I doubt he has been on here in over a year or more.

 

Ugh... i can't even get the DP off... just need a quarter inch of room. I knew that electric cut out was gonna cause clearance issues.

 

Yes I talked to the local Borg Warner Rep and they did a redesign of the EFRs last year because of early issues with the first design.

 

I have all that stuff but Im in Az on vacation .Ill be back late Monday Ph 412 915 3183

 

Thanks mongol, I'm sure I'll be calling you for something.

 

You figure bw would rebuild the Turbo for free or at least at a heavy discount. I mean they put out a product that was no good.

 

it should b warranty due to a manufacture defect.

 

x2

 

I'm not seeing much damage yet, but i don't have the Turbo off. I took some pics of intake and exhaust side that I'll post in a bit. I'm gonna see if Borgwarner will do anything, but it's not gonna go back on the cobalt if they did fix it.

I'm honestly not a Mechanic and have no clue on what I'm doing so this could take awhile.

 

LOL. That's great!

Still in for part out though!!!

 

I know enough to get the job done but this isn't something I do all the time. I hate working on cars haha..

I don't have anything to part out so not sure what everybody wants..

 

i love working on my cars lol. i just make more doing my job i do now than what i would working on cars.

 

interested in selling your hptuners?

 

Probably not, i still tune cars and hopefully my next car.

 

Boo. You sir are no fun.

 

I'll let you know if anything changes. If i get a car that hp tuners doesn't support I'll likely sell.

 

Manifold nuts are off, and have 3 of the 4 Turbo bolts loose.

 

3 of 4 turbo bolts loose? I didn't even know our turbos had bolts. What are they used for???

 

Everything was custom made and that's why this is being a bitch.. Once i get it out I'll post pics..

 

This this is the tubular exhaust manifold

 

Damn. That looks real nice guy!

 

for sale? lol

 

I can't believe I got this out.. What a tight fit (that's what she said)..

 

thats a funny looking downpipe, i can see why it would be tricky lol.

You have no idea.. Manifold, Turbo and down pipe had to be unbolted and had to be shuffled around to get each part out. If my buddy didn't help me it would have been worse. It took 2 minds to figure out the puzzle..
