Default Has anyone beaten a Cobalt SS/SC?

My brother bought a '06 Cobalt SS/SC earlier this year and I've seen him race a few civic's and they didn't stand a chance... if anyone has beaten one what have you done to your engine? because I want to build a quick Honda.

I raced one in ocean city (one of the dumbest ideas i ever had because there where a lot of cops partolling the circuit during senior week), and I got beat. They are really fast cars, but an SI with some work done to it and a good driver should easily beat one.
