motor swap?

[03cavyTT]

What would be a good motor swap for an 03 cavalier. I want something with alot of power

[Ace$nyper]

then you don't want a cavy

Well that ecotec engine is a good engine. You could swap a 350 Chevy. But that would be alot of work. You could wait for a while and get a 2.4l ecotec with vvt. Or you could get a turbo to put on that. www.cavalierconnection.com

when are the 2.4L ecotec motors comming out and how much would the 350 run in price

I dunno but the 250 is a v8. A lot of fab work. Prolly would cost between 10k - 25k depending on your skill. The 2.4l ecotec is coming out in the summer of 2004.

Saturn Ion Redline and Chevy Cobalt. No you prolly wont have to change the tranny but you will have to swith ECU's. And a buncha other stuff. You would be better of just turboing it or getting a different car.

Ok thanks i was thinking about turbo stage 2 now if if so what. What do you think about a supercharger for the cavy?

10psi max on stock block ecotec. Youll blow your engine. No the superchargers avaliable are expensive and are not worth it. What do you mean by stage 2 turbo?

[03cavyTT]

There are different stages of turbos (bigger turbos) I cant find the link now but i have seen different stage turbos for the 03 cavaliers

[EC0T3C]

www.cavalierconnection.com is the best bang for the buck in cavalier turbo systems.

[03cavyTT]

How much do those turbos cost and what is the HP and TQ gain. I have found a link with stage 2 turbos http://www.racetep.com/turboneticframe.html

[EC0T3C]

the Cavalier Connection has the whole kit. Not just the turbo. They were getting 10hp per psi. Im not sure on the tq. Email them and i belive the whole set up for 10 psi is 2500 bux including intercooler and stuff. I wouls suggest getting a T3 super 60 or a t3/04 turbo.

[03cavyTT]

I know a small amout about turbos but what is the t3/04 or is it the t3/t4. Do you know how mush psi you can run with that turbo

[03cavyTT]

for got the second part you already answered that sorry
