**A Time Attack Car that Exceeds Expectations**

I had the pleasure of driving the supercharged Cobalt SS, and I must say, it's an absolute monster on the track. The car sits literally perfect, with a really low aggressive stance while still being completely functional. I haven't bottomed out a single time driving this today, as long as you don't be stupid behind the wheel. The car's suspension has been fine-tuned to perfection, making it a joy to drive.

The Cobalt SS comes equipped with a personal wheel, which is honestly the factory Kobold SS wheel. I think it's a really good steering wheel because it's the same one they use in the C6 Corvette, a car known for its exceptional handling and performance. The suede dashboard and sway door cards add a touch of luxury to the car, making it feel like a high-performance racing car.

The manual transmission is another standout feature of this car, with ratios that are just a little different from those found in other cars. This change in ratio feels nice, giving the driver more control over the vehicle's performance. The Recaro seats are also a highlight, providing excellent support and comfort for long drives on the track.

The sound system is another aspect of the Cobalt SS that sets it apart from other cars. The Ecotec engine produces a deep throaty tone when revving, making it a joy to listen to. This is in contrast to turbocharged engines, which can produce a much more raspy and uneven sound. The supercharged Cobalt SS's sound system is smooth and refined, with no annoying burbles or rasps.

Driving the Cobalt SS was an exhilarating experience, especially when pushing it hard on the track. The car has a lot of torque steer, but this can be managed by modulating the throttle and using third gear to reel in the speed. When done correctly, this technique allows the driver to maintain control while still enjoying the thrill of high-performance driving.

One of the standout features of the Cobalt SS is its Brembo brakes, which are phenomenal even with the massive horsepower output. The car's first gear is, at times, useless but in a fun way, allowing the driver to enjoy a sense of weightlessness and freedom on the track.

Overall, I was thoroughly impressed by the supercharged Cobalt SS, both on the track and off. With its exceptional performance, smooth sound system, and luxurious features, it's no wonder that ZZP has taken this platform and really figured out how to make it shine. Whether you're a seasoned car enthusiast or just looking for a thrilling driving experience, the Cobalt SS is an absolute must-see.

**The Team Behind the Cobalt SS**

It's worth noting that ZZP, the team behind the Cobalt SS, has done an exceptional job of understanding the platform and making it perform. The Ecotec engine, in particular, is often underrated as a four-cylinder platform, but ZZP has proven that with the right modifications, it can produce impressive performance numbers.

The Cobalt SS also comes equipped with a range of upgrades, including a high-performance camshaft, pistons, rods, and cylinder head. This level of detail and attention to engineering is what sets the Cobalt SS apart from other cars on the market. It's clear that ZZP has put a lot of thought into this project, and their efforts have paid off in spades.

**A Personal Favorite**

As someone who regularly reviews and fixes bucket seats, I was thrilled to find that the Recaro seats in the Cobalt SS had sliders, making it easier for shorter drivers like myself to get comfortable. The sound system is also a highlight of this car, with a deep, throaty tone that's sure to please even the most discerning audiophiles.

