- 2011 LHU Buick Regal 2.0 Liter Ecotec. Great car I average 23 mpg and up to 31 mpg on express way even with the mods.
Mods are ZZP high flow intake tube with K&N open air filter, LHU 3" o2 Housing/Downpipe package from ZZP and computer tuned by Vince at Trifecta Performance.
Very cool car. Its like the upscale version of the Cobalt SS.
I'll post some videos soon I've been hitting. 100 in 13.5 seconds w my new pilot as/3 y rated love the way your car sounds man
Those are some sweet tires. I know have zfr turbo and larger cams. I dyno at 337 whp. I'll post new video soon. Let me know when you put some videos up.
Thanks for repying helps a lot, I'm planning on doing yhat adding the intake and downpipe with borla exhaust and a tuning
Dude wow that's really good mpg I'm averaging 16 mpg i have the GS but ive never seen it that low
I had my 2012 Regal GS on the dyno and it put down 221hp to the wheels stock... After a K&N drop in filter and Borla exhaust I had it put back on the dyno and it put down 254HP... I cant wait to get the downpipe, intercooler and dyno tuned for the max HP out of the car... The stock turbo is not bad and a has alot of potential
That car stock out puts 279hp tho... what did you do to it??
@@TrumpsaTerroristChangeMyMind 279? Try about 250.
@@Calbenmike only if you got 2014 and after
2011-2013 it says 279 HP
@@TrumpsaTerroristChangeMyMind but not whp cranck 280
Did you get the catted ZZP downpipe or the catless?
Its really the tune that adds the most power. A tune alone adds 30 wheel hoursepower. just the intake with no tune adds about 11 whp more noise if anything. its a little over 70 whp gain with intake and downpipe package with a tune. with out a tune your looking at 20-25 whp. all this depends what kind of fuel your running 91-93 octane (premium) or e85 = 110 octane.
Sweet, I'll look into it. thank you. Just did my other mod last weekend, been working late so no video yrt, soon I hope
okay great. I'll look for it
okay great. I'll look for it
I have also a regal turbo 2011 and I havebt done any mods yet but I found the zzp intake.and planning getting it soon. How much hp are u pulling with the intake and turbo down pipe?
How do you like the car ? I currently have a 2010 genesis coupe 3.8 v6 6speed manual full straight pipe having a baby soon on the way thinking of selling it and picking up a 2015 regal gs awd. Are they reliable and fast I want something that will be fun I’ll love th body style of the 2015 and also if you could help me out with finding a tune and parts that would be cool I’m new to this.
no need for the second O2 sensor ?
How much u spend with the tuning , intake, and turbo down pipe?
I just got a 2017 buick regal sports touring as my first car. I saw one of your comments where you said it was around $800 for 100hp gains, which blew my as today the elite trifecta tune package alone cost more. Where do you suggest i start? I definitely want the trifecta tune and a k&n intake though.
I would start with zzp website. They may offer remote tunes now. They did not when I owned the car.
Does ZZP have a sale every black Friday? How much are parts discounted?
The guy who thumbs downed this got beat by a buick...
Lol or his grandfather used to beat him. I know have a zfr turbo with cam on e85. It's fast for a 4 cylinder 3700 lb car
I just got an 09 cts-v. Love fast grandpa cars. I hate fwd but i love seeing ppl tune buicks again. Props
Joe Smith love the cts v. Great car. I wish they got better gas milage. I have a friend with a 2012 coup henesey. That's a fun car. My dream car. Nothing like a supercharfer
I drove 600 miles from st louis MO to MN on 50 bucks worth of premium. Good enough for me. Better than my old 02 escalade... 20mpg with a few wots.. i can either get 20 mpg or 4. Depending on my right foots mood
Joe Smith funny that's the truth. You cat have a v8 and expect to get 30 mpg.
nice ride did you get rid of the gtp?
did you do a blow off valve?
oh man wish you were in utah Id love my car to sound like that
How much did these mods cost you? I have the same car.
Who is making cams and intercooler?
Thanks! I spoke with Steve @ ZZP Friday & tried to come up with a plan for my 2013 Regal. (down pipe with hf cat, tune) He recommended I come there for the dyno tune. To reverse the tune (possible dealer service) he recommended the $500. 00 HP tuner.
What are your thoughts?
I agree. the LHU is a different beast. Tell steve Josh says HI
Do you have an after market BOV, if yes which and is it loud?
No just stock blow off. It's louder then stick do to the open intake
ZZP ofers a stelth intercooler that fits there chevy cruse. which is 2x larger then stock regal intercooler. Only cam that is availble is from comp cam its only for the intake cam with ramped up fuel lobs. None is this is offered yet on there website but they have build a couple of larger turbo 2011+ cars.
