Thanks. Already learning a lot from these forums. Looking forward to modding this car, and...teaching the wife how to drive stick. Haha.

Here's the car. It's very much winter here in NY... lol. And there he is again in the back. Next up is a little interior paint work.

Plans for 2013: Cold Air Intake, New Exhaust System, New Deck and maybe stereo system, and new projector lights.

Stop doing the little mods and save your money for a turbo from zzperformance.com trust me!!!!!

Does the 06 have forced internals? Every time I've shopped for a turbo for this car it only comes up with ones compatible with an 08 or newer.

Had the heater fixed, bought the bezel for the sunroof switch and installed it, and then cleaned it! It's nasty winter here in central NY. Tonight I am taking off the rear bowtie, and possibly swapping out the dome lights.

I like that cut out, but I'm wondering if the transmission mount bolt I see next to it isn't lose. It looks like it's sticking out a bit.

You're right. At least you knew what I was seeing. Or thought I was seeing.

Make sure it's very very heated. And the car is in there for a while. Heat guns are nice, but uneven heat.

Debadging was a great success. No more rear bowtie or ugly GM badges.
