We never stop innovating at ZZP, which means our LUV/LUJ platforms have NEW mods that we were unable to include in our original TOP 5 video, so it's naturally time for an UPDATE. Today, Turbo Tim AKA BOOSTED BEEK will take you through his updated top 5 mods for the 1.4 turbo Sonic and Cruze. Tim is currently making 330 WHP in his personal daily 2015 Sonic Hatchback RS!

Just got my 2011 Chevy Cruze manual. This vid popped up right as I was thinking about decking it out. I will definitely be reaching out for everything here 😅

@lanegeisewite1436 8 месяцев назад

I love the 1.4s!

@muzwakai 8 месяцев назад

Awesome info thanks, Tim. Looks like details on the Z04 product page needs updating as this is said "We have seen that there is little to no spool difference between the Z04 and a comparably modded V3 car"

@TurboTimZZP 8 месяцев назад

Thank you, updated.

@t0kinblkguy 8 месяцев назад

I'm ordering cam valve springs rods pistons and injectors and will get the z04 going early 2024! I'm so excited with how everything has gone so far and can't wait to rip this sucker.

Just bought Drag Sonic's twin not long ago. Manual 2012 LTZ 1.4! Won't be stock for long, either! I'd really love to see more Sonic content. I feel like it's been a while since any Sonic racing stuff has been posted. It'd be awesome to see more drag stuff, but it'd also be dope to see maybe some ZZP Sonic track/rally action if you guys ever get into that. Getting E85 around here in the southeast is extremely difficult, but my goal still is to make a corner carving version of Drag Sonic out of my own! Or at least try my best on 93 pump gas. Lol

@TurboTimZZP 8 месяцев назад

We are in Michigan, so we are out of tracks until the spring.

@vincentvampyyri2314 8 месяцев назад

@TurboTimZZP that tracks. You guys ever thought about building a rally car and doing snow rally during the winters? Do you guys even have any kind of rally events in Michigan? Could be a neat project and a first for you guys. Of course, that's if there's enough time and resources for a special project like that, obviously.

@justinreynolds2143 8 месяцев назад

I'm sure you guys have touched on this on here or on the pod.. But I would love to see a list of mods to do in what stages. Ultimate goal would be inline with the basic streetable but able to rip when called upon. Just not sure the order of operation that makes the most sense. Fix pcv, turbo upgrade, stage 2 kit... wouldn't be able to do it all at once so breaking it down would be helpful. Thanks. 2015 ltz manual sonic. In a perfect world I could do everything at once but the budget doesnt allow and the mod journey seems like fun.

@TurboTimZZP 8 месяцев назад

Good idea, we will have to do that. Email me directly and I can build something to save for anyone that wants it. Its basically my green car build from our other video "Turbo Tims mean green machine". Tim@ZZPerformance.com

@a2dxshake569 2 месяца назад

Currently have a 1.4 2014 LTZ hatch sonic @ 50kmiles...love it! But kind of torn in making the choice to optimize it with all the recommends on this video just not sure if the cost to modify with all you mentioned is the way to go vs selling it and purchasing a newer vehicle. I guess in short im asking whats the ballpark cost to have everything you mentioned in this video installed on my stock sonic?

@@SubjectSigma11 We have carbon synchros in stock for 1-2, however they're in house builds only at the moment until we get a program going to install them for customers. We run a bone stock M32 transmission with the carbon synchros in the drag car and it holds 600+ whp no problem. They're actually quite good little transmissions.

@DoradoFever 8 месяцев назад

From a tuner perspective, is it best to do everything installed and tuned at the same time, or in phases? Got the V04 but still need some of the supporting stuff like injectors and intercooler w/ larger throttle body.

@codygentry9472 8 месяцев назад

Do it as you can afford it. Generally exhaust stuff wont need a tune update. My order was intercooler, intake, cai, pcv fix, catback, Zo4, tune, injectors,

@TurboTimZZP 8 месяцев назад

Check out our Cruze build video series I did. The pretty much the first mod we did on that car was Z04, well and tune. Then injectors, intercooler, ported intake, CAI, then catback.

