lsj motor installed in cavalier body .... read on

okay my buddy out in cali has taken the lsj over the last month and a half, he bought it from a totalled redline.... and insalled it into his cavalier. he has officially a stand alone working running on it now. the supercharger has been ditched in favor of a t3/t4 hybrid with a custom trim. the motor is 100% stock except for the injectors which we had custom made by pyhton injection (venom) to 600cc. the motor is running very stable and smooth he has been driving it now for about 3 weeks. he is supposed to send me some pics soon when he does ill post some of them here.
so far noproblem with motor being capable no detonation problems or knocking and pinging. he said it did at first but was resolved. now this is a japanese tuner none the less and i have known him for a very long time now so i can say what he tells me is the truth. he did it because he was asked by his nephew to do it to his cavalier he had.

anyway the motor is producing over 400whp on the dyno. he saidhe dynoed it on a few different ones to see how true of a number that was. the motor is 100% fine according to him stable as a rock. he is going to turn up the boost a little more soon and poss add a nitrous spool up kit for the turbo. he did use a throttle body without the driveby wire somehow i assuming he could do to the standalone.

i just though i let you guys in on the facts that the motor is super capable and will have no problems at all with big numbers. im flying out to vegas soon for a show and i told him i would fly there after to see the car before i came back home. ill take some pics then.

4 f'in hundred f'in horse f'in power...f'in. Thats really sweet. Whats the boost on that right now and whats he gonna turn it up to? I honestly didn't think that we would be able to see numbers like that, just because of the fact thats its a measly 2.0 liters. But damn, i guess i was wrong.

Thank god - I'm happy to hear about the standalone. I figured 350 reliably from this motor ... i wonder how his durability is going to be? AKA : When the thing is going to blow piston rings and start dying in general from the stress. This has me stoked though.
did the motor etc. he took include the water/air intercooler, or did he ditch that, or is he now running air/air. so many questions ... Want that much power in my tupperware racer...
