Default Well...

So... i helped my brother out and he wanted a 06 colbalt ss supercharged and i have to say its very nice... had some doubt in the car but when we went for a test drive that thing has some balls for only 205hp. Its got navi in it and the pioneer sound system which is awesome. Anyways we allready ordered stage 1 for it, hes pretty excited. im kinda too, wanna see what kinda gains he gets....

overall, chevy is coming up i think....

I've seen a few dyno plots & in stock form they put down 185-195whp............

a little underrated for sure


In the end though it's still just a Cavi

Ironic enough, if my friend WAS wearing his seat belt in his Cavi he would've died. He spun out and hit a tree and the drivers side was crushed all the way past the center console. He go thrown to the passenger floor board and survived. He was very lucky. The only reason that car has a 1 star side crash rating is because they can't give a 0 star.
