I took the car home since I'm moving in a few weeks but I don't have it running great yet. It drives fine but for some reason I'm only getting 0.7lbs of boost. Something strange that i can't yet diagnose. Car pulls way harder than stock so I'm thinking it may be an issue with my Aeroforce or PCM.. idk? I recently noticed that a coilpack is basically not working so I'm not driving it again until I get those replaced and confirmation from zzp that my vac. lines are set up correctly.
In the mean time, I've already began saving for my next car. This is probably as far as I'll mod my Monte besides doing general maintenance as it nears 100k. I plan to keep it forever but I'm hoping I can get a new car after next summer that I can drive to school, work, etc.

Unless you swapped the coils for TRUE L67 coils, the stock coils on the car can be obtained from any 3100/3800/3800 L36 and L26 engines. I would advise stopping at a salvage yard and pull a salvage coil. I've used the after market ones a couple of times and had them fail, where the original stock ones hardly ever fail (based on that, I'd be happier with a reasonable salvage coil then a auto store replacement).
Just my 2 cents.

shame you're not in driving distance or I'd say stop over, somehow I've collected extras over the years!!
Honestly, you get a clean salvage one, there is no need to replace it if it works.

Looks good, there is one thing that kills it alittle for me and that is the crossover for the fuel line everytime i look at a pic it just looks out of place,
