Post 2.4 intake mani mod on 2.2?

so guys im tying to do as many bolted mods as possible. I wanna do a 2.4 intake mani, throttle body, headers, downpipe, better cold air intake, catback exhaust, and a tune. Is this worth my time and money?

It you think so. I got intake, 2.5 mani header and exhaust, only bought one part new, did I make a difference yes, is it worth new prices no. But, that's just my opinion.

is it worth it? absolutely not. l61 was not meant for performance by any means, with all the bolt ons it will still be relatively slow compared to entry level sports cars. keep it stock, maintain its reliabilty and get good mpgs. then save up for a sports car

Well, it depends what you want to do with the car. With intake, intake mani, header, downpipe, catback, and tune you are looking to be around 160ish. If you are planning to do competitive racing, I was look into a new platform, or supercharge/turbo your car. If it is your daily driver, and you are looking at getting a little more performance out of it, they are worth your time then. Just have reasonable expectations when putting on bolt-ons, they won't transform your car into a sports car, but they will improve your cars performance.

Then just save and plan for the blower. Everything else would just be a waste.

If you are supercharging why waste the time and money towards what I bolded if they have to be changed out anyways?
