Your from FL with 5 posts. You should probably learn the rules of the road before becoming a smart ass. I know what a Sonic is. They're actually pretty dope. Didn't know they came boosted though.

Good luck with it. 20+ pounds should make it a fun little whip.
lol thanks!
Very few people do. Most of the time, people aren't able to guess what kind of car this is at meets, and when they do, they don't expect it to be boosted. XD

Wow. What the compression ratio? Im guessing really really low
Well, it is a 1.4L... How else would it get that kind of mpg? :P lol
That's my guess at it. Also, stock horsepower is ~138hp to the crank. (so about 117 to the wheels?)

They don't make 2013 models yet... And besides, I posted "obo" for a reason.
In the case that you actually can find an LTZ Turbo for that price out the door, that is ridiculously cheap, and you probably should jump on it.

No worries. I wouldn't want to lead anyone astray. (And it still is my car...)
I actually appreciate having a GM tech give some input.

What do you have to say about this then:
Definitive Answer- Can the dealer detect my tune? - Page 2 - Chevy Sonic Owners Forum

Also, there is still the option of flashing back to stock should the person really be worried since I'm throwing in the cable and software.
