What are people making powerwise on the stock 2.2 ecotec? The bottom end isn't built like the 2.0 is it? O0

looking good, hurry up and get to the dyno. O0

I don't think the 2.2 is built like the 2.0. with the 2.2's, most people are making around ~210whp and ~230 wtq

where does the oil feed hose come from?

Re: Chevy Cavalier, home made turbo style. PICS, danger for 56k
 

there is a place on the head that is pre tapped for oil feed. I just took out the plug and put in a fitting.
