Cleaned the interior

 

filled it up with 93 octane lol

 

installed a new intercool pump and wideband 02 sensor on a 2007 cobalt we built in 2007. The single pass laminova, race griffin and rotated mounts we installed still functioning perfectly after all these years.
Imagine.

 

Superior engineering is superior?

 

Well not exactly working on the car but something that goes on the car. My amp was kinda scratched up from when I took my subs out and put them in storage. I had had a set of jack stands in my trunk that rubbed up on the amp. So I decided that I would repaint it and make it match the car better. Its High Gloss Black and in between the lines on the edges its going to hand painted Pearl Orange. Here are some in work pictures.

Picture Still In Progress
Painting inside of those ribs on black take a lot work to get it show up.

 

My radio harness came in today, so now once my radio, and Double Din installation kit come in, I'll stuff that in the dash. Still waiting for my second Rockford Fosgate 2 ohm 12" P3 to come in. I can't wait to get rid of the garbage ass 12" sony xplods that in the car currently. Also I ordered a new set of Black Housing Spec-D Gen 1 Headlights, should be here on Monday hopefully. I go my HID kit back from being sent in for warranty. Its going to be a busy week. I for see a lot of time in the cold here in Norfolk. I wish I had a garage to work in.

Here is a pic of some of it.

 

Put just about everything I'd need in case I got stuck for a couple days in the middle of winter in it. Also gave it possibly the last bath before it gets too cold out.

 

Washed it

 

Installed the forge bpv, think that my stock one was leaking a bit or something, because boost building behaves a bit differently on moderate accel

 

Brought retros

 

Put the Forge BPV in the back seat so I can install it tomorrow

 

got the new hood all shined up, it was wrecked filled with swirl marks.

buffed it meguires ulitmate compound that worked magic!

getting me a new bumper tomorrow hopefully for 70, then gotta find somewhere to get my hail dents fixed



and.. haha

 

got black/red sstc seats
installed treadstone hotside pipe
installed treadstone coldside pipe
installed treadstone TR8 Intercooler

 

I like my treadstone TR-8.

 

Nice

 

so far I do as well.. but holy be-jesus the whole treadstone piping kit with the TR8 makes alot of turbo whistle when in vaccuum starting to build boost on the K04. It was decently audible before with just my RealStreet Tuning Hotside on stock IC/Coldside, but now its just flat out loud. Sounds like a diesel with the high pitch whistle.


because racecar

 

i hit 60000 miles today

 

I've got TurboXS pipes until spring, with the K+N intake. It is noisy, but it's a noise I don't mind.

Installed s3 heat exchanger and burping the system. Takes a while without opt b