Yes they do. ZZP has had Black Friday sales for the last 6 to 7 years. parts are 60% to 10% off. all of my mods for my buick regal where 15% off.
Hi, looking into trading my 06 cobalt ss in for something newer. I've been looking into the regal gs. I think I read in one of the comments with the current mods you made a 13.5 1/4 mile? Have you done full 3 in exhaust on the car?
Yes I know have a ZFR turbo on. I currently run 12.9. If you get regal make sure you get a manual. I have a auto and ran into lots of tuning issues. If you can I would get a Cadillac CTS awd or rwd. Hope this helps.
+jmrtinez69 w.o.t makes a elit tune for ecm and tcm
jmrtinez69 are the 2.0 turbos that come in manual only FWD?
I have the same model but manual. What did it end up costing you in parts?
About $900 with the tune.
I wanna add a intake as well. however my oem setup has two senors? a maf and a map? not sure if it'll work
the kit for the zzp high flow intake will work with both censors. It works well with out a tune or great with the tune.
Not sure if you have your regal still? I'm on the verge of getting a 2016 regal sport AWD. Still im on the fence though.
Really depends what you want to do with the car. I would recommend a Cadillac ATS4 with the 2.0liter Ecotec motor.
Did you put a bov on? or is the blow off from the turbo louder because of the intake? I have a 2011 Regal cxl 2.0 turbo 6spd manual :) it's quick but I Wana do what you did
this was stock blow off. extra noise from the open intake and added boost.
sweet, I'm doing another interior mod soon. I will upload a video and send you a link
+Paul Hatch that's would be great. happy modding!!
Thanks 😎
I ended up building a intake for my regal. Used the map sensor, that's what it's listed as by gm part number.
how does your intake sound? was wondering if you could post a video so I can compare ours
how did you like the tune from trifecta? thinking of getting it this week. any problems or CEL
matt pompi It was a good tune. The problem is if you want the tune modified for an intake, exhaust system, down pipe, larger intake pipe or anything. They do not modified tune. There customer service is not easy to get a hold of either. I would go with the HP tune from Zzperformance. This is a far better company and has over 20 employees for support. Check them out before buying.
awesome man thanks. i have a k&N and wasnt sure if that would be affected or not. thanks for the feedback
matt pompi your welcome. Good luck, drive fast and take chances!
Hello, I would like to know what the brand and type of valve is and where I could buy it.
I purchased through ZZPerformance zzperformance.com/collections/ecotec/products/82-ecotec-valve-springs-titanium-retainers
Alright thanks. Im 16 and im taking over my moms car. Im wondering what I should start off with at around $500?
You took your car directly to Vince for tunning? Are they located in Michigan?
No sends tune in a file. Then Zzp flashes computer.
Why didn't you have ZZP tune your car instead of Trifecta??
at the time hp tuner wasn't able to write code for the pcm. Tim at zzp did work with Trifecta to tune it.
Did your regal have both? I contacted a ebay seller and they didn't know sh## they said contact K+N
I just don't see the spot for the second sensor
it's a full kitchen when you buy from zzp. You use your mass air flow sensor and the O2 sensor. I'm not sure what intake your looking at but zzp they come with full instructions.
Hey, I know this is an old video, but do they have tunes for a stock '13 Regal premium turbo? and will it give any boost in horsepower?
What motor do you have?
@@jmrtinez69 sorry I don't know that right now..how do I find out?
@@MyVideosOnYT1 It should say somewhere under the hood or got to dealership and ask. If you have a Regal turbo it's probably the 2.0 liter turbo. I would do some research on your car and then contact ZZPERFORMANCE.
@@jmrtinez69 yes it's a 2.0 litr turbo..I believe premium it's definitely not a gs
@@MyVideosOnYT1 Yes ZZP can help you. Follow the link below, thus should be what you need.

So where is your boost gauge?
buick regal does not come with a boost gauge. I know my boost level from getting it dyno. with reading from a computer with hp tuner.
Which gasket did you use for the zzp downpipe on turbo outlet?
Stock gasket from GM. I did a new gasket though. I did not reuse the old.
But the zzp pipe do not have this slot like the oem one. www.regalautosport.com/shop/image/cache/data/rssastrajvxrcatlessdownpipe-600x600.jpg there you can see the slot.
+Nexia GTX the downpipe I bought was a two pice pipe with no cat.

I know it’s been a long time but did you have any problems using stock gasket any leaks or anything
thanks for the tips my Verano is way crazy fast no point in getting a regal way too heavy i run with vettes on the highway but i like what you have done i will consider it
You have a 1.4 liter turbo in your verano?
