Where the hell is your break rotor? Why stop I guess.

BTW, in regards to the Ion, I could never deal with the center mounted spedo, I wouldn;t buy one because of that alone… and weak breaks. 😛

Nice pics though :tup:

weak breaks on the ion HAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA ok now that i am done laughing the ion redline breaks almost (about 10ft more) than the lambo mersalago(sp) in the 60-0 so i would not say weak breaks. so 😛 to you!🙂 the center spedo takes some getting used to but after that its great because you dont have to worry about where your hands are on the steering wheel to check your gauges, and i have kinda gotten the car down to a science now so i really dont look over there that much anyways. and yes there is a front brake rotor i just chose not to paint to because my money went to other things that make the car go faster:)

lol… I know you mean brakes… but breaks is much more funny.

How well does it stop from 130?

Awesome pics Mitch. Both cars look great. The Ecotec 2.0L SC (Eaton M62) is rated 205hp from GM but a lot of people have been dynoing these cars STOCK and getting between 210-215whp. I’m sure the Redline is a little faster because it’s prolly a little lighter than the Cobalt SS. These cars have a lot of potential. Once GM releases their Stage Upgrades (ECU reflash and a 2.9" GM Pulley) for these cars they’ll be pushin’ about 250whp
