14.1 stock would SEEM a stretch, because the lighter rwd sky/sol only run 14.0 flat with a good driver (autos are a tenth or two faster) but the cobalt ss transmission has MUCH better transmission ratios for going down the quarter crossing right before redline in third whereas the sky/gxp will cross at around 4400rpms in fourth.

Other notable differences: 4 piston brembos, LSD is NOT standard... has two cats instead of the one on the sky/gxp. 100 pounds heavier then the outgoing car.

How are you attempting to get into the 12s? As in what mods you have planned to shave .7-1sec off? I know a ton about the Ecotec motors and their potential but i got totally thrown off when i saw direct injection.
