1996 Pontiac Sunfire GT

About This Vehicle:

The engine and turbosystem on this car were designed and custom built by Mike Karas. I've learned much myself over the course of the project, and I hope someday to be building motors and other crazy stuff myself. I'm happy to impart what I do know in the meantime. Here's a helpful link for those wanting to get rid of that pesky 108 mph speed limiter: SPEED LIMITER REMOVAL FOR CAVALIER/SUNFIRE See_also:::>>http://img28.imageshack.us/img28/9853/cavalierspeedlimitersmall.jpg
