No adapter plate, No CELS and so far after 30 miles its looking like a 1-2 mpg gain and the pull is much better, took it to 100 and was very smooth compared to before.

Not a bad mod at all considering I got out with Only spending $120 for eveything ad took two hours since I was scared of breaking **** to remove the stock mani.



Thanks Big Rob

 

did you replace gaskets? and how much hose did you have to add? Im assuming being a 08 its different than 07 right?

 

Used the gaskets that came with the mani from a member just cleaned them up and I just extended the stock booster hose like 7 or 8 inches max. I still have some mock ups to do but it started raing like hell while I was putting the TB back on then bye the time it stopped it was dark.

 

welcome to the club! lol

 

I keep saying to my wife after this mod Im done...........then.............After this mod im done...............**** is so addicting im looking into my next mod plans

 

yea, thats how i was. Then i stopped about a year ago and started looking at SS's. Needless to say i should have one within the next month....then its time to mod all over again

 

Look at the back of your throttle body. Does it look like this? Then you need an adapter plate.



Does it look like this? Then you can just bolt the **** on and go.

 

Imagine getting a tune.

 

planning on it lol


and Im pretty sure Im good to go without the plate I have the second pic TB

 

Cool man. Just giving breds2k some advice. I woulda posted them in your thread yesterday but only had my phone and can't copy/paste links. Hope you enjoy it. I'll be right there with you Tuesday except I have an intake system, header, and catted downpipe too.

OH! Any trouble getting the map sensor in?

 

it was a little awkward at first but everything was smooth except for the damn rain messing with me. I have an intake system also and the exhaust is non stock but not catback lol.
The sound became much more aggressive and sporty,

 

Which manifold did you use, the 06 one piece or the 08+ two piece?

 

Just finished mine. (One piece manifold.) Only took 45 minutes, but I didn't give a damn what I broke taking the old one out. Only problem is somehow the EVAP port broke off the 2.4L manifold so I have to wait #%#$%#$%# 12-24 hours for it to dry before I can drive it. EFFFFFF!!!!!!!!!

 

^that sucks. OP, looks good! great $100 mod.

 

i USED THE 08+ TWO PIECE fit like a dream
