Brian Gabardo's Chevette isn't your average economy car. This 6-second Chevette is rocking a turbocharged Volkswagen engine.

Wow! I always think of Chevette as that little POJ box from the 1970's. This car is a coupe. Fast little sucker, running 6's with 122CI. My first new car was a 1971 Pinto, same size engine, but about 6 seconds slower in the 1/4 mile. Heh It's always amazing to me how much power you can get from such a little engine.

My Cruze (with turbo) is 1.4L (86 cu in) and I've had it over 100 mph on the Brainerd road course with no problem. I average 40mpg on my daily work commute. Pretty amazing if you think about it.
