Have you gotten the down pipe mid pipe combo from zzp? I recently ordered that and the exhaust system and was wanting to know how to install them together
Hey where in Michigan u located by chance? Im in lansing
Would this work on a chevy spark? If so, do you mind giving me the link to purchase?
Hi friend, how long did it take you to remove the manifold? It can come out without any problem, could you give me some advice? I want to change it but it seems like there is very little space. Greetings
would this work on 2019 1.4L chevy spark non turbo? really want to do this this to my car because the original intake manifold looks and performs like its for a toy car lol
Does this ZZP Turboback exhaust require an engine tune to function correctly without setting off the check engine light?
Did that intercooler also help with fuel economy
Mine is overheating like crazy so instead of tune first ill do intercooler and maybe exhaust and then tune
What? Lol.
@@P1ayCrackThe5ky the car is doo doo long story short so i want to buy parts 90% say tune first but i need the car running lol.
@@nobreaks3305 You original comment just confused me with the overheating part.
Did I give you a check engine light ?
This is the only thing I'm worried about. I have no doubt deleting what is essentially a restrictor is going to smooth things up power wise. I'm just curious if I'll be able to pass inspection after I do it.
I just bought a sonic with this exhaust on. I wouldn't have put it on but it's nice because i live in the rust belt upstate new york. The car has low miles, no rust because it came from new jersey, and the only 6 speed i could find. Cool video. A sawsall works good on exhaust
Rear bar is required for autocross, these cars are for cat ladies and the understeer is unreal.
I'm thinking about getting one since my current intake manifold no longer has the orange check valve and it causing pressure issues with the valve cover gasket. How long did it take to remove it? Doesn't seem long with the edits, but you definitely looked tired at the end of it.
How do you like the aftermarket headlights? Ive been checking them out online, but ive heard mixed reviews... Thank you in advance.
does it accelerate faster? i’ve noticed my 2012 struggles to pick up speed off the start and was hoping to tune it to help the problem
멋집니다 👍
👍
Just ordered zzp lowering springs yesterday, now I'm regretting not getting this. I would but im going to wait a few weeks when I get the cat back to finish my turbo back exhaust (that way shipping isn't as expensive)

Isn't it uncomfortable to remove the oil filter when you change the engine oil?
YES! such a nightmare to change the oil now.
@@drivemedia4889 oh no ㅜㅜ
What gauges do you have on your dash?
I have a OBD port gauge so it can tell me just about anything and i got a boost gauge.
Can you swap shift knobs or is it the same ordeal as the stock one?
you can swap shift knobs!

The two tone black side mirrors have that VW look
Hi, so I have the same sonic. I been thinking of using wheen spacers. I was thinking it will give the car more stability. What are your thoughts? By the way you are amazing. Thank you for your videos!!!!
It may give it more stability but also you run the risk of breaking one of your wheel studs and that wouldn't be very stable lol as long as its 10 mm or less you might be okay! Thanks bro!
nice
Very cool. Love the car and just subscribed to the channel. I see your local to me. I think I’ve seen you a time or two on Telegraph road as well. But I see the landmarks in your video and I think hey I know where he’s at. Be pretty cool to meet up one day as I have a sonic as well.
Very cool man, I'm on telegraph road quite a bit haha. Thanks for subscribing!😀
Привет ! С новым годом! Можешь подсказать каталожный номер передних фар?
I got them on Amazon i believe
Awesome build log, and can't wait for a dyno!
Thanks!!
Nice I have a 2016 Sonic RS @ 200hp with ZZP upgrades
Nice! They are fun little cars!
@@drivemedia4889 difitly under rated. Great 👍 fun. Great mpg.
Where do I get OEM black bowtie emblems?
I actually vinyl wrapped mine, fairly easy to do!
Did the same thing used carbon fiber wrap looks awesome !!
나이스~
Happy new year!
Yeah ~
Happy New Year!
잘봣어요 고생하셨습니다 감사합니다 b
잘봣어요 고생하셨습니다 감사합니다 lol
Nice video, but would have loved to see footage comparing length of throws from stock to the OTTP
4:35 HOW TF DID YOU GET THE GRAY PIECE OFF?! I’m in the middle of trying to get this stupid thing off
Dude, really isnt a good way to get it off. Its glued on like crazy, i just worked at it for about 2 hours
I got a 2015 buick encore with the same 1.4l luv turbo fwd model they do make awd wish I had that one. But yeah zzp does have some parts listed that fit it. But luckily I've found my model years layout blueprints and it's the same as your sonic which helps.
Thanks for the video!
A strap wrench and some heat will make shirt order of that some shift knob. Nice, detailed video on the installation.
Holy shit i knew that was the auburn hills exit from the top golf lmao
I have the brushed steel engraved ball for my Dragon Green 15 RS pros- fantastic solid girthy weight feel from 170g to 421g cons- scalding hot ball of fire in the summer if you don't cover it
YEEEESSS! So true, already have been experiencing this!
Looks very nice! Could you share with me the forum or groups for sonic owners? I have a 2016 sonic RS, but in my country (Mexico) have not a lot of information about this cars. Thank you and don't stop making videos!
There is a forum online also on Facebook too there's a bunch.
Will work for LT 1.8 5 speed?
i dont think so
Beautiful sonic RS, I have a RS 2013. Thanks for the videos
Welcome back! I’m envious of your Sonic. Get my 2016 LTZ tomorrow.
nice man!!
i had the DDM brace when it first came out i hated it you had to drill holes in the axle beam itself this one connects to the actual existing spring perches i like......
I’ve always wanted to do a tune on my 2013 sonic but nervous of the turbo, had it replaced to pass smog but still throws under boost code when u go in higher RPMs…. Personally I think Chevy has the turbos choked down.
Thats interesting! They definitely do because as soon as i got this tune the car was way faster!
Try replacing your wastegate actuator with a Mamba Tech or ZZP one, they are able to keep the wastegate closed at higher PSIs and help avoid underboost
As a sonic owner that has a hard time finding videos of people modding their cars, I appreciate this channel🙌🏻
Thanks! we appreciate you!
X2... XD thanks ..
Banging video, totally considering one of these now.
Thanks bro! Definitely worth it, just getting the stock shift knob off is a bit of work.
10 HP is a pretty significant change on any car, but it's especially great when you're dealing with 145 stock if I'm not mistaken.
138 stock at the crank, shes pretty zippy now
