That reminds me of the kid I knew with NO automotive knowledge buying an N/A Supra and wanting to turbo the N/A motor.

Him: So I'm going to turbo it.
Me: Why? Why not just swap to a turbo'd motor?
Him: Because I'm going to turbo it.
Me: How?
Him: I'm just going to put the turbo on it.
Me: Where?
Him: I don't know.

Saw him a few months later riding his bike to and from class.

It's weird how someone is smart enough to get the car running again with such a POS turbo kit, but dumb enough not to realize the low pvc melting point. Maybe inside the pvc is swain coated aluminum tubing and all the crap all over the engine bay is hiding a full Motec ecu. That'd be some next level sleeper right there.

Oil return down the dipstick is pretty ghetto engineering epic though.

This is still the nicest Cavalier I have ever seen.
