I really don't understand why you are not looking at cars that make sense.

Sure you want to be different, but FACK dude.

At least go for a old Shelby 2.2 turbo, not a damn sunbird turbo :s

I never thought those old jbody engines were very reliable, heads blowing constantly(at least the cavi I had). I'm not sure if a turbo sunfire/cavalier would be much different....

As for the Shelby 2.2 Turbo, I had a dodge daytona 2.2 turbo and I can say that it was fast.....unreliable but fast.... :P

unless you want to deal with cracked heads, blown gaskets and shotty turbos..... don't a friend of mine had to replace his turbo twice anc gasket twice and head once... but he did all the work himself. Plus it would help if he let the turbo cool down and what not after driving it <_<
