Wow, that is awesome my GF should put it on her car, however it is true its probably only worth about that much, lol. When it is a grand I would buy another one.

..... That’s what I got mine for from my connections (me working for parts at a dealership)
the charger is from scogg& dickeys, they where selling it for 41% below GM cost, so GM parts direct, selling things for 10% over = 1404.00.
This is what I paid for mine; Because GM employees pay 10% over cost.
It’s a brand new unit, even comes with color instructions.

do these chargers work only on 2000-2002 cavaliers? Or will it work on any 2.4?? Thanks.
If I remember correctly, doesn' gm parts direct charge an insane amount on shipping and handling fees?

2.3 Ho
eh thats about all its worth, i got mine for 1800 but thats money done spent, not that big of a loss.
will they work on a 96 2.4?
First of all, people stop asking if they work on pre-2000, there's a sticky about it in THIS FRIGGIN FORUM.
Second, BOOSTED, your signature is hilarious.
Third, if GM really destroyed these units I would be pissed off. Rant time.
How wasteful would that be? Bad enough half of their cars get ass fuel milage, hog the road, and don't accelerate for crap. They already recalled and destroyed all of their semi-successful electric cars that were designed half as well as any gearhead's backyard electric conversion. Okay okay, sorry.
So, not for the 2.2L Ecotec?
SOLD!!!!!!!!!!!!
i just got the last one from PACE Performance parts