2.0 272hp w intake
Why would I have a Chevy cruiZe motor
Terry Mccleskey that's what originally came in the verano. Also when adding a open air intake to the regal 2.0 liter turbo with no tunning. It only added 4 whp. The computer see the extra air flow and pulls timing from motor. It does this to lower your boost. So to add any kind of HP to these motors you have to tune it to add timing and raise the boost.
No I had the original Verano look again it's 2.4 not a 1.4 lol
Right around $800 I purchased them on black friday sale from ZZP.
do you still have the factory air box?
On the car in this video, no.
@@jmrtinez69 thanks, I'm looking for factory Air box for these
since you deleted a o2 did the trifecta tune fix the would be code or did it not throw one since you kept the other?
jhys88 the car was tuned to ignore the o2 sensor after the cat convertor. so it did not throw a code.
jmrtinez69 does that have to be requested special when you ordered the tune from them or did it do it automatically? I'm new to this. I actually just put a deposit down on a '13 premium 1 turbo with a 6 speed.
jhys88 yes you will need to let them know. zzperformance does a better job then trifecta.
so wait zzp did the tune or trifecta?
jhys88 Great question. Both first zzp did not have aces to computer so they worked with Vince at Trifecta. Once HP Tuner supported this platform I was able to go through zzp.
Any ideas on where I can get mods for my 2014 turbo regal premium 1?
Yes ZZPerformance ! They have a regal gs with almost 400 wheel horse power.
jmrtinez69
I tried zzp. They said they don't have parts. Apparently in 2014 they used a different engine and switched the whole under hood around
God.Is.Love oh really. I was not aware of that. Zzp is only place making after market parts for new regal. Tunning the computer can always be tricky.
Is it hard to change the turbo by your self? I found one that needs a new turbo.
It's a fairly easy job. Took me 4 hours.
@@jmrtinez69 can you do it all from the top side? Or need to get under car too?
@@jefftesting12345 its easier to get bottom bolts off the exhaust side from the bottom. Not saying it couldn't be done but would be hard to get it off.
@@jmrtinez69 thanks, did you use a lift or just Jack stands? I use to live in GR
@@jefftesting12345 a lift at a friends garage.
I have this engine in my 2011 Saab 95 turbo. Last week I heard a pop as I was turning in the neighborhood and my turbo started making a wheezing sound and I’m getting no boost! Engine runs fine no smoke in the exhaust but something has definitely happened under the hood I don’t know where to start! There’s no information on these damn motors! Any clue what I should look at first? Thank you and nice regal!
You probably blew the charge pipe of the turbo. The pipe might have broken or just came off. So, you do not have any boost right now.
@@jmrtinez69 where is the pipe? I can’t find anything loose right off hand. Does it run down 5he front of the engine down to intercooler?
@@jmrtinez69 thx btw
@@JoesGoldenGarage It will be coming off the turbo. That is the side with boost/pressure that it would get blown off.
@@jmrtinez69 just can’t see crap! I gotta spend a lil more time digging. Thx man!
Hey man is there anyway I can get ahold of you looking to mod my gs 6 speed manual and I need some help from Chicago let me know
ya email me at jmrtinez69@hotmail.com. What are you thinking?
I'll upload another video tomorrow regarding the other sensor
I have it on. why?
New regal gs is coming out with awd from what i heard
Buick ?? Opel Insigna ??
Can you please explain why its hard to mod with the auto trans?
In the newer cars like 2011 and newer. The have a separate computer from the transmission and motor. Most newer cars have 3 -4 computers that are tuned separately with tuner software like hp tuner, diablo, trifecta etc. So I can not raise shift points, max revs or even torque like up.
Dam.. technology sucks
Joe Smith it can. But the great part with the new cars is with tuning a car you can get great gas milage and lots of power.
+jmrtinez69 there a tune for tcm and ecm
+jmrtinez69 there a tune for tcm and ecm
Is that on the stock mufflers?
Yes stock muffler, stock resonator.
jmrtinez69 awesome! I just purchased my regal gs and I want to do the same mods as you but don’t want to make it loud or anything like that like how yours sounds!
hey man is there any way for me to contact you I wanna get a bov for my 2013 gs regal. I have some questions.
you will need to buy a upper charge pipe with BOV opening welded on there. look on zzp website. I never got one the stock BOV on turbo is more then good enough.
+jmrtinez69 how you get the stock one to be so loud? cause mine isn't that loud.
+jonnySS06 supercharger open intake system or cold air system. zzp sells for $300
+jmrtinez69 so pretty much just the zzp intake for it and it be a bit similar as to sound? cause when I have windows up and ac on you can't even hear the turbo spool or the bov go off.....
just the tune there is a large hp gain.
