Well, I guess there is hope that I will be able to buy 5bw center belt and cut off and move my 4bw cover over. Sounds like other than the cover, they are the same.

Whatever it is it is not the wastegate. A wastegate allows the exhaust gas to bypass the turbocharge impeller in order to control turbo speed and boost. It could be the blowoff valve I suppose. Did you replace that with an aftermarket unit? Does the car drive normally and build at least 14 or so...

I see that some of you guys bought wrong belts (84815208) which were for a 4bw and have a different cover. Any chance one of you didn't install that belt? I would like to buy it. It looks like the 5 belt bolts into the 4, but the cover is different.

I used flat. But I also used concentric rings on the wheels. Technically, if you have a spacer with a lip that matches the wheel bore, you wouldn't need the rings.

I have used 5mm with Enkei wheels with stock studs. I didn't like that at all. My thread engagement was half of what it was without the spacer. I don't think I would do more than 3mm on stock studs. Another alaternative would be to use extended lug nuts, such as what Gorilla offers. I bought...

It had base seats. Carmax doesn't give cars away. I am sure it was/is priced appropriatly for its features/condition. Also, if it doesn't show up anymore, doesn't mean its sold, just that someone reserved to take a look at it. It will probably be back on the site next week.

How do you get to 525 torque without unlocking the ecm?

It's a bit early for plugs. Let the dealer figure it out. It's GM's problem for now.

How many miles? Plugs are always the first suspect in cases like this. If the car has been tuned by someone who doesn't know what they are doing with this platform, the throttle would be closing when the peak torque is reached.. IF the car has been tuned.

We will all soon learn what tyranny really means means.

Do it! It doesn't look too bad!

There is a card and it does run and record. No reason to turn it off, just no reason to see what's on there.

I also don't understand why folks are so adamant on getting the pdr. The car I bought had it and I am pretty sure I will never look at what's on that card unless I get into an accident or something. Completely useless to me. I would not pay a penny for it if I was specing out the car new.

Is that under screen strip a cf wrap? Do you know what that material is?

Alcantara steering wheel and shifter is one option would pay to delete.

Whats the deal with that....They randomly stick red center belts in when they have them laying around? While they show permanently unavailable from distributors?

I would be a lier if I said I havent considered that :)

It doesn't seem promising so far. I have had responses ranging from "you can't do it without taking the piping off and then stiching it back in" to "It will be less than replacing the piping, but I will get back to you". My original dyi plan isn't going to be feasible and doing it right is going...

I just went through the same runaround on the TPMS. Gave up and decided to just get the universal Schoeder 33700 EZ Sensor that works on everything. Once programmed by Discount Tire for free, it should sync up automatically or via a $15 hand held

I will. White piping on black seats looks weak. I will find a way to die it red one way or the other.
