The factory 1.0 L inline-three or 1.3 L inline-four was replaced by a more powerful 2.2 L Ecotec L61 inline-four. These engines made 145-148 horsepower and 150-152 lb-ft of torque from the factory and were found in 2007-2008 Chevy Cobalt, HHR, and Malibu. However the owner upgraded the motor with a Hahn RaceCraft turbocharger and PortFueler setup. Running on a lot of boost the engine put down 463 horsepower and 439 lb-ft of torque to the front wheel or wheels. The owner states the car is &#8220;very fast but not much fun for daily driving.&#8221; In the video below the car went 13.4 sec at 110 mph on street tires and low boost. The last run of the night was 13.5 sec at 122 mph. <\/p>\n<p><a
