I am decent with fitment and fabrication...if you want me to come by and lend a hand feel free to let me know...
And to who ever it was talking about "its hard to find parts for my build"...im not trying to start sh*t here but try building a cavalier with something more than CAI and exhaust...good luck ever finding real parts for it...
lol I know its his old one...thats why I posted it
just saw this on CL and thought it looked pretty sweet

love the paint job lol
since no one else has any carnage....I fucked up my wheel sliding into a curb yesterday...
yeah, sorry about the lack of info...
its an 02 Cavalier z24 fully built and turbo'd
they run MAP
converted to E85
hope for 20psi
wideband is installed and is viewable but need to get it to log with HPT
and I am currently living in South Fargo
I did everything myself beside the machine work. Disassembly, research, minor custom fab work, assembly, and installation all done with my own 2 hands. I learned mostly from doing research like any good noob should do. But for actually knowing how to put a motor together I dont ever actually having someone teach me, it just kinda came natural...but I do have some recent schooling just to make it look good on paper. lol
Sheeran, yeah I too am glad to see there is someone local that actually appreciates this platform. But good luck finding parts for either one...like I am sure you read my motor is pretty much a "hybrid" cuz the only thing left from the actual 2.4L is the block, crank, head, and valves. Everything else besides the turbo stuff and the pistons/rods is from a Quad 4 HO, including the oil pump...and let me tell ya, that was a royal P.I.T.A. but well worth it!
I know its a long shot, but I was just curious to see if anyone knows how to tune with HP Tuners or knows of anyone who does?
I know I can get it done in the Cities but I dont want to pay almost $400 to get it tuned when I already have the $700 program to do it...
Any help is appreciated!
and thank you all for kind comments...Im really glad people can appreciate the work done to it even tho its a cavalier

Just be on the look out for the black and yellow cavi aka The UFO. He may try to run, and beat you, just ask Colton.
Old I know, but still worth a chuckle.
I think I may have actually seen that car once or twice at my work...(Gateway Chevy)
from what I have seen, I suggest staying away from Spec clutches... I had a stage 2 and all it was is just a nice disk with a stock pressure plate...
^ AJ?
I have only ever broken one axle...powershifted into second and snapped the axle in half
lol yeah, ill get right on that
anyone know of anyone down here that knows how to tune with HP Tuners?
I am shooting for 350whp, but I have seen other very similar builds get above 400whp
oh and its also getting tuned on E85 with 1100cc Injector Clinic injectors
Thanks!
oh I know what else I forgot...Extrude honed Quad 4 HO Intake Manifold and a bored out HO TB
Hi, my name is Justin and I just moved to Fargo from Duluth, MN. My current daily beater is a 93 Civic dx that is all kinds of beat to shit but still gets me around reliably. But for my fun car...its a 2002 Cavalier Z24 5spd(yes I can hear you all laughing...its alright)
The car:
the pictures are from 2 years ago, but the only thing thats changed is its been lowered 1.5" and I had to remove the tint from the front windows
and no that badge wasnt there for shits-n-giggles...
OLD specs...

Quad 4 HO Balance shaft delete/oil pump upgrade
eagle h-beams
wiseco 9:1 pistons
Quad 4 HO Valve springs
Quad 4 HO Cams & Towers
Custom built dual diaphragm, 4-puck clutch
Garrett T3/T4 .60 turbo
