s10 feels like a honda.
As most of you know im waiting on my transmission for the V8 conversion on my truck. Recently I started really listening to my truck when i was driving and giving it alot of gas. It sounds riced out. EWW. I noticed it yesterday when an integra pulled up at the light reving his fart can. When we took off all i heard is his loud as can and my tornado filter. I guess its not ear piercing rice but dont sound like a chevy any more. Another thing to the 2.2l has NO power, especially with the 20's. I was able to pull alittle ahead of him, not much. That was also hittin the limiter in every gear. I hate that shit. I cant wait until i can haul ass and still keep it under 9 grand.

On mods ya we can put a cold air headers or turbo but the motor tops out at about 215hp. Thats on 12psi. Ya its nice having all that but, its sooo slow. The plus side. On 20's im still getting over 30mpg.
Oh towing power, the only thing you can do is convert the rear end to posi. The 2.2l s10 has the 411 gears in it already. Which is cool but no good without a posi rearend.

honestly theres not any good ones, its mostly ebay, and alot of fabrication for the 2.2l. Body kits extreme deminsions have the best. Headers just hit a GM shop. All turbo stuff must be fabricated unless you get lucky and find something online.
