i take sarcasm VERY seriously. no, he has not yet took to the track. he is getting bigger injectors, re-tune. maybe getting drag radials. he has to find some wheels to fit over his big brake kit. when he first bought the car, he turboed it on stock motor, ran 15 flat at like 104 i think. ill look fo rhis cardomain page, hes got everything listed there. its a pretty extensive list.

oh....no I don't have a supercharged ls1. I have a honda civic hatchback with a ls swap.

Does he have tires that are bigger than stock (overall diameter, causing the speedometer to "look" slower )? I'm just saying the needle on that car wasn't climbing that fast...thats all. No harm meant, my definition of fast may be different than yours.

I don't have any opinion on cavaliers....but I like how this blue one looks. It is clean.

...so the real answer is "it could/should be" :D
I'm not a cavi fan, but if they are done right, I can respect that.

nooo, the real answer is yes, it is fast, he has 18" ro_ja's, so i guess the speed-o could be off. but now that i watch it, the car goes from 15-100 in 11 seconds.

its a garrett t3/t4. hes actually got a new turbo, hes installing it when he gets new injectors so he can get a better tune and some better numbers.

oh yeah, he built his own turbo manifold, did 100% of the body/paint, interior, and motor. the only thing he had help on was his tuning. he just turned 22 a few weeks ago.

Very impressive, I wonder what trim he was using to make that much power at that boost level. The cavi wouldn't be my first choice but then again its not my car. You still have to respect that setup and numbers its putting down at only 13psi.
