I'd just like a mod where I didn't have to keep replacing the valve cover ever 70k miles.

[lqelhig]

#1 should be water outlet. #2 thermostat. #3 pcv fix kit from supercruze. 4# engine mounts. #5 high voltage coil pack.

I got a Chevy Cruze build in the making !! And I'm going ALL ZZP

Ashley was an absolute badass! One of my favorite videos,

"Quiet is restrictive."
Not necessarily.
I've had several very quiet exhaust systems built that were no restriction to their engines.
And on the flip side of your comment, I'll counter with:
"Just because its loud, doesnt mean its fast..."
It would be more accurate to say that stock is restrictive.
In fact, I would ask you guys to consider building a quieter free flowing exhaust system option for those who either just prefer, or need a quieter system to conform with the law, ect.
Otherwise, excellent video and recomendations.

The Chevy Trax is bacially a lifted sonic so all the parts are comparable right?

[chevroletsonice]

I like the fact that the manufacturer pumped in so much safety gear into the Sonic, with a turbo 😉

[christech]

I'm an LNF guy tuned by matt@ zzp but I love what you guys are doing with this platform. Keep up the great work!!

I've been trying to purchase the intercooler for the '17 Cruze. Your rep says it is not available. When will it be?

[USRassassin]

I was always wondering why chevy recommended regular fuel when turbo engines works better with premium fuel

[pct]

Be nice if zzp had 2017+ cruze parts instock i been waiting a year for a midpipe & intercooler

[douglasvogel]

Should also add if you want to go past that turbo swap and swap out pistons, can also port the intake manifold and remove the restrictive flaps

[zanecooitmaxx]

Hahah crackle tune sounds like a firecracker lol

[nathanielbarbeau]

Was not expecting #5 from a factory turbo car. I also didn’t know people modified these cars.

[evandowd]

Idk Ashley. I would add the zzp rear caliper conversion to the list. That sweet white one always parked by yours has em 😉

[dilly]

She doesn’t seem very pleased at all haha

[JordieG]

I would be surprised if the stock turbo had the airflow for power past 6000rpm.

[dakotav]

Hey Ashley can u tell me if zzp is working on some kind of heat shielding for the heat box and the intake tube on the zzp cold air intake for the chevy sonic as I like I am sure others are noticing heat soak with a rise in summer temperatures and in my opinion zzp is The Best so why not start selling liners for the heat box and heat resistant custom made sleeves for the intake tubes to reduce iat temps please get back to me Tim from scranton pa

[derrickscorner]

HAHA throwing that shade.. Sorry but I 100% agree with the statement on the Crackle tune.... I do not even know who asked for this or how people take this serious....
