I've plasti dipped both front and back emblems. I also plasti dipped both side mirrors and the trim along both sides. I put a black pair of racing stripes on it. I also cut the exhaust at the catalytic converter and ran it out of the side by the rear driver side door. It sounds better than any other small car I've ever heard...not like the whine of a straight pipe.Attachment 7560Attachment 7561Attachment 7562
Awesome!! looks good :)
I want some more ideas, on what I could so. Especially to increase power
bad news racing header, bigger exhaust pipe, ngk plugs and wires, cold air intake, light weight pulley, trifecta tune...Quote:

Search the site for more answers Trifecta is metioned quite a few times.
its pretty hard to put bigger wires on an 09 aveo when it does not have any..
trifecta remaps your ecu. exhaust is a good upgrade, not necessarily bigger, but made to flow better.
The trifecta site doesn't have aveo listed under the supported cars tab
Please check out the site. We, 09-11 aveos, share alot of engine parts with the sonic/ cruze 1.8 ecotec. These motors origins come from GMs european makes- opel n vauxhall. Read around and u could pick up some good info. Perhaps check out one of those engine basic books to pick up some general knowledge. Look at ur motor, that thing that says ecotec slides off revealing ur coil on plug design. This eliminates your spark plug wires . Under that "bridge" is ur spark plugs. Lightweight pulleys are made to put less parasitic drag on your motor, thus freeing up a few hp. Enthusiasm ofr ur vehicle is a good thing but take 1step at a time that way you can see the result of each mod and how ur car responds to tbat mod.
Okay, that's a great idea. Ill do it this weekend. Luckily for me, since you already said u had an 09...I know the jet stage 2 fits..I've already been looking it up on summit.. can you give me one last newbie answer...I spent my lunch break looking for something on the forum that said which trifecta tune was compatible with my car..I was unable to find the information...
trifecta seemingly does have a tune specifically for the aveo 1.6 ecotec.
that would be what you ask for.
I found the owner, on here...I sent him a pm. I couldn't find any aveos on the trifecta site..so ho_efilly he will help me figure out which one is compatible with my car. I found other threads on here talking about trifecta...with xlt aveo and ecu..but...I'm unfamiliar with what those are
