Gauges and pods are in. Will be milling custom mounts to replace the flimsy sheet metal ones.

Basically this. If all goes according to plan then it should be perfect.

Good gravy. I had no idea that was still going on. I haven’t been following that thread. That sucks!

Got my car back! Turns out there was some arcing between the coils and the plugs as well as some corrosion due to moisture.

Hoping to get my gauges installed sometime next week. We'll see. Anyone know how to take the dash panel off?? I need to drill holes and run plumbing etc. I officially habe all the materials I need though, just waiting for the right time (and maybe a little help with this one haha)

Glad you’re back in your car. I haven’t checked into it for the Sonic, but is there a resource for the GM shop manual?

Starting to take measurements and mock up for my billet mount. Hoping to start making chips tonight.

Finally got my intake back on after dealership/painting. Got some spraybombs colormatched to the blue rockblox emblems.

Anyone have any suggestions for engine soap/degreaser? Lol

Meguiar’s and Gunk both make engine degreasers that we’ve used. I don’t know that they’re necessarily the best out there, but they work.

Btw any idea how to remove the dash panel??

Not a clue on that one…yet. I’m afraid the upper panel would have to come out with the entire dash just looking at it.
