ncirom2003 will become famous soon enough
they will probably r&d it soon, considering theres lots of internals available now for our cars. they will most likely wait to see how we respond to all the other companies new parts to decide on making our intake mani or not.
otherwise buy a d16y8 mani and modify

the reason is, despite how easily the cavalier engines break (i had one and it was such a crap heap), there are alot of people who think they are cool and boost them or try to build them up n/a. They respond half well to boost too.

but the problem is, from my experience, the whole car breaks just before 100,000 miles, and the engine usually blows its head gasket around 60,000. so anyone who is boosting a cavalier better have a better gasket and some good parts or they will have a big broken engine.
