For the stock RSX owners here, unless you plan on running around at 7,000rpm I wouldn't try running the new Cobalt SS. |

Yeah the Ecotec sucks huh, tell that to John Lingenfelter and his 6 second stock block Ecotec Cavalier pushing over 1,000hp, or So-Cal's 700+ hp Ion, wait did I hear an iVTEC (wonder what the "i" is for) screaming to make 600 hp, oh wait thats normal. I will say the RSX is more refined but the Cobalt isn't running the standard Chevy Tupperware interior like the rest and when you consider the RSX can easily hit in the high $20's after a few options, i'll choose the underdog.
