you can buy the cobalt ss engine with the super charger complete from gm
by the time you by a 2.4 and supercharger you will be close in price.
if you are swapping a 2.4 into a 2.2 pushrod you will have to change the pcm any ways.

you will also have to consider what trans you have the isuzu 5spd if fairly weak.
the final drive spider can't take the abuse. the supercharger kit is recommended
for vehicles equipped with the 5spd getrag trans.

98 Cavalier Wiring--Dome Light by woodyc10
Sep 24, 2005 (9:20 am)

Hey All,
 
I have been outside working on my son's 98 Cavalier. His dome light doesn't work and I have checked all the switches and such. I have a Hayes Manual but it does not really detail the wiring for the dome light.
 
Looking at the Dome light I checked for +12 and found that neither side was hot. Looking at the lousey wiring diag in the hayes book it appears the light is switched by grounding the neg side of the bulb, by the door switches and/or the dimmer switch. I have ran +12 to the Orange wire of the dome (turning it on and powering the truck light which didn't work either), but could not get the door switches or the dimmer switch to turn it off.
 
So I have started tracing the wires for the Dome light and the hot wire from the fuse box (which has +12) but they disappear into the Great Unknown of the bundle of wires heading under the dash.
 
Some where there is a control module (or something) that the door switch wires and the hot from the fuse and the dome light wires go to but I can't tell where.
 
So any one have a real wiring diag or know something about the dome light wiring to help me out?
 
Thanks

im interested in customizing my 98 cavi but not sure if i should invest yet i been reading the posts for the CAI and i remembered a retail gift certificate that i won at the Hot Import Nights car show good for any AEM cold air intake OR a PlasmaGlow Underbody LED Kit and i think its a good place to start but i cant decide. any suggestions? plus i wanted to know if anyone happened to know about a website that i can visit to check out modified cavis that are worth looking at that go into detail also i heard about VERSUS being able to show u the previews of.... lets say a body kit on your car and different colors and so on but i tried looking to find something like that but i was unsuccesful so i was hoping som1 knew a site similar
 
 thanks!
ill check back soon

you should go with the intake give your car more power. i had a several underbody kits on my 99 cavalier and they all showed off the tubes cause i didn't have a body kit or nothin so my preferance would be too kit the intake and wait for the underbody kit till maybe the one or two last items that you would want to put on your car
