My 06 honda civic broke down for whatever reason at 295k. My neighbor has one of these, ended up selling it to me for 600. He said he thinks there’s 200k plus miles but theres only 165k lol. Ended up tow strapping my civic back home with it about 60 miles up and down hills. Handled it good. I kinda like the car. Might paint it black idk. Its red but all the clear coat is gone. Its auto but whateva.
Yeah you can dirt track race then as well 😂 sc Lauren’s speed way look up some vids of fwd holy shit talk about the most fun you can have with a stock engine just gotta put a good cage in and cut some of the front of car off tube it back so be easy work on few slight things we allowed do stock suspension. And that’s it go racing
@@SISNEROS28ck out TGB tuning for ecu they can make your car come alive for only tuning the ecu. Trust me they worth every penny we use dirt track race and before they figure out who we had do tuning my buddy was winning by a half track every weekend for a entire season think was 2018 2019 number 94 fwd I was 93 but look up Lauren’s speed way sc Darlington of dirt you be like holy shit 😂
We run these stock engines on Lauren’s speed way sc dirt track stock with a tune ecu they run 6800 rpm around the track no problem and I had a straight drive so it stay high rpm. But this is sick I been wanting build one for the drag strip now. And need a ecu done hit up TGB tuning they know all about ecotec

@@Hockey16471 plans have been put on hold since my transmission blew lol, got all that work done but too close to winter, so next summer I can start hopefully, I would do it over the winter but no garage space left for the cav:(
cool cav was thinking about boosting mine i have a nice clean red 04 LS sport coupe no rust and only 62 thousand miles on it i only drive it a few time a year
I love it! I have an 03 saturn ion that I'm building using the saab 9-3 turbo and the 87 Merkur xr4-ti setup. Non intercooled. I plan to just run off of waste gate pressure. I'm going to use the same fuel pressure regulator you're using as well. What is your fuel pressure set at and what would be a good psi for the stock injectors?
Cool.. I have a 2002 Sunfire GT!.. yes, thats a GT... (giant turd??)... lol. anyways, I was looking into putting on a turbo and front mount, just to see how much fun I can make it for cheap.. I found your channel for some ideas. Thanks. :)
I don't remember I think it was and oil feed for a turbo I cut up u can get what ever size -an fitting welded in thats what I'm gonna do next I re did the set up in my car have to make a new vid soon
@@brett2297 good deal. I do have an adapter but I figured out the stock regulator is already a rising rate so imma tune on that. Got 42lb injectors and a bigger pump. So should be fine. Im running the hahn kit with the super 20g.
@@cavikid5339 yea I ripped the stock on out I think I broke it off and drilled the rest of the stuff out I got lucky and found that fitting in my junk drawer hopefully I'll have my car tuned soon so I can make more vids and give out the gap

To be honest Homie I am proud of your shitbox and I absolutely love it
You give me hope and make me know there’s a small crowd that likes these ole’ shit boxes
I wasnt expecting much then you popped the hood and seen a hood dump and all the shits
13 second quarter mile is damn respectable.
I like your wheels.
Hell yeah, Cavalier shitboxes for life!!!
You can get some cams for these 2.2L's and theyll let ya rev your motor out too 8K rpm, should make for alot of fun
how do you figure out if everything is compatible before making something like this???
Man you really went to town, i love my cav

How did you tune it with hp tuners? I have an 06 Cobalt but they are saying it’s “untunable”. Nice build. Thanks bro.
It's not boring need all the details
Is this the same ecotec that's in the Saturn Vue?
Yes, same family of engine.. depends on the year how similar or exact they are.
Did you have that stock ECU tuned or running with no tune?
what did you do for suspension? im going to do standard stuff to beef it up back to normal. its beat
I put new struts in thats it I was gonna do coil over but go to new build now

Can you make a video on how to get aftermarket parts for this particular ecotec motor
Where did you find those fittings for the fuel rail? I could definitely use those.
Kartek offroad sells them
What ECU/year are you running? I'm trying to figure out how to tune my '02 ecotec 2.2 on a budget
Stock ecu tuned with hp tuners
Finally someone did it right
I try i got some more stuff going in the year
Where did you get the fuel rail fittings to adapt from the stock regulator?
I don't remember I think it was and oil feed for a turbo I cut up u can get what ever size -an fitting welded in thats what I'm gonna do next I re did the set up in my car have to make a new vid soon

@@brett2297 hell ya. Looking forward to it. I was using a aftermarket regulator but obviously having trouble tuning because the stock one.
@@cavikid5339 cut it off lol
what injectors did you use?
#80 deka injectors
What pistols and rods an how hard to put it together?
Eagle rods wisco Pistons and it depends if u have built an engine before not to hard lots of little things
Why do people say it’s a stock block and everything. The there like umm I got internals. Then he names all kinds of shit
