Noise dosn't make horsepower.... horsepower makes noise... Supercharge or turbo charge it...

Best turbo setup i've seen in person..

Re: 2001 Z24 cavalier

hell yea that car WAS mad awsome.... he wrecked not too long ago, hydroplaned into the ass of someone at 40 MPH and insurace totalled his car.... i forgot how much they gave him for it, but he bought it back from them for 1,000 bucks and still had more than 5K kicken around and he is currently in the process of rebuilding it.... since he build that entire setup himself... it should be even sicker when he's done.

Re: 2001 Z24 cavalier

its a good choice to get the supercharger, i got it and i havent looked back on it yet. Took my 1/4 mile time for a 16.1 to a 14.7, trap speed form 82MPH to 91MPH. Its a totally new car, and after that every mod you put on it will work so much better than before.
