In comparisson to a cosworth stage 3 330ish bhp what sort of power is a cavalier phase 3.5 would it be somthing similar to the cosworth?

 

never heard of them?

 

Sorry mate what i meant was a cav turbo with a phase 3.5 upgrade fitted.

 

Phase 3.5 will be approx 320-330bhp with similar torque

 

love cavalier turbo's great cars, and very rare,

 

Should go well, till it blows the transfer box and turns to FWD

 

Just take the fuse out for the 4x4 system,then it will be 2wd drive.Just get a cossie bought,go on be a man.

 

I have already got a cossie had it for about 4 year now and loved every minuite of it. I only asked as there is a lad who has a cav turbo where i live who says it quick so was wondering how it would compare to my cossie.

 

I think them Cav GSi Turbo things look hard as nails.

 

well the chavalier will break down in the first mile. Glad u love your cossie.

 

PMSL at the tag

i dont think itd be as quick on the road, cossie boost spike and all that and i think a cossie would have more torque

could be close though

 

Loved my cav turbo, real cruise machine, did feel a reasonably rapid car but I was only young at the time, would imagine a phase 3.5 with the power mentioned above would be a nice car. Transfers are weak but not made of glass, long as they are looked after they aint too bad.

 

still never heard of that on a cavalier ?

 

There actually decent cars mate, my pal had a couple back in the day, drove and went very well, just the transfer boxes that let them down. different kettle of fish to a cossie though imho.

Very smart looking car

Was in a maroon one many years ago for a blast and frig me there was about 5 different warning lights on the dash saying something was wrong lol

Used to be 3 or 4 kicked about where i live ....... only cos they couldnt afford a cossie

Its a car you never see these days is a cavalier

 

this was mine


wold definately have given a stage 3 saph a run for its money once rolling.
was miles quicker than my m3 and thats not to slow.

 

i had a cav gsi ex police in cadbury purple real nice untill some youth ran up the arse of it and wrote it off

 

They are very quick, alot faster than you'd expect, i think it'd certainly put up a good fight against a Stage 3 saff.
You could also have a competition to see which one rust faster too!

 

Yeh you have told me a few times about it.Not as good looking as a cossie though lol.

 

This was mine before I had to sell up

 

I had a few GSi's, great all rounder. Couldnt find a decent cav turbo, so i bought my 4x4 saph. Id alredy had a 2wd saph and wanted a change.

 

You'll struggle to get a p3.5 cav past 315hp, infact seen as most of them have seen better days realisticly your going be/should be around the 300hp mark. Seen as it uses a very small turbo if rolling it'll likly pull out a car length only to be reeled back and then passed before you see the national speed limit.

 

mine clocked 110mph on the 1/4 mile which i think is about on par with a stage 3 saph? it did have a few extras though. and it was only 2wd. it got to the end of the speedo very easily as well. never had it on a set of rollers where it would stay on them but as you say you wont get much past 300hp on the standard turbo,its about the same size as a t3.

 

my saff hits 109 on the 1/4, but its 4wd and got a bit more than a stage 3 on greens.

 

I always wanted a Cav GSi........loved them back in the day

 

i love the cavalier turbos...

 

Always fancied one myself, had a couple of cav's and they have been bullet proof for reliability.
