hey, I have a '97 2.2 liter auto sunfire that i want to do strickly performance to. Sorta make it a sleeper. But i cant find any perfomance parts for a 2.2l, there all for 2.4l or ecotechs, so i was wondering if anyone had any info on the 2.2l engines. Im looking to possibly turbocharging it in the future, but i want to get as much performance out of it as possible with out that. I need info on the 2.2l engines though, so i can make some modifications to make 2.4l, or other style, parts fit. Any help or info would be well appreciated.

turbo is about it my friend, not really ANY performance for the 2.2L
go to www.J-body.org , www.carcustoms.net , and do a search. the 2.2L can use roller rockers, they might have pistons and rods. and a few other things. Most of the companies have moved on, but there might be a few that carry a part or two.
Try to find a guy named Scrufdog, he had one of the fastest 2.2L cav's ever.
Your best bet is a motor swap, lucky for you, the GM v-6's used the same bellhousing as the 2.2L. all you would need is a donor car and a summer of working on it to make a 3400 or 3800 powered Sunfire, and for that, you make decent power (200+ HP range).
