This is funnier: -Complete Independent Suspension -All Aluminum 4 Cylinder With Forged Internals -All Wheel Disc Brakes(Dimpled and Slotted) -Curb to Curb turning circle of 35.1ft -107in Wheelbase **Damn, This Thing Is A Race Car** Other than that he is right about the ecotec. With factory backing you can make power with damn near anything. ---

i had an ecotec motor in my cobalt ss. it was solid and took mods well. i had over 300rwhp but i highly doubt this kids grand am he has pictured has 1000hp. thats what i found funny. a cold air intake, strut brace, and the fact that its a 5 speed makes it a race car. ---
