2.4 eco is right out. the trans wont fit. boost what you have, or go with the 3800 gen II s/c.

if you find springs to drop it 3" in the front.........make sure you get a skid plate for it since your oil pan will be almost dragging on the ground.

How did you get sponsored? you have less mods on your cav than my cav. why did you change the fenders on your cav if you cav really is a Toyota? Cause i dont see side markers in you fenders. What are your sponsors? I'd like to see if my car can get sponsored.

If you're going for "go" then with that money you could convert it to rwd and supercharge a 3.6l or better yet, put a northstar in it (as so many do with the fiero) - either one is a ludicrous amount of work, but well worth it. If you're going for "show", then there's not really anything I can suggest, just start spending on what you think would look good.

not to be a jerk or anything but..if ur "toyota cavalier" has a 2.2(instead of the 2.4) and u want to drop it 3 inches with springs either a. something is seriously wrong here or 2. you do not actually own a toyota cavalier. either way you asked for help so here ya go 2.4 swap beef the internals and turbo.

converting to a rwd is not worth the time and money

northstar swap wont work in our cars. the engine fits but the tranny will not

Hey, with 5k theres a lot possible
The easiest and probably most effective (other than just doing up the 2.2) would be to grab a HO quad and swap.

I'd say save it for a new car. Because your guaranteed to screw this car up.
