Sounds good! Cant wait for the dp/ midpipe to get here. Zzp claims 12whp and 22-25wtq on factory tune. Once i get this, im gonna delete the stock resonator and muffler then put a borla muffler where the stock res was.

Saw a guy with a modified RS on his way to work. I think he works at the Chevy dealership in town. Looked really good. Silver with mostly blacked out everything.
He wanted to race so I at least gave him second gear. I wonder if he knew how badly it was going to end.
The RS package is the only way to go.

Lol, i do go around racing because the cars not that fast. Its peppy, once i get a few mods done to it and a tune then it should be quicker. Intake, turboback exhaust and a tune should net me between 175-190whp and 215-225wtq. Not bad considering stock they are 140hp and 150tq

I love it. First real issue today. I was heading to work, setting at a stoplight and the car started idling wierd and the cel came on. When i got to work i popped the hood and noticed one of the vacuum lines going to the intake mani was broke off. Where its all 1 piece, they had to order me a whole new intake mani, which will be here monday. Its underwarrenty and this is the first they have seen of this after selling and servicing thousands of cruzes. Leave it to me lol. The glued it back together for now to hold me off till the new one comes in. Must have been a manufacture defect because the nipple snapped off clean. Cant really blame that on the car tho. I still love it tho. Avg 42-50mpg on the highway and 35-40mpg in town on 89 octane. I really like the 6spd manual, its fairly rare in 2012 as it was the first year they made a manual.
