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

New driverside hub assembly, fuel filter and induction cleaner. Runs better and CEL (cat issue) is gone for now.

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

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.

The car looks great, but don't take off the bowtie until it's nice and warm out. Your clear coat will appreciate it.

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.
