With the TB where it is, it seems like there will not be any problems with aftermarket intakes rubbing the hood ( I hope).

 

I hope so. I think this car will be everything it's cut out to be.

 

gotta love all the new motorswap options

 

Does anyone know when the 2.4 will be available?

 

supposably spring 05, no ones for sure yet. They could end up realizing they have more problems then they thought and push the delay back even further

 

I've never seen a FWD engine with the TB like that. I think it's awesome.
Opens up a lot of possibilities.

 

gm introduced that style intake manifold with the 2.4 ld9 twincam model, then LN2 2.2 eco, now 2.4 eco, now a few manufactures are making it like that, its lighter and it flows the same as a log style, i beileve celica gts use it, rsx type s use it i believe and another popular import. ah older single cam civics used one, but it was a cast iron or some metal substance.

 

The Intake Manifold is made out of Thermoplastic

 

looks perfect for a ram air setup if you were to stay N/A

Looks like it, I was about to say the picture did not work, then looked at the date

 

holy ****, why lol

 

Why this one

 

Cause that was talk about it being introduced to the cobalt, now we talk about it being taken away from the cobalt

anyone else think the new vibe GT looks good???

 

Not good, but better than the old Vibe at least.
