Upgraded Sonic Turbo | Full Bolt-ons

[@Roddy_Zeh]

Surprised with the power, I was actually thinking this had a 2.0L swap! 😮 Incredible!

[@wickedgood1984]

Underrated nugget

[@nathanshort7402]

love it! i got FBO flex fuel kit. Still lookin into the cams/springs and turbo. Car is so much fun to swing around time. TIM IS THE MAN

[@jplperformance9073]

Dam he threw the WHOLE zzp catalog at this thing. Very nice

[@VS666]

Damn got me looking for Sonics now, this would be a perfect little work car to run errands in

[@timothypadilla4192]

Always been into different oddball cars.. Sold my 07 SS for a C4 Corvette and I'm suffering from the usual sellers remorse. But ole girl was sitting at 200k.. Was gonna do another SS or what seems to be the now non existent Redline. Just might do a Sonic after seeing this, they're everywhere and newer. Much love ZZP

[@dakotajones8010]

these chevy motors are extremely unreliable and a pain in the ass to work on just poorly engineered

[@timothypadilla4192]

@@dakotajones8010 I 1000% disagree. Any Ecotec n/a SC or turbo, 3800, 350 SBC, LS, VORTEC ive owned have been easier to work on then any other car I have worked on, more reliable in just about all of the cases too. Of course motors like the Northstar and variants or the v6s they put in newer Camaros. But why get a V6 Camaro?

[@dakotajones8010]

@@timothypadilla4192 these motors specifically are junk but go off my friend owned one and ive done hella research the 1.4T sucks ass

[@timothypadilla4192]

@@dakotajones8010 my grandma's early 1.4t is at 210k miles, original everything and Running perfect. Preventative maintenance made that so. Go work on a Ford 1.0 or a 5.4 3v, work an AMG, or a mini, better yet work on a 300zx, or as I said the Northstar and variants, I've worked on them all. Those 1.4ts are an absolute gem. Reliable and easy to work on 🖕🏾

[@dakotajones8010]

@@timothypadilla4192 must be a rarity cause ive seen plenty of ppl bitching about the reliability but its a slow POS so id stay away. incredibly slow has no balls tuned it has about .5 balls

I’m from Ontario Canada, saw this EXACT car back in July on a trip down to Texas, was blown away with this thing!

[@alison_withonel]

Giving a Sonic a drop and a rear sway bar really transforms it. I’m on the ZZP lowering springs and RSB and my Sonic rivals my old Mini Cooper JCW as far as fun in the twisties.

Just waiting for the full bolt on encore build

[@19obrien90]

I mean, I drive it everyday day during the winter. We could certainly do a recap!

[@waynejordan7473]

Loved my 08 Lnf cobalt . Thinking about getting one of these to keep the love alive

[@destroyerofwourlds]

LETS GO! i just got another sonic 1.4 6MT this time not the auto 1.8 nugget happy to see a build like this

[@cndctrdjful]

love these little cars. had 2 of them. had parts from zzp. would love to get another one some day

[@alexmair3613]

Don't have a sonic but a suzuki sx4 manual. I can definitely relate to the handling these fun little machines give! Awesome work zzp 👏!!

[@kidjoker0737]

i miss my sonic, wish i would’ve had the opportunity to build it before i sold it but it was a great car to get me through college

[@SkylarKoenitzer]

Yass, do the encore video!

[@gustermaximus]

Hey Tim! Post that whole in-car track video from the clip!

[@roblivingston3637]

Cute car, wish you guys did more for the LS4 platform.

[@Deadshot-cy1vr]

So I just learned I picked up a hidden gem for 5k flat had no clue it was a 20k car and could do stuff like this 😂

[@BringerOfDearth]

Huh. I feel as if there's a reason I love this. Well, go figure. LOL! 😀

Looking at buying a saturn astra xr any advice.

[@paulohinostroza3457]

Do all sonic turbo stock reccomend premium gas

[@ZZPerformanceChannel]

Yes, we highly recommend premium in these 1.4 engines, even when stock. We've seen stock cars chip pistons due to low octane gas.

[@Tea_1745]

How much did he spend to tune this sonic up to this level?

[@56K-Legend]

Hi, do you guys send parts to Mexico, I really want to mod my Sonic :(

[@ZZPerformanceChannel]

Absolutely! International shipping is available when you checkout 👍

[@alexperaza2212]

how can i send my cobalt ss turbo

[@gbrunner24]

Email [e-mail] and we can get you scheduled.

[@benjaminblakemore9704]

Can you send to new zealand 🇳🇿?

[@ZZPerformanceChannel]

Absolutely, we're happy to ship parts internationally.

[@marcosdesantiago1777]

Ford fusion maybe? 😅

[@lsjionredlinesupercharged2049]

I started building my new at the time sonic ltz what a pos quickly got rid of that got my ion redline much better car.

[@ronb113]

Not a bad looking car either

[@JohnBoyBuilds]

Do yall make anything for the LL8 ??? "BIG BLOCK 2JZ"

[@ZZPerformanceChannel]

We unfortunately do not make anything for the Atlas engines :(

[@jplperformance9073]

Badass setup 😎 zzp rocks

[@briankinzer4175]

Nice he’s in this Cruze like 3k for less than than 400hp lol 😂 and there motto is go fast not broke I don’t think it’s gonna be fast bc #1 that 3rd gear is as good as done for and #2 you’d be broke by the time you throw enough parts at that turd to even keep up with like stock mustangs or Camaros

[@ZZPerformanceChannel]

Well it's a Sonic...soo...

[@briankinzer4175]

@@ZZPerformanceChannel so make the shit for em cheaper like your logo says. Why would a guy go pay $500 for a down pipe, 500 for the mid pipe, 400 for a cheap ass intake, 900 for the turbo and 300 for a tune. wtf are y’all smoking up there 😂 I feel bad for the guys dumping that kinda money in a shit car that’s not even on ANY cars level with almost 3k in it 😂🫵🤡
