Shit i'm not sure you can find anything on ebay, Maybe try a muffler and a cheap install but you won't really gain any speed

Re: my 1997 cavalier 2.2L
i own a 97 cavi rs five speed and my car can run pretty quick. I duno wtf the russians did to your car but with the gov chip still set at 109 i can pull that just hitting 5th gear. So um maybe you need a new motor? That is a nice intake though.

Re: my 1997 cavalier 2.2L
First of all you can get a intake of eby for like $40 not including shipping. And second sucks for you guys whos cars only hit 108-109  I topped mine at a buck 17. I know its not that much but still....
