suggestions for basic performance
Wednesday, August 24, 2005 3:47 PM
Hey all, I've decided not to sell my cavalier at the moment and build it up a little. It currently has 102,000 miles on it, and I don't exactly want to get into boost, for fear of my engine blowing up in it's old age. :-)

So what I'm gonna do is just put parts on it that will perhaps let it run a little more efficiently. Right now, I just have a home made intake. I was thinking, however, about putting the following on.

62mm TB
Pacesetter Header
High Flow cat
2 1/4" exhaust
Upper & lower engine mount

Sound good? Anything else that you all might suggest to put on, or anything on that list that you don't reccomend?

you have a base model cavalier, a 2.2ohv....

62 mm tb is gonna kill all your low and most of your mid range power....

thats basically a turbo or top end part....
