The color looks like laser blue metallic. You have a LSJ 2.0 engine in it. You can also check the sticker in the trunk.It will tell you if it has the G85 package.

Humm and where is that located in the trunk. what's the package lol yea I know its higher octane rating but would that be why my motor didn't last 6 months and I also suspect the computer or motor has ben changed if im not mistaken the vin didn't match the cars

Under where the battery and spare tire is. It looks like this.

You have the G85 package, which is the Ricaro seats and the LSD. Down that same line, reads 'LSJ', and next line 'MU3'. LSJ = Engine type. MU3 = Transmission.

You can also buy a vehicle report from your local DMV, you just give them then VIN and they'll print everything out about the car.

Ohh that's cool so I stay on lsj line is that all abbreviated for what I am suppose to have in the car

Nice that you have the G85 option! Thats a nice package!

Why not here as well
 

Does this look home made to anyone else or is this some sorta aftermarket exhaust manifold and looks kinda like its burnt thru the ports and cracked them

I should mention that last sequence of your sticker, the 'U 218M' is your paint code. It's called "Laser Blue Metallic".

Probably not homemade as there were several manufactures back in the day that offered headers. It doesn't appear to be ZZP.

It could also have been a ebay special.

https://www.ebay.com/i/264992073638?...iABEgINP_D_BwE

Definitely looks like an Ebay special.

Ohh was suppose to be full zzp exhaust fu***** cons anything to rase the price up lol I still got it cheap tho so o well has some zzp stuff on it it has the dual pass and I know the catback is zzp I guess thats what it's called I would call it a baffle but ahh it has a zzp pully hell if I know what size I know I get 16.5 lb of boost and at idle I thought it use to be -20 lb but it says -15 on idle it ran good even when it was smoking but i had set and tinker with it to try get it to stop missing it does it all the time now I had reduced power as well before it was bellowing all the smoke it is now but o well shitty gm built piece of shit the cavi I had was drove every day and still can but I gave it to my wife's sister because she didn't have a car and I thought it wouldn't last 2 months its been going for 4 years and the cobalt I just bought crapped out on me 5 months in lol ironic I was hesitant to give it to her at the time only had the cobalt for 3 months didn't want it to break down and not have a ride but gave it to her anyways on good faith hahahaha , yep definitely ebay but I guess its got a real zzp slip on lol ohh with it on 16.5 lb boost wonder how much whp it was making

Thats the joys of owning a SS. Always on jack stands.

Yep. My e-brake still hasn't been fixed after 4 trips to the dealership. Trip #5 tomorrow.

Hey everyone
 

yea wasn't realizing that I was looking for a reliable motor I gave away my cavalier thinking it was gonna be the same running like a champ nomatter what you put it thru it still goes plowed a deer and pushed the frame against the radiator and the belt donno how it didn't smash everything in the front end beyond repair had to pull off the road and use someone's crowbar and cheater to get the front off the belt enuff to get home and then it was chain and reverse time lol still had no leaks in the radiator or engine oil still drove it another year or two and had no problems hell I didn't even change the oil not once the whole time or radiator coolant and probably still not to this day and it will still start and run like it did when I had first got it thats what I thought I was buying with the cobalt man o man was the shit hitting me in the face off that fan I had only been interested in dirtbikes and 4 wheelers I can tell you all for a 4 wheeler a Yamaha and 2 stroke dirtbike kawasaki and 4 stroke will have to be Honda lol geez should have stayed with what I know but getting to old for it now new to the constant repairs required not new to the adrenaline and knowledge of sports and physics figured I'd get a 4 banger so I don't kill myself lol all balls hell I push scotters to their limit I figured I'd get my noob out and change the way people introduce themselves thats how I have done it this whole time

Thats cool man! I have always built cars. It started back in the 90s with my dad. I have built several over the years. Although with my new Charger R/T I have left it mostly stock. My kids love cars too. Especially my oldest. he is a big car guy.

Hi everyone
 

Thats awesome my grandfather was the whole reason i got into dirtbikes

Thats awesome! Welcome! Lots of knowledge and good people on this site!

hi black I have been dealing with alot of other things but I started on the car finally I wanted to check the sc coolant pump turned the ignition on and I heard the pump running kinda loud I have the option b dual pass kit and didn't see any bubbles in the overflow on the left tank also took care of the o2 sensor codes I replaced upstream and downstream got looking at the exhaust and where it connects to the header there was some oil that looked like it was building there also took the plugs out and 2 of them I think was covered in oil and the other 2 seemed like they was burning and 1 of them had a helix core or whatever it's called in it but not like a spring more like a bigger plug used for thred but anyways i got the supercharger off and the intake off cleaned the cold air intake filter the throttle body also checked the vacuum line on the supercharger and it held vac but got to the intake and it had oil in it prob about 2 or 3 Oz. But didn't see any coolant in it the cores they look like the need took out and cleaned but not sure if I should does it need to be cleaned I have new zzp o-rings if so. I got the intake off it looked like they had gasket maker on and no gasket from intake to the motor and the pcv or check valve is letting air go both ways in it not sure if I need a new one or what but can't find one.! the valve cover gasket was like plastic on one side of the motor and one of the spark plug seals was hard like that as well I was able to see a little bit of the top of the piston and oil was on a couple of them as well I'm thinking because the valve cover gasket i have checked the dip stick and no water or shavings in it from what I could tell I got new oil and a filter and going to drain soon and inspect it more but yea hoping this fixes it not really wanting to tear it all down but the timing chain or that side of the motor was starting to rattle or tick some that I have not looked into much it has 15 teeth between the 2 cams intake is at 2 exhaust is at about 10 or 11 any other things I should check open to any suggestions thanks for all the support
