This Colorado is the epitome of an unsuspecting, sleeper truck.Talk about a sleeper: no one would suspect what is under the hood of this Chevy Colorado. This particular truck is a “fleet-spec” model: white with unpainted bumpers and trim, and steel wheels. It couldn’t look any more pedestrian in appearance.Pop the hood, and you’ll see a very a tired, looking junkyard 5.3L LS V8 where a four cylinder once resided. That junkyard LS is boosted thanks to a Borg Warner S480 turbocharger. But wait, there’s more: follow those hard lines in the engine bay and you’ll see a nitrous setup plumbed into the intake. Here is an ultra-budget, LS-swapped Colorado. Perfect.
