I am looking at buying a saab intake manifold. Its off of a 2005 saab 2.0T 9-3, Will it work?

 

nope...................

 

negative

 

So it wont fit the lsj?

I thought the LK9 manifolds were off of the 2003+ saab 9-3 2.0 turbo motors?

 

look at the pic dude notice the cobalt, i was being sarcastic......of course it fits.

 

oh LOL i had a heart attack. F that fool that posted after you lol. All acting like he knew his ****. he just took you serious....

good, i just bought one for 90 shipped

thanks jimbo

 

no problem man, your gonna need an adapter plate machined for the throttle body or you can use a 2.4L throttle body with a rewired pigtail. gotta make a small bracket for the map sensor too, you'll see when you get it.

 

cool. I'll make it happen. Thanks for the tips!

 

has anyone confirmed if this will work on the 2.4L. for some reason i thought it would the only thing that would have to be differen't would be the pcv orifice but if i get the lsj manifold gasket that shouldn't be a problem. i'm looking for one close by and if i can find it i will get it.

 

LMAO I dont think he noticed that it was on the lsj.

 

Lol I was gonna say RoFl I know that **** would fit just because its the same exact motor as the lsj. But good work,

 

I have one on my car worked out great. We flowed the stock LSJ intake and then flowed the saab intake, LSJ=148cfm, and saab intake=201cfm, not bad for $90. I like the fact that it's a factory pc, it's cheap, and reliable. I know a sheet metal would have some gains depending on the head but then you have welds, warped flanges and high cost to deal with. Just my .02.

 

I've been running one for a while now. The only problem is that it seems to heatsoak a lot. It gets near 160* in the staging lanes. I need a spacer or a bigger intercooler or something.

 

Jordan,

There is a nice write up on RLFs about how to make that manifold work on the LSJ.
