This links to what I consider to be a good summary of issues relating to designing/selecting a car exhaust system: Exhaust back pressure - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums - Camaro5.com Laborsmith

I belatedly found this on GMAuthority and thought I would post the link in case there are forum members who use SIRI. General Motors To Offer Apple Siri Eyes-Free Functionality Starting With Chevy Sonic, Spark | GM Authority Laborsmith

The order guide is up: Model Information - Online Ordering Guide I haven't gone through it yet, but this gives us a chance to determine what Chevy has planned for the Sonic as well as the Cruze, which order guide also went online today. The What's New is active but as of this moment the...

I noticed SOF reached 2000 members not too long ago. I suspect no reward, but welcome 23thunder as the 2000th. Laborsmith

I would never consider cross posting unless there was an occasion that I wanted to cross post. Just saying. Laborsmith

The ZZP intake is installed and running. It appears to me shorter than I expected but per the dyno chart and my driving experience is very effective, especially at freeway speeds where passing in sixth gear was done without any engine hesitation. Just before I got on I-96 I filled up, and the...

I looked up the rear shock absorbers for the Sonic and apparently there are two sizes, one for those that came with the 15" rims (such as mine) and those that came with the 16" and 17" rims. Is there any way to ascertain if there is a size difference before going to the dealer to inquire...

I have been asked about my experience with the Pedders lowering coils and decided to post a review. I had the coils installed April 10 at Rodgers Chevrolet in Michigan and since then have driven about 750 miles. I had not intended to use lowering coils but when I discovered Pedders had...

I lifted my comment from another thread in this forum: "GM made a performance version of the Fiero for one year then cancelled that vehicle line. There were several years of a performance version of the Cobalt but once Camaro reached the point of meeting demand, it appears that vehicle line was...

This will more appropriately consolidate some pictures and thoughts about my recent trip to Rodgers Chevrolet. First up, The Spymaster's ZL1, partially Pedderised, and BeckyD's SS, which is fully Pedderised: Next are the boxes the lowering coils came in: Now some views after: I think...

I do not know if this has already been posted, and I am not sure if using smartphone for navigation is a benefit, but here goes: Chevrolet Spark, Sonic Get a New App for Maps Someone who might know should post if this development is a good thing. Laborsmith

Questions have come up about how the Bosch E78 engine control module handles different grades of fuel. I am posting links to two sources now, and will add links as I find more info. 2011 Chevrolet Cruze: Hot Weather MPG Part 2 Fuel Grade - Page 2 I also recall reading info directly related...

I know Pedders has coil overs for the Sonic, but am wondering if there are any other suspension ideas on the horizon. I ask because Pete posted this on another forum: "Next up lowering coils, then coilovers, then boost the boost, then bushes and bars." Laborsmith

The answer to this specific question is buried. There is a proposed turbo for the 1.8 but Steve Toutant who has access to the info is currently preoccupied with a death in the family concerns. I expect he will be around to answer your question after the weekend. Laborsmith

Welcome aboard and I for one am pleased you have opted to invite the Sonic Owners to participate in the Pedders Nation. Many of the Sonics Chevy brought to the most recent SEMA had suspensions by Pedders and I believe Pete had his hand in each of the Pedderized ones. Laborsmith

I spent the weekend in Indianapolis for the Big Ten games, in between the Friday sessions drove to Louisville to obtain some Four Roses Small Batch which is not available in Michigan, spent from just after 3:30PM to just after 5PM on I-69 just before the Henryville exit (if you watch the news...

Maybe one of our engineers knows the answer. I know almost anything can be done, I have seen V8 Corvairs in real life. But would it be a reasonable swap? Of course, if it could w/o major surgery, then the next question would be how to get one. Laborsmith

The following is a condensed version of something I previously posted and I have copied it from a similarly titled thread on the Camaro5 web site. "Originally Posted by panther2469 Your dealer can call the GM Dealer Business Center and get the railcar #. Then you can track it here using the...

I personally found this to be interesting, although it has little impact on the Sonic, it does say something about the intent of th bosses at General Motors: GM Names New Vice President for Customer Experience After her succesfullying shepherding the Sonic (and the Verano) to the market, does...
