Where are you getting this 190whp estimate? Thats about what my boosted D setup was at (proven), and it was much faster than what your car appears to be running in the video.
Have you had it on a Dyno? A real track that would provide Trap Speed at least?
Also, I dont think that Cobalt was the SC version. Either that, or the driver was absolutely awful.

That wasn't the supercharged version either, I just don't have the file saved on my computer anymore to change the video. When I made it I was under the impression that the SS's were the supercharged ones, I found out later that the SS/SC ones are supercharged. It was an SS though, but automatic and an idiot driver.

You're right, I did just pull that number out of my *** but I'm estimating hp at the crank, not whp. Also an estimate, so I'm sure its not that close to what it really is.

Right on, I figured that was the case.
You should really hit up a real track and see what kind of times/traps you put down. I'd be interested to see em

I'm preloading at 4k rpm then just spraying all the way through, even in first. With a 50 shot you still have enough traction to do it in first. I haven't tried a 75 shot because my clutch wouldn't last long with it so I can't say for sure about that. I've heard you have to wait until second gear to spray a 75 shot but the way the 50 shot hooks up for me I think you could do a 75 shot in first also.
Yea I would love to head to a real track too but the closest one I know of is I think over 2 hours away and I just don't have the time in between school and work anymore so hopefully I will get time eventually.
