My 04 turbo colorado (build, destroy and rebuild thread)

[boostedcompg]

Ls1's are much closer to 1200 or below all day long....at least around here

[matt5112]

car-part.com says otherwise, but oh well.

[boostedcompg]

shop local. craigslists and local craigslist type sites. always cheaper..well useually. 70 percent of the time it works everytime

i'd jump all over that LS2 powertrain if i were you. not like you'd be upset with the output

[redlinepontiac]

or buy a 5.7 from a truck, buy my 6.0 heads and have a bad*** turbo motor

[Kejross]

I vote ls2 with a 6spd... Can't wait to see whatever your gonna do

[BLKGP]

a 6 speed T56 would be tits but for simplicity purposes im gonna keep it auto, especially if i can get the entire drive train, although i wont need the transfer case, AWD would cost more that what it'd be worth lol

[f3racer]

man a new age syclone! would be awesome

[Someone Much Cooler]

beautiful truck. I like it alot.

[BLKGP]

not much to update from the past year still rockin the I5, i don't have the time or money for an LSX swap at the moment.. I did however get a new front bumper. One of the members on 355nation mated an xtreme cover with a trailblazer SS bumper and came up with this.. I traded him my street scene cover for it, i also traded my stock seats for some black leather seats

[dsmuts]

Still rocking the turbo?

[MrPoopyButthole]

Truck looks sleek as ever.

Still rocking the turbo?

Nope, I ended up selling the turbo, it was an absolute nightmare to get it tuned.. Several colorados on 355nation have been boosted, but end up with the same result, these engines just aren't made for boost not 10 psi anyways lol

[Fivefingerdeathpunch]

Looks great.

[TexasTanker19kilo20]

Just read the entire thread, you got one slick truck. Too bad the turbo did not work out.

[TLSheff]

That bumper looks amazing, very nice work (whoever did it). At first I was like it doesn't look any different, but looking back a few pages I can really see a difference. You know its a really good custom mod when it looks like a factory upgrade.

Oh, and is that a twin in the garage???

the twin was the guy i swapped bumpers with

[BLKGP]

haven't updated this thread in a while.. anywho

i ended up destroying this bumper cover while backing down a small incline, pretty much ripped it off and cracked it all over the damn place..





so i replaced it with an xtreme cover.. i miss the SS cover but, it was beyond repair

[xxpappas13xx]

WOW! looks great! Always liked the look of the colorado's and this one really proved it! Nice ride!!!!!!

[WhiteLightningGTP]

I am so in love. Gorgeous truck!
