i was'nt at WOT of course! i shift really slowly because I was turning in a hihgway entrance! Because telling me my turbo is way to big, you're wrong! I ran a small turbo before and it was crap!! running 12psi cause less power than this one at 8psi! for people asking if i'm going to boost more : of course yes! Next summer I will run 15psi with this turbo! for people that don't like my car, I have no problem with that, just dont leave any negative comment about my cavalier! any other constructive comments is apreciate

However, if he was WOT, I agree a small turbo (t3) would be more effective. Great work with the car!

After watching the clip a few times, I noticed he started in 2nd and wasn't WOT. It seemed he/she just wanted to show the potential. A T3/T4 for a 2.0L is just right. I don't justify putting it on a 1.8L however. To me, top end is great and all, however drivability is most important. We can't always go WOT all the time.

My props to the Cav.. very strong pull but probably better with a small turbo because at this point you are severly limited by your available rpms under boost. Unless you plan on building up the motor and increasing the power later I would match the turbo with the power that engine can handle with only a little bit of extra turbine efficiency for altitude compensation. (I drive in the mountains alot) To the guy who compared the cavy to a neon.. It's not a neon dufus and I would take this cavy over a neon ANY day of the week. At least in a Cav you are invisible and blend in.. In a neon.. well.. your in a NEON!. lol

So what, it's something different. And it would smoke most cars, leaving them in the dust saying "WTF I just lost to a Cavalier!". Ha

that thing would do good from a roll, but that was in a higher gear no? cuz look how close the speedo and tach are that doesnt happen in 1,2 ,or 3 does it?

I agree the turbo is a little on the large side, but neg repping it is a little harsh, no? With the way it picked up once it was spooled, I wouldnt be suprised if he could get into the low 13's or high 12s

if u cant tell thats a stick than i dont know what to tell you, lol. not bad i guess, i dont like cavaliers tho

that was quick but it looks like an automatic or maybe hes just granny shifting

Yeah it seems pretty big for that thing... Great top end for hiway, but awefull low end! what size of turbo is it?
