In 2002, John took on a new challenge: sport compact racing. He fielded a GM ECOTEC 4-cylinder GMC Sonoma and later a Chevy Cavalier in the NHRA Summit Sport Compact Drag Racing Series. In his first year racing in this series, he won one national event and had two runner-up finishes. The Cavalier was powered by a turbocharged Ecotec 2.2-liter 4-cylinder engine that was capable of quarter-mile speeds in excess of 187 mph.
Lingenfelter made over a 1k bhp with his ecotec
Yes, he just blew my doors off on dick rd.
I check back on my old Fiero forums from time to time to see if they’ve made much progress on this swap. If it ever gets as easy/cheap as some of the other swaps there’s a good chance I’d do it.
Do their cars smile too?
I’m sorry I couldn’t help myself
your damn right lol actually my evo has 50hp get it right
since you guys have evos… you two should check my FS thread 
Ah, I didn’t realize this is #2.
His first one was the car with 1k hp!
Was wondering why there were no track vids of said 8s runs.
However, the fastest street GA barely broke in to the 12s with an ecotec IIRC.
meh.
wish i could buy some of your stuff but i just bought my evo anddd now im broke. maybe in spring if its still for sale!
such a bad investment and since when have you been on here …:spank:
Is that coolant under the car in the first pic?
I hate when people do this shit to grand ams and then proceed to think its the greatest thing. There are a few that roll around localy with cans bodykits ebay halo eyes etc
1000 HP is a lot…
Here is a good read on the gm ecotec program… much of it can be applied to any 4 cyl build. Lots of good technical info on what goes into a big power 4 cyl:
and smilie faces…
ZING! hahahaha
