Well this makes sense as to how I was introduced into factory freaks, first new car was a GM. I had a Chevy Cobalt SS for 5 years and we saw some that would come 185whp from the factory and some up to 235whp, the Supercharged version (2005-2007). Nobody saw any factory freaks out of the turbocharged version (2008-2010).
