Well I spent from 4pm to 8pm on weds and on Thursdays installing the whole turbo kit, Thursdays night went to flash the trifecta tune and I accidentally got a automatic car tune and tune would not work, got a hold of Vince that night and by lunch time Friday I got my new tune, got the car started and idled good but when I tried to drive it seem to be running stupid rich, than wouldn't stay running, sent an idle log over to Vince and I just got my corrected tune back, gonna upload in the am and see what happens,

Have you done any internal work on the motor? Or you plan on running low boost?

well i got the car running good and holding 8lbs consitantly, before boost would bounce around 6 to 9 to 6, i ran the vacuum lines like zzp said to do and that put the wastegate, blowoff valve all on the same source and it acted funny, i now have the boost controller and wastegate on their own source on the intake, and the blow off uses its own now to and im holding 8 lbs all day long, got my first correction tune from vince on weds, havent been able to data log it since it hasnt stop raining the past 3 day. the car is soo much fun!! once i get the tune dialed in and get a wideband shes going on the dyno

I wish I lived in pittsburg now, I'd have mongo to buy parts from, teams that can actually win and a few more local cobalts. Even though Noor and xxjon (close enough) are good.

Who fixed your car when it was wrecked. Looks like they did a hell of a job.

Clean car when I saw it a Frans dyno day

Bmartz is correct I did all the work myself at my work, my body shop painted everything, I did everything else, all the sanding, all the minor body work, and welding the core support

I went with Brembo brakes and a 5 lug swap. Have a Powell rear swaybar and love it. I need to switch out my drums for rear disks yet.
