Looks great, gonna be hard to wax and detail all that red paint, lol

 

Dbeluscak, I'm just south of you in Canton (and work in Tallmadge). I'd be very interested in seeing (hearing) your project in person whenever you get done!!

 

X2 on that! I am in Columbus and part of the HHR club here, love to see it when you get it all done. good luck with the build!!

 

Kersh, just got back from Tallmadge. Do you happen to work at summit? I'm waiting for my ecu and stage 1sensors (ZZP forgot to send) but the engine should be going back in the car this weekend. Picked up my break in oil, some POR-15, and an oil catch can (will start a thread on that soon)

 

Got the new turbo installed, ignore the oil line. I need a 90 so I can properly route it round the other side.

 

Yes, I've worked at Summit since 1999, much to my wife's (and paycheck's) chagrin.

 

Lucky guess. It is my assumption that everyone who works in Tallmadge works at summit. Great place to work but I wouldn't be able to feed the kids! If I worked there, they'd just convert my paycheck into gift cards.

As far as seeing it, we're planning on doing local car shows. Maybe we can all meet up somewhere in between. Looking forward to it.

 

Maybe you already said this somewhere in the last 3 pages, but what's your goal for being back on the road?

 

Hopefully this coming weekend. I've got a 3 day weekend so that should help. On my short list;

tear down/clean/paint the starter, alternator, and ac compressor.
Install flywheel/converter
Engine and trans back together


Then, reinstall. Hopefully my ecu and 3 bar sensors come this week.

 

I just had the same set up from ZZP as well on my 2010.
Got about 1400 miles on the motor. everything is working great.
Have a some what aggressive tune from HP tuners, going back in about 3 weeks to have the E47 tune
done. Really excited about the E 47 tune :)
Good luck with your Toy.
