You have a 95 2.2 so go with an Ho. The 2.4 is worthless since you can you can use the Ho and get 30hp and 10lbs more than a 2.4. The job is the same anyway.

Hey I've been hearing a lot about that 2.4/2.3 hybrid motor. Does anyone know what kind of numbers this combo makes, and does it just raise compression?

if your gonna go through a swap why waste your time with a 2.4L? 150 hp is a turd. Trust me I drive one and its slow as hell. Not to mention unreliable. I'd swap an ecotec in and turbo it if you want to stay with a 4-cyl.

id swap in a 2200 easier and practically the same engine but does have its advantages. plus there seems to be a bigger aftermarket for 2200
