[Wanna build a turbo 2.2]

So i was given a brand new crate motor and i got the wild and zany idea to build a turbo engine! with that has came alot of questions and trying to hunt for parts is giving me a migraine ! So , I figured i would ask and see if this has been done and what are some of the parts used so i have an idea!

I don't know why you'd want to tear down a brand new crate engine... but you'll want ARP head studs and Cometic head gasket at the very least. You can go as far as you want though, chevycavalierworld can still get parts afaik. They should have different stage turbo kits as well through DTS2. Summit has a lightweight flywheel and performance clutches.

O/T - where'd you get a new crate motor? I'd be interested in one myself.

Man i am in the midst of setting up my 96 2.2l for a low boost application, but so freakin torn over fuel management and timing. Would like to see where this post goes.

chevycavalierworld has an adjustable cam gear, fuel management would most likely be something like megasquirt if you want it to be efficient/get the most out of it.

This adj cam gear is not something i have heard of i will def check this out. Has anyone used it on a s10 successfully?

There's not a whole lot of 2.2L builds on here, especially performance ones. Other than bolt-ons and weight reduction, I haven't touched my internals. J-body.org has a lot of information but you gotta search for it. Most anything for the Cavalier can be done on an S10 as well.
