thats my loop hole lol my mom works for a insurance agency so my car cost $1,000 a year for insurance full coverage

My car is $840/6mo, the Cobalt would have been like $920/6mo.

The "modability" of a car has nothing to do with its insurance rates.

Theft rate
Crash safety
Repair costs
Power to weight
Locale
Amount driven

Those are factors of insurance costs.

There are far more modded Honda Civic's around than Cobalt SS's period, but you don't see those insurance rates skyrocketed. I've seen a 4door Turbo D16 civic run a low 13.

actually i was just posting a video... i could care less about arguing i am more or less here to learn about the cars

OK, I want you to read this post twice so you really understand it.
By joining a Mustang forum and making your first post a vid of a Mustang getting killed, did you honestly think it would not cause a stir? This site welcomes all kinds of car people, but make sure you remember your place here.

Look at your URL, what does it say... "www.MUSTANGforums.com", I'm sure there is plenty mustang kill threads at Cobaltss.net that you could take part in.

actually i believe the only kills i ever posted was one on a modded tbss and one on a gto. I am usally in the tech side of things over there. Alot of my buddies have stangs and we have raced before but i never posted any results. I don't like to bash cars really hence why i never said a bad thing about the ponies

I made a comment about the video of you beating that Mustang but then I remembered that the video wasn't of your car.

Your place is to not stir up trouble here, pretty simple if you think about it. By posting a mustang death as one of your very first posts here did you honestly think you would get a warm welcome? What if I went on a Cobalt board and put up a vid of my car killing a Cobalt as my first post, would I be welcomed with open arms? Drop the "I'm so innocent" act, you knew what the outcome would be, and if you did'nt then you really are slow (I am not talking about your car). Don't stir up trouble and you are welcome here, but the moment I here that you do anything wrong you gone. We have dealy with Cobalt/SRT4 kids here before and I really don't want to deal with it again.

That dyno graph in your ablum shows you have 250whp, thats about the same as a stock GT. Does your Cobalt have the G85 option?

it has the g85 package yes. this dyno was on 212* coolant i was only running 16psi i usually run 21 and i was running 12.4 afr when i want 11.8 so i was a little lean, this was also before my my 3" header and dp. So i figure once i found out were i am leaking boost i should be around 280

i'm not trying to make excuses to but that is how it was