@justinnorth5107 4 месяца назад

Would it be possible to just change my stock intercooler for the after market one and be ok with the results are is the after market intercooler to perform with aftermarket turbos. Thanks for the information youve given.

@ZZPerformanceChannel 4 месяца назад

Yes, you can absolutely swap your stock intercooler out for our ZZP intercooler core. You may have to cut and modify the stock couplers to fit, we would recommend using T-bolt clamps to secure. zzperformance.com/collections/sonic-cruze-intercooling/products/sonic-front-mount-intercooler

@TheLosloco2001 8 месяцев назад

What would be needed to make 180whp on a 2017 sonic 1.4 manual?

That would only require a CAI and tune, if its a manual.

Will you all ever make performance parts for the LFV 1.5 turbo engines?

@TurboTimZZP 8 месяцев назад

Maybe eventually, but our R&D team is maxed right now with the other platforms we currently sell parts for.

@abigbrain1967 8 месяцев назад

Most mods for the LE2 can be used on the LFV as both motors are nearly identical (same block, heads, intake....etc) The 1.5 does have a different turbo than the 1.4, but any turbo made for the 1.4 engine WILL FIT on a 1.5 BNR ( Bad News Racing) and Dave DiMaio @ Davescustom parts are LEADING THE WAY in R&D and have many parts already on the market. Dave was the first to figure out E85 on the 2nd gen Cruze and his intercooler have been available for more than a year now..... Now you know....the truth

@jakereese845 2 месяца назад

Just got a 2016 Chevy Cruse Premier RS and I am curious if these parts are relevant and if they will work, also hate to act dumb but I assume these mods are in sequential order for what to buy

@ZZPerformanceChannel 2 месяца назад

If you have a 2016 RS you likely have the newer LE2 engine, which these parts will not work for. Shoot us an email at customerservice@zzperformance.com and we can help you pick out your mods.

Just got a 2017 Chevy Cruze. It’s LS, so you think I can do the same upgrades?

@ZZPerformanceChannel 4 месяца назад

2017 would be a Gen II Cruze, this video is for the Gen I specifically. We currently have a turbo upgrade and intercooler in development and once they are finalized, we'll release a top 5 mods for the Gen II.

@bigballs6965 8 месяцев назад

So let's just say I had all that I could do to the 1.4 could the zo4 turbo make 400hp

@TurboTimZZP 8 месяцев назад

Well my personal car is only making 331whp, which is about 380hp at the crank. So its close. But to answer your question, everything we sell on good E85 to match my 331whp. My car is tuned the same as every other customer that runs the same mods and has good pump E85.

@cameronalford4506 8 месяцев назад

⁠@@TurboTimZZPTim will you guys ever make mods for the LFX’s and LLT , LY7?

@TurboTimZZP 8 месяцев назад

Possibly, but we are pretty loaded up with new stuff for the platforms we are supporting now, so I dont see us starting a new platform anytime soon unfortunately.

@nobreaks3305 5 месяцев назад

Would i do like intake exhaust etc first or get the tune first? I wanna completely change my auto into a “Toy” if possible. I’ve seen ls swaps, and k24 swaps and you guys have a 500hp sonic? So yea ik there’s room to work.

@ZZPerformanceChannel 5 месяцев назад

Starting with a tune is what we recommend as it allows you to tune for future mods and achieve bigger gains. Feel free to reach out to customerservice@zzperformance.com for any questions while you plan your build.

my mother passed away. i bought this car off the lot for her cause it was the perfect leg height for her to get in and out. its a 2015 1.4 with 30k miles on it. i think i am going to turn it into a little hot hatch. i kinda wanna go bet power but i gotta see if its worth going with the sonic or just another car. i've never been a big front wheel drive guy, but i enjoy the car. i think a honda would be a better choice just cause the amount of parts and knowledge is great but i could say i have a fast chevy hatch back
