get at me on my new aim. my new sn is BonnettsEcoCavy

2000 is gonna really be pushing it, might want to count on something around 2500-3000 for whole setup and the only thing you will have to do it tune it and cut the charge pipes to fit and put the kit on.

i have a few questions, i have been doing some homework and have figured out the size of turbo i need, will everyone have the same general sizes of turbo? i was on the garret turbo and read compressor maps till i found the one that fits my needs and it is a 60 mm, 62 trim, 0.60 A/R its the gt2860rs, i have a 2001 cav, z24 but i dont think its an ecotech motor, does this sound like a common size for a cavalier, and can i buy this size elswhere?

any help apreciated thanks,
mike

if you have an 01 z24 then it isnt an eco its the 2.4 twin cam ld9

AJ B - and as for can i get the same as jtuners? yes i can, but i can get all name brand everything other than just the turbo and get you an intercooler and everything you need for the price of the 3500 for the kit from jtuners

well bonnett I believe I may be hunting you down for the turbo when I get my motor done since I could only find one company with the "HP" kit for my little LD9 lol

They also weren't aimed right in the pic, they were aimed too high. They are closer to being right at the curent time.

The only way they would be closer to right is if you got projectors, otherwise, they are still far from it
