      Question Increase Horsepower (2011 Aveo Sedan)

      How can I increase the horsepower in my 2011 Chevrolet Aveo Sedan?? It has a 1.6 L 4-cylinder engine in it and is completely stock. I have around 800$ to play around with.

      This is for 09+ Aveo with ecotec. The cruze or sonic 1.8 is the "same" as the 1.6. But from research of tuning, it even uses the same ecu map as the aveo. Should be the most direct swap.
      Its 138 hp. So you can swap in the long block, and expect @ the same hp.. which is a @ 30 hp increase.

      They go for about $350 on eBay, with the $50 CAI, $150 spent on removing the restrictive muffler, and then @$300 for the trifecta tune at one time, aveo is still not listed on their site, but I believe 1-2 guys here successfully got tuned using the 1.8 map.

      Thats $800 in parts. Labor is up to you. I would expect all of that together to result in @ 150hp?
