The donor is in! I will be building a street extended goblin turbo. Color scheme will be murdered with white accents. After a long process I finally got my 2009 cobalt from Arizona, won my auction at $2k and after fees ended up spending $2800 (I hope to recoup as much as i can selling parts. The listing had stated that the engine started only and there is suspension problems which totaled the car. I took a shot in the dark and when the car arrived I feel like i hit a home run. The frame looks great! the suspension is shot which is ok, the car does start and drives, the driver side tie rod is snapped and the wires for cylinder 2 are snapped causing only 3 cylinders to run. I should be able to do a quick repair to the plug and make sure cylinder #2 works before tearing the car down. Oil and all fluids look great and not sure if it comes stock with brembo brakes but this donor has them as well for a plus. there is a gauge cluster so i hope the previous owner did not run the boost too high time will tell. the car does have over 120k miles so I will be changing some stuff too keep things going. Overall very happy with my purchase!
