my buddy has a stock 06 cobalt LS 5sp. im looking at an early redline. maybe 03 or 04, seeing that i prolly couldnt afford anything any newer. i was just curious if anyone would have any idea how the two would stack up against each other.

redlines are able to go faster with less horsepower (GM has a 700 hp redline and they have a 1000 hp cobalt with the same engine) and the redline does win. so i say the redline but if you are going to modify it then go with a cobalt ss

STAY AWAY FROM THE REDLINE!! I owned a 2005 brand new with the comp package, which is fog lights, boost guage and painted alloy wheels. I had nothing but problems with it, cat was replaced 5 times, then they replaced the supercharger and countless other items on that peice of shit. I know other Redline owners and they have nothing but problems too. Saturn later bought the car back from me under Michigan Lemon Law after I had put 12,000 miles on it. I later bought a Grand Am SC/T, great car!!

By the way, you can get 300 hp out of the 2.0L Ecotec with out mods to the engine and with out building it up. You can get Stage 1 and 2 they are basically a smaller pully for the supercharger, higher flowing fuel injectors and a pcm flash. A good friend of mine had that done to his Red Line and it caused him even more head aches. I miss my car man but damn did I have a lot of problems with it, the check engine light was always on!
