They physically fit direct replacement but wiring will have to be redone before tuning.

Yes, they're all interchangeable, but to repeat what everyone has been saying, you gotta redo the wiring harness for it to work. Personally, I would go with the 42# injectors from the stage 2 kit.

You could also pick up some for cheap by posting a want to buy thread in the classifieds section. But, with 34lbers, you're going to end up needing more fuel than those can supply.

The stock ss injectors duty cycle is more then enough for him to around 8-10 psi on his stock internals. Unless he's beefed up his internals and is running alot of boost. He doesn't need more. All you have to do is splice the clips from the ss harness on your 2.2 harness and your set.

you need the cavi harness for them to work, then a tune. Maybe the cavi fuel rail too? The SS injectors are shorter than the stock 2.2's.

He doesn't have to have a cavalier harness.

Look at my sig. My stock rail and harness are being utilized with the stock green tops. I just swapped the clips. Trust me, it works.

There's alot of threads out here about stock SS injectors on a ecotec 2.2
From what I read the fuel injector wiring harness from a 2004 Cavalier with a 2.2 Ecotec will fit if you want to go turbo using stock SS injectors.
Someone correct me if I am wrong

Whatever he can get cheapest is probably what he should do. Atleast he has options.
