The brand new KA turbo mod is one Im hoping to avoid all together. I have the GMTU but I think thats about as far as Im taking it... unless I find a good turbo timer to install.

I just got our 08 out of the dealer with a new High Pressure Fuel Pump, new cylinder head, and some other assorted items. This all came about because I asked them to check the oil leak. I had a new Cruze for the entire week as a loaner. They covered everything without question

btw, ours had 56,000 miles when we took it in.
