The SRT-4 uses a turbocharger. Its the same turbo that is in the EVO 8. And I would take the SRT-4. Dont like the Cobalt.

lamborghini freak · Jul 30, 2005, 12:04 AM

I know I said that look again

LS ONE · Jul 30, 2005, 12:07 AM

Also ive seen SRT-4s go 0-60 in 5.5sec and the 1/4 mile in 13.3. But never mind Im just nit-picking.

iloveturbo · Jul 30, 2005, 12:19 AM

i'd take the chevy only because i hate neons, no matter how good they are

S-Tune_S1 · Jul 30, 2005, 2:01 AM

Driftster · Jul 30, 2005, 5:47 AM

I would pick the srt-4 but i still dont like it

I like the Cobalt because it's a sporty two-door, not a loaded econo-sedan.

Ghalos · Jul 30, 2005, 10:05 AM

SRT4, + five grand, and you've got a 501bhp giant.

Game over "SS".

ferrarikid24 · Jul 30, 2005, 1:32 PM

yeah srt-4 you can be making 300+ hp straight from the factory.

BAI MANGAL · Jul 30, 2005, 3:07 PM

I hate these both alot!

SRT-4. No Saturn or Chevrolet is quicker, faster, or better. The quarter-mile and 0-60 times for the Saturn and Chevrolet are typically inflated, too: how does a 2976lb 205hp car go 0-60 in 5.9 seconds? Meanwhile the Neon, which weighs 30lb less and has a 25hp advantage (and a standard LSD) only manages it a tenth quicker?

5.8 seconds is Dodge's figure, 5.9 for the SS is Motor Trend's figure, which means that they revved the car to 4000RPM and dropped it, whereas Dodge simply floored it from a standstill. Not to mention Motor Trend's drivers, nearly all of whom are professional and can shift faster than most automatic transmissions. Sorry - SRT-4 is notably quicker, and the SS is mostly BS.

I'd take the SRT4 because Chevy's in general suck. And, i hear that some of the parts were designed and made by 15 year olds. I forget who said that. And the SRT4 sounds awesome too.
