1998 Chevrolet Cavalier Questions Please Read

When it comes to body work, I am the man. When it comes to building boxes or installing systems, I am the man. But when it comes to making a car fast......I am the noob. LOL.

I have a 1998 Chevrolet Cavalier. It has a 2.2L Motor. I am willing to buy a new motor if I have to. I want to make a quick little ride out of the car. I would appreciate it if people would post their ideas of an ideal set-up.

Example:
2.4L
Borla Exhaust
Straight Pipe the cat and DC Street Racing Headers
and so on.........

You have no idea how much I would appreciate this. My plan is to buy a new motor and re-build it my father can do all the work. We just dont know what to do because he has never owned a FWD car.

Thanks in advance,
Billy
