2009 cobalt ss sedan

Name: Alex
Location: Novi /flint Michigan
Year:2009
Motor: LNF
Mileage:55,000

I have owned this car for couple months, it runs and drives fine but with no boost at all. It needs a Re tune, it's throwing p0101 and low boost codes or(under boost) it really is a pain in my butt I thought I could fix it and I couldn't. I don't feel like getting the car tuned so im offering to someone else a low mile Lnf that needs some love. Doesn't have a front lip has scratches and blemishes. No sunroof heard that it is rare to not have one in a sedan... I'm looking to get 11k but definitely negotiable. If you have any questions feel free to Hmu 8104171305.
Obo


Mods:
-hahn upper and lower charge pipes
-short throw shifter
-zzp fmic
-Kn short ram intake
-stupid trifecta tune (needs retune)
-15 lbs and 22 lbs (cruise control)

P0101 means You have a boost leak. Build a boost leak tester and find and fix the leak and if you still want to sell it than sell it.

Turbo blown?
Map sensors have signals?

There isn't too much that could be wrong...

No I get boost the first 30 seconds I turn the car on. Then after that I get nothing.. It's weird, so when I need boost I turn the car off and turn it back on. Lol. Idk what the problem is Alot of people said the trifecta tunes suck.. But a tune can't just go bad.

Then maybe its your turbo best way to figure it out buy a used pcm and check it to see if you still have the issues

They do but I have never seen a tune cause a P0101. I know you want to sell but you are going to have a hard time selling it not running properly.

Waste gate could be getting stuck.
BPV could be getting stuck.

Are you sure it didn't crack the upper intercooler piping or the intercooler end tanks?

Edit: Nevermind, read it initially makes boost then nothing.

If I was close I would flash a GMS1 tune on it just because.

Something is leaking though.

Pull the EVAP and cap it. See if that changes it.

Email them and get your original tune file back.

This is my number one complaint about Trifecta. The PCM gets locked and nothing can overwrite it except their original tune file.

It took me like 3 months to get that for my LSJ and then they didnt have a cable to loan me either.