Right around $800. almost 100 whp or hp is really good for under $1,000
Maybe you should consider an hhr ss with a 5 speed but a 2009 or 2010 2008's have too many problems
Is the intake what made the turbo blowoff
The turbo builds pressure and when you let off the throttle the build up pressure is then rerouted to the intake. By changing the intake to open you are able to hear the factory blowoff.
jmrtinez69 how much was that zzp setup I have a 2014
@@jeremyrizzuti1481 around $1,000
jmrtinez69 1,000 just for the intake? I would do the install myself was wondering how much the intake itself was
@@jeremyrizzuti1481 no but you will.need a down pipe and a tune. Just an intake is $350 or so.
oops didnt see this first. sound then do the intake all the turbo sound comes from the intake
Yea that's true its really expensive
Buick Regal.
A aftermarket boost gauge should be one of your first mods if you're going to mod unless you have a Laptop hooked up all of the time which I doubt you need a boost gauge.
I have my car dyno tune so i know where the boost is on e85 and premium. I always run low/safe boost levels. its not a race car. its my daily driver. but i wold like a boost gauge;-)
sold it to a local kid. i see it every once in a while.
You definitely want to car to warm up before you go WOT!
The car was at 120 degrees. It was fine. Its not an 68 gto with a push rod motor.
@@jmrtinez69 um.... it has push rods buddy LOL
I have no cats on mine. I do not have smog testing in micigan. I personaly do not like the borla exhast sound way to raspy. there really is no hp gains and its really expensive.
lol, Yes good catch. I was not wearing seat belt oops.
zzp now make a full intercooler package and larger intercooler piping. fyi
BRZ would be cool. to small of a car though with 3 kids. well he is under warenty untill 100,000 miles so thats good. these are the same motor and turbo they have been useing in the colbalt ss, HHR ss and lots of saub's 2.0 9 3 for years now.
WE'RE YOUR SEATBELT
Thank you for being his seat belt the last 10 years. keep it up
yes i heared the rumers also. I think the car is under powered and way to heavy for awd. we will see
Sticks shift do not last. Automatic is better with turbo easier on the drive train . Most drag racers prefer automatc to stick shift because of time slips . It is mainly the clutches that don"t last even heavy duty . automatc trans will out shift manuals any way .
You are so right. Unfortunately I didn't know that when I got the car. Also that year had a chain driving transmission. Yes it blew up. Lol. $2,800 later and new transmission. I sold it one year later.
Seatbelt Warning Light Is On
yes do a tune first. parents will not know and you pick up 40 hp!! good luck let me know if you have anymore questions.
2015 gs awd....and i swear im tired of guys pulling up to me unannounced revving up their engines .....trying to beat me onto freeway onramps.....im all stock......i dont wanna do it.....but i do....and i swear the looks on their faces in my rearview lol....they hear a quiet buick and think " i got one" lmao
Actually not so much about hp and speed. I just want it to sound nice like yours
I'm going outside to make a video, check in a bit
Nope just traction control light, and fog light indicator light.
This looks like a vauxhall Astra.

thanks but no thank you
Totally wrong...you'll get about 25-30 horsepower switching to a Borla exhaust...and that"air intake"is a waste of money..unless you need to delete the air box for turbo mod room, todays cars flow airas well as just about any air intake.should have left it and put your $$ into a turbo upgrade...
Purple Heart I gained 25 hp..switching to my Borla..before I ever put my Hahn turbocharger kit on my car...also at the time..(fairly old vid) I thought this was not turbocharged...now that I know that it was...I'll admit...my point was invalid...I agree..a good intake on a turbocharged car is crucial...(I can admit when I'm retarded)...or wrong lol...
Your car must have been retarding the timing cause no exhaust gives that much power.
Craig Cundiff yes unless you have a carberated car and a really restricted exhaust. You might see those gains, might. But with newer cars like 2007 and newer especially with turbo/superchargers your cars computer (cpu) will pull timing when it sees extra airflow. So by just adding an open intake or a less restricted exhaust with out tuning your cpu. You will have vary little gains. Like maybe 5 whp. If you say it's anymore, I would love to see the dyno chart to prove it.
Purple Heart yes true but only if you tune your car.
check out mt new video I uploaded, it's the sensor I was asking about earlier.
If you are ashamed of the Buick name, I wonder why you drive one?
Not sure if I'm following. Can you please elaborate?
jmrtinez69 he's being an ass because you debadged your car. Implying your ashamed of Buick.
U can spent a million bucks on performance parts but if the car still heavy ,then there's no good...
Yes very true. It's a fun car! Just not a race car.
