i used to have a 99 cavalier with a few bolt ons. i ran almostside by side with a 99 V6 5spd, up over 100 mph they'd get a carlength ahead. cavalier? nothing my killer GT couldn't handle, not without a lot of money invested.and since there aren't too many parts out there, and stock rods can only handle about 190 hp (2.2, 2.4 is a bit more but not much.),a 350 hp turbo sunfire would require a total engine overhaul,and that would be a10G motor.

Speaking of Cavaliers, I think it's funny when i see them around here with the huge exhausts and the euro lights and the two foot tall wings weighing down the back wheels serving no purpose. What they do is just make a bunch of noise. That's about all I imagine them doing. And by the way that forum is great! They're putting so much into those little I-4's when if mustangs put the same in, those cavs and sunfires would be nothing. Plus they only talk about taking on stock 3.8 Stangs. They're just as bad as, possibly worse than,Civic owners it seems.
