Turbocharged 3800 V6 powered Cavalier Z24

Welcome to my little corner of Cardomain, thanks for
stopping by. The site is dedicated to my 1998 Chevrolet
Cavalier Z24. If you check through the site you will
see the orignial swap and the problems I ran into with
it over the years. Last season I decided that it was
time for more and decided to get rid of the supercharger
and replace it with a PT-67 turbo.

*********2008 UPDATE*********

Got to working on the car over the last few months. The goal this year is just like other years, to go faster than last year. I would really like to be able to drive the car to the track, run somewhere in the 10's and drive home. To get this done I have added a set of Tein SuperStreet coil-overs with a 1000lb spring in the rear. Moving up to MT Drag ET 26x10x15 slicks mounted on 15x9 Weld light weight race wheels. A Greddy speed cut controller was wired in to allow the car to run a lower amount of boost of the line with higher boost coming in later on down the track. At this point brakes had to be addresses. I am waiting on a Wilwood kit for the fronts and I hope to make a custom setup using Wilwood parts for the rear sometime soon. An 8-point roll bar was installed complete with swing out bars on both sides of the car. Racespec seats were then installed with Sparco 4 point harnesses with cam lock buckles. I also decided to V-band the crossover pipe and manifolds for a better seal and cleaner look. The car is currently at the body shop getting resprayed for our first local show in a few weeks. I don't have pics of everything right now but when I do I will put them up. Here are the pics I have up to now...

***Update***
Got the car back from the body shop. Originally when I dropped it off it was suppose to be there to have minor dents and scratches repaired. My body guy was not happy with that so without me knowing he repaired everything, blocked out the whole car and repainted it. Car came out awesome and he didn't charge me anymore than he said originally. Here are the latest pics, still lots of little stuff to do before the first show next weekend but it's coming along quite well this year.
