A shop turning you down and being honest is wayyyyy better than one saying sure and then breaking your car... Jussayin

True, I completely agree with you. But if they work on boosted cars, mine shouldn't be that different. I'm just asking for a basic boost leak test, nothing major.

I heard man, Steve texted me I was at work till 2 last night. haha, I'm sorry man, James is my friend. He's doing me a big favor and he tunes me. I'll be fully built with sleeves as well and cams/valvesprings. We're going to figure out my turbo issues as well.

I was wondering if you would be able to try to fix my cobalt, it’s been down for a while after being on e47 and jt going bad then me adding a bigger pump, injectors, stage 2 maf sensors and bigger injectors. If i could find someone with prior experience on this engine, I would forever be greatful!