In conclusion, I was thoroughly impressed by the supercharged Cobalt SS, both on and off the track. With its exceptional performance, smooth sound system, and luxurious features, it's no wonder that ZZP has made this car a standout in the world of high-performance driving.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enforeign this is not for the week thank you know you guys seem to really like the Chevy Cobalt SS so I decided to step things up and get a crazy Chevy Cobalt SS so this here is ZZ performances snowbolt the first kobold SSI drove made 300 wheel horsepower this one makes double that this makes about 600 wheel horsepower in a Chevy Cobalt so let's see what that's like because I don't really know what to expect oh it's like that big boy fuel pump pretty much everything you can do to a kobold SS is done to snowballed like it's all there so before we get started quick rundown of the Chevy Cobalt SS it's a front-wheel drive American tuner car that was kind of a response to the Dodge Neon SRT4 and also this was very much a crazy era for Chevy they got really experimental and threw darts at a board and just kind of saw what worked we're talking the Trailblazer SS talking about the Cobalt instance we're talking about the Saturn ION Red Line talking about the HHR SS the the Impala SS that was front-wheel drive the V8 just just a ton of weird cars in this era but the Cobalt SS had the supercharged version which was also the Saturn Ion Redline and then they had the turbocharged version the reason they went to Turbo is because GM's contract with Eaton superchargers expired so instead of it being like Oh turbo is the obvious option to go next it was because they ran out of Supercharger so they had to find a different solution all in all the last Chevy Cobalt SSI drove actually made around 300 something horsepower with zzp bolt-ons and it was a ton of fun and I drove it in the rain and that was a little sketchy but believe it or not the Chevy Cobalt SS if you did not know at the time was the fastest front-wheel drive car in production it did an eight minute something Nurburgring time which is pretty spectacular for back then I think the SRT-4 had more of like a cool factor and that's why a lot of people overlooked the kobold SS because the Cobalt was just an economy car just like the neon but for some reason that SRT4 got a little bit different of a legacy and I think that's really sad because the kobold SS as a tuner platform pretty freaking good it's pretty freaking good example a it has a Sidewinder setup on it what that means is it takes the rear mount turbo set up from the factory it makes it more of a front turbo setup and it just looks so much better in the engine bay you can see everything how it works the big single turbo just looks so menacing delivery on this car really suits snowball I really like the zzp wrap on this by the way is it Livery or Livery I can never get it right so put it in the comment section below one of my favorite things about this aesthetically is the arrow the aerodynamics on this car are completely functional the diffuser on the back he actually has an ing's front bumper which is something I didn't even know was a thing he's got demon eye tail lights which adds a very aggressive look to the rear end of this car functional APR wig on the back big diffuse this also runs runs the suspension as well and the car sits literally perfect it has a really low aggressive stance while also being completely functional I haven't bottomed out a single time driving this today as long as just don't be stupid we also have a personal wheel which honestly the factory kobold SS wheel I think is a really good steering wheel because you know it's the same one they use in the C6 Corvette this car this car is used for time attack so it makes sense to have this kind of steering wheel also we have a suede Dash sway door cards kind of adds a little bit more luxury or race car rally race car if you know what I mean this also speed Maybe manual transmission in the Cobalt SS and the ratios are just a little different feels a little bit different it's nice also got Recaro seats that are nice and snug and the recaros have sliders so shorter people like me can actually drive the car because a lot of the times when I do car reviews and fix bucket seats I need to like make something work like put a pad behind me or a hoodie behind me or something my personal favorite was a pillow but the sound this thing makes is super interesting does that not scream 2000's tuner car at the same time the Ecotec engine is so underrated as a four-cylinder platform not to mention it has a much deeper tone than most four-cylinders speaking of like Hondas you know they can have that really raspy note behind them if they're not turbocharged especially this thing has a nice deep throaty tone spinning The Supercharged Cobalt SS and Saturn Ion Redline they're much more linear right they have this very predictable Power Band The turbocharged ones are just a different animal altogether zzp has gotten this motor up to 900 wheel horsepower before no I just love the sound off of the trees God bless you Cobalt there goes my face yeah rolling into third it ramps in super super hard torque steer I started moving we have what I like to call tasteful verbals not annoying burbles whoa foreign coming out of the corner and it's just like hey I like rumble strips I want to hear what they sound like the thing the third gear is super super tall so it's really hard to kind of reel it all the way out and then once you do the Torx here kicks in you're like oh my God foreign this is crazy like second gear what I'm doing is I'm kind of modulating my throttle letting it hook up for a second and then but then by the time I get there I'm spitting so then I'm like all right now I'm going to go into third gear a good job and it's still like Dad I don't like this also sound wise we have a really awesome side exit exhaust that really makes this thing sound super gnarly this it a bunch of zzp goodies the head is done the valve Train's done the Pistons are done the rods are done hole nine you name it breaks on the Cobalt SS the Brembo brakes that came with the Cobalt SS have absolutely no right being as good as they are they really really show their worth with this much horsepower and they're still able to handle this which phenomenal first gear is useless but in a fun way second gear roast the tires but you're still moving forward which is really bizarre typically with fast front wheel drive cars uh spending is not winning but this just keeps going somehow um this is not for the week oh geared man it starts walking and you're like I don't know where I'm going but I guess I'm going along for the ride I don't really have a choice right now this thing is an isn't I mean it makes all the right noises hi sir would you like to do a scavenger hunt of every divot and crevice in this road the kobold SS is for you and what's really cool is zzp has taken this platform and really figured it out I think that's the big problem with these cars is a lot of people just kind of throw Parts at them and don't really know the secret sauce is these knows the secret sauce with the Ecotec engine it's it's a cobles SS that's low bait with its cams it's super weird to be around when you hear this thing low pain you're like there is no way it's coming from that Cobalt also I've got like five thumbs up today so that's always a good feeling all right zzb kobold SS also known as snowbolt 600 wheel horsepower and a Cobalt what did I think of it well as a Time attack car this thing is an absolute monster I had a really good time driving this sounds amazing very charismatic car in that note I upload on Tuesdays Thursdays and Sundays and I will see you guys next time take it
