Thanks guys, that gives me a better idea. The car really feels strong! Like I said, I haven't hit it to hard yet, still breaking it in! I hope to get it down to the track and give it a go this summer!

My car has a huge powertrain loss. I did a few dyno pulls and found that my car only has 112.2 HP and 110.7 TQ on a Dyno Dynamics Dyno. Almost a 25% loss in HP and almost 28% for TQ.

15 to 25% is normal power loss from the crank rating to the tires. At least that's what I read.

Haha, you have one of the best mods on your car: a Yourcobalt.com sticker! When applied to the cobalt properly, it will add an extra 100 horsepower!

yeah, elevation makes a HUGE difference. I remember long ago going to races at Bandimere in Colorado. I just switched elevation for nasty humidity
