Shouldn't be a problem for you if you can drive.

 

Here is my kill list:

2005 Corvette
2006 GTO
95-09 Mustang GT every year it seems (very weird community "Its a Mustang")
Mustang Gts I killed when I was stock!!!!!!!!!!!
2004 EVO running @ 12LBS Boost
2003 Audi S4
2002 Camaro SS w/400hp which means nothing!
2007 Roush Mustang 427
2010 Cobra GT500 ( Its still a mustang even if it has a Chrome worm on it)
00-07 Porche 911 (dont know what year 2000 something)
and others that dont matter!

Dont ask if you can just try!!! If you get beat then thats more reasons to build bigger!!!!

KILLED BY LIST
08 Corvette ZO6 by 2 cars. I just dont have the Torque yet
94 MR2 running 14lbs boost on built motor. by a F'ing mile 2400lbs w/400+ hp

 

Anyone of you guys got to run a supercharged Saturn Ion? It's a stock supercharger. From a dig and a roll, what's the outcome?

 

Haven't ran any, but from what I have READ, the SS Cobalts and Ions STOCK were giving some stock/lightly moddified AP1s a handful.

Wikipedia

In production from 2004 through the 2007 Model Year, Saturn produced the Redline Factory-tuner variant of the Ion. Developed in coordination with the GM Performance Division and track tested at Germany's famous Nürburgring Nordschleife, the Ion Redline featured a 2.0L LSJ Ecotec 205 hp (153 kW) engine with an Eaton M62 Roots type supercharger and an air-to-liquid intercooler. Also included was a stronger F35 5-speed manual transmission, pulled from GM Europe.[5][6] This engine/powertrain combination is also shared with the Chevy Cobalt SS. However, the Cobalt SS didn't start production until the 2005 model year. While faster than the Cobalt SS, the Ion Redline has a one-up over its sister-car with its rear suicide doors.[7]

The Ion Redline is probably the most overlooked of all the GM High-Performance cars. Reason being that most people don't often equate Saturn with High-Performance vehicles. Not only did the Redline claim a 0-60 mph time of only 6.0 seconds, it also claimed a 1/4 mile time of 14.6 seconds. GM Performance retuned the Spring and bushing rates, and reduced the ride height by about 10mm. To accompany all that, GM Performance added larger 4-wheel disc brakes - complete with 17-inch forged alloy wheels and Dunlop Sport SP9000 215/45 tires, thicker performance sway bars, revalved shock absorbers, and Recaro racing seats. The larger disc brakes made the Redline capable of shedding 70 mph in only 164 ft., Porche territory. Also included was a 2.25 inch exhaust system with a Chrome-tip pipe that allowed for greater "snarl" from the tailpipe and OnStar. The Ion Redline was introduced with a base price of $20,950.[8][9]

Introduced for the 2005 model year was the optional Competition Package. Included in the Competition Package were 17" Gunmetal Painted Alloy Rims, Ladder Tachometer w/ shift lights, a Limited Slip Differential, and Optional Projector-beam Fog Lamps.[10] In mid-2006, GM released 2 Engine Kit upgrades for both the Ion Redline and the Cobalt SS. The Stage 1 Kit retails for around $500, and included higher-flow fuel injectors and a recalibration to the ECU to increase the Horsepower by 31 hp to 236 hp and 205 lb.-ft. of torque, up from the stock 205 hp and 200 lb.-ft. The Stage 2 Kit retails for around $750 and opens up the middle of the power curve to more power than the Stage 1 Kit alone. In addition to everything that the Stage 1 Kit comes with, the Stage 2 Kit includes a smaller drive belt and pulley for the supercharger, bringing the engine up to 241 hp and 218 lb.-ft. of torque. GM did release a Stage 1 to Stage 2 Upgrade kit that retails for $400. This Upgrade Kit is for a Redline with the Stage 1 kit already installed. All the Upgrade Kit does, is adds the Stage 2 elements and increases the horsepower from 236 hp to 241 hp.

 

I do remember hearing from one of my friends who test drove one of the early Ion Redlines that it was a huge disappointment simply because of the tranny, I guess the cars were geared all wrong and would constantly place the next gear out of the power band.

Just word of mouth though.
