  3. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    The “Gen 1” 1.4L turbocharged engine (RPO:LUJ or LUV) can have some spectacular power gains from upgrading the OE turbocharger wastegate actuator, when combined with proper tuning! This article goes into how boost control works on these engines (and turbocharged engines in general) and...

    so my cruze's charge piping was popping off the intercooler for some reason I tried as hard as I could to get that stupid design of a clip to snap onto the intercooler and it wouldn't so I bought a silicon intercooler coupler to fit offer the end of the charge pipe and clamped it to the...

  7. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    I’m at a complete loss for what my 2014 Eco 6MT experienced this morning. It was cold this morning, around -30 Celsius and I had been driving for about two hours when I noticed my turbo became extremely loud when pulling away from a light. It almost sounded like I had no intake whatsoever, or...
  8. Gen1 Service Issues
    Hello all, first post as I am new around here. I have a 2012 Cruze 1.4T with 145K miles on it. I was experiencing a rough idle along with a couple engines codes that popped up. After reading some other posts on here, I determined that my check valve in the intake manifold went bad and caused my...
  9. Gen1 Powertrain
    Just curious if anyone else out there has had experience with these things yet? I got one about a month ago, but I also gapped my plugs to .35 before I got it. I am going to get new plugs next month, but I am just curious what gap others are running and if they notice a difference running this...
  10. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    I have approximately 110,500km on my 2014 Eco 6 speed manual now. I bought the car with approximately 65,000km on it, and have noticed that the car has burned about 1 quart of oil every 3,000km. I initially wasn’t sure if it was just normal for these engines to burn a small amount of oil, since...

  12. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    What cat-back exhaust sounds best on the 1.4? I’m considering either a Borla, ZZP or Magnaflow but I hear that the latter are pretty quiet. I’m looking for a setup that would be loud, but not obnoxious. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. Gen2 Powertrain
    Hey guys, I am wondering at what psi of boost pressure does a stock 2018 1.4T Cruze get an overboost C.E.L? (Check engine light) Thank you I see as much as 12 psi on a completley stock Cruze. I would say normally 10 psi is average boost ceiling.
  14. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    Coolant smell and coolant level keeps going down but not seeing any dripping of coolant anywhere but I do smell it when standing in front of the car but I looked under it and all around the engine and can't see anywhere where it could be leaking from. maybe leaking behind turbo heat shield
  15. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    So I've been looking through the forums on weird engine noises but can't find anything that's specific to what I'm hearing and mostly people are talking about the noses coming from under the car. Posted is a video and you can clearly hear the noise. It sounds like it's coming from top end just...
  16. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    can you take off the turbo heat shield on these cruzes and leave them off? I would like to remove the heat shield forever if someone has done it before on these cruzes because it makes it a ot easier to look under the valve cover for leaks if there is one
  17. Gen1 1.4L Turbo
    This transmission has the factory filled fluid in it still and has developed a whine when downshifting into 2nd gear from 3rd gear I know amsoil syncromesh is recommened for these transmissions but would amsoil synthetic 75w-90 manual transmission fluid be better for my transmission for how many...

    Hi, I have a BNR tune with nearly 23psi which starts dropping at 4000rpm and ends up at about 15psi. The stock wastegate actuator is on it's way out as it used to only drop to 17psi. My question is: Does the boost drop in high RPM only because of the weak stock actuator or is it because it's a...

    Hi Guys, Looking at putting a GMPP clutch in my cruze when I have the transmission out. Seeing some thing that are making me question if this is a direct drop in though... 1. Here is a quote from one of the reviews on ZZP's website: "The clutch and flywheel are a great choice if you need a...
