more on building a better car... Ford has always felt like cheaper parts even in their interior which is just as important... and the day i see a stock mustang beat a stock camaro then maybe ill have respect for Ford but that will be when "PIGS FLY"

sideburns2009 commented on 09 Feb 2010

I'm not sure why people think Cold Air Intakes make check engine lights come on, on OBD-II vehicles. This car has something called a Mass Air Flow sensor. It doesn't take days to adjust, it takes seconds to adjust because it is constantly measuring air flow to help aid in the fuel ratio. Unless you unplug the sensor or have a leak in the intake after the sensor there is no reason the light will come on.

rob82901 commented on 14 Dec 2008

I love the check engine light. You are lucky you didn't blow up your car. When the check engine light is on, I really don't recomend getting up to almost 6 grand. Oh, and for others....it is a Cobalt LT....and that video was sped up, cuz my LT will only do 0-60 in about 9....the LT's are not fast at all, I will be the first to admit that one

diver362 commented on 07 Jul 2009

Cobalt is not as cheap as people think , if a person whose never been in one and mocks it for being cheap went in one, they would agree it is not cheap, and its built to a well enough standard and probably even a higher standard, as any other domestic sub compact car.

DOHCCordia commented on 18 Jul 2009

Now wait a minute in another video you were commenting on how a slower car was able to do a faster slalom so the higher hp car sucked... Your either learning or are just a massive douche. Either way your worthless and yet another idiot commenting on youtube videos.

KiriyaAoi commented on 20 Feb 2009

Chrysler has A LOT of catchup up to do. GM is getting there, but not quite there yet. I have faith in the American Makers. Hopefully once the sales slump is over and sales get back up to normal, it wont be so bad and they will have more money to work with.

glad your good man hope you have happy holidays bud..hay i have a question was that you on facebook as jeremiah white?? if not some 1 is acting to be you i didnt think it was you cause i was told some strange shit and i know you aint queer..lol

Dylan Ward commented on 08 Dec 2010

@rob82901 you do realize it depends on what the problem actually is with the car. I used to whip my car around with the check engine light on, because i had put a cai on it. xp Just because your cel is on, doesn't mean you have to baby it man.

diver362 commented on 07 Jul 2009

idiot those are different drivers first of all, 2nd, 2mph doesnt mean shit all bitch. BTW ur 2010 mustang shelby gt500 does 69.3MPH on a slalom, while a V6 2010 Camaro can do 68.2MPH thats a 240 hp dif so FORDS SUCK DICKS bitch

ocsfinest commented on 05 Feb 2009

Your 2008 Civic Si doesn't really compare to a car that's cheaper, has less power, and is an automatic. Let's call it for what it is. I'm inclined to like the Cobalt more, pussy ass car or not, because YOU aren't driving it!

Tim Powell commented on 09 May 2009

Seriously? Why ford? Ford quality? (lol) Ford's CLEAR ability to be faster? (LMAO as if) or because they are the cheapest to manufacture and have the best safety ratings? (Oh wait... that part is true)

Cheesecake132XxX commented on 07 Apr 2010

@jacchevr You dumbfuck a stock 90s toyota MR2turbo, aristo turbo or a supra twin can walk a cobalt in reverse ... lol you're a dumb bitch, don't talk shit about one of the greatest cars in the world.

KiriyaAoi commented on 21 Feb 2009

Sure. What about all the jobs of people that work for GM and chrysler? What about all the parts suppliers that will go down with GM? All auto companies get their parts from the same suppliers.

iri1shman86 commented on 02 Feb 2013

I think the 140 mph gauge is a bit much it will probably top out at 115 with the governor. I have an 08 fusion 3.0 V6 and the mph gauge goes up to 120 and I know it would smoke a cobalt.

Jac Chevrier commented on 03 Apr 2010

@mustangmikeca Ha ha but a 2.0L Cobalt SS can still shit on a 5.7L Mustang GT and Toyota doesn't even make a vehicle that can hang with the cobalt. So you my friend, are a dumb ass :)

KiriyaAoi commented on 20 Feb 2009

The new civic looks like shit, are you kidding? And the only reason the resale value is higher is because there is public perception that American cars suck. They dont suck anymore.

Tim Powell commented on 09 May 2009

what does that have to do with car quality? Microsoft support is doing pretty well and theyre like 99% outsourced to people in india making less than your kid does mowing lawns

onehotpocket commented on 28 Sep 2010

@rob82901 my check engine light is on and it's because of my charcoal canister purge solenoid for the emission system. Don't think a check engine light is always catastrophic.

DOHCCordia commented on 18 Jul 2009

How about this lets pit the slowest focus against the slowest cobalt. hhmmm cobalt wins in every category. If you want to compare. Then compare apples to apples...

Terry commented on 18 Nov 2010

@rob82901 calm the fuck down. minority complex much? this video wasnt sped up, if it was the tacho would have made that obvious. his shit is better than yours.

Not all dealerships for ANY car manufacturer get business. Your one little rinky dink dealer does not represent the whole of the country sales-wise.
