Just follow the directions that come with the 2.4 kit from CED and you can't go wrong. Its not bad at all.

I have a manifold with the TB adapter kit for sale for $200 shipped. All its missing is the brake booster hose. It was only used for 2 days.

only the 07 2.2's need to drill. and that is just making the map sensor fit, just opening the space given (in directions)

I don't know if any of the people that have been tuned have the 2.4 manifold. I know that they've tuned for higher octane though.

Hey dude, i just installed mine myself. you do need to drill one hole a little bigger, or atleast i did. but it took a while to install, but thats only because i wasnt at my house, so i didnt have all the tools i needed, if u do it with all the proper tools at hand, it will be quick and easy, just take ur time and pay attention to the instructions, if u need any help with anything, just message me id be glad to help. I also like to believe that the manifold got me to a 15.5 1\4 mile time, so it definitely works.
