Yeah you did. Looks like my stock 2.2 mani to me

robert3108

iTrader: (1)

but he sold it as a 2.4 mani...is there any way to check on there if it is a 2.2 or 2.4?

Compare the throttle body opening and runner sizes to those of the mani that you took off the car

it could be the newer style 2.4 mani. its a two piece design like the new 2.4 mani. the older 2.4 mani were one piece

robert3108

iTrader: (1)

well the TB is bigger but its hard the tell the runners because mine is like one big box..lol..but the holes look the same size..

robert3108

iTrader: (1)

but i looked on the thread he posted with it for sale and someone had asked him if it would fit on a 2006 ss/na and he said yes..

robert3108

iTrader: (1)

mine is on the left and new on the right? can i take the middle piece out of mine and put in the new one lol...im bout to make this piece fit...like it ruin my day too =( all excited..then this happen..

royce777

iTrader: (29)

yes it will fit. but it is most likely the newer style 2.4 mani

if this is what u used to base your judgement on that it was a 2.4L intake then that is your fault. unless he clearly stated 2.4 then you could be SOL.

the 2.2L mani would still fit a 2.4. but it would be stupid for someone to put a 2.2 IM on a 2.4..

robert3108

iTrader: (1)

yes, i have a 2.2..in his sale and asked him in my PM if he had a 2.4 still for sale he said yes... another member asked if it would fit his 06 which mine is too..but his was a 2.4 ss/na and he still said yes

royce777

iTrader: (29)

yes its the newer style 2.4. the brake booster hose it is below the tb opening.

AzraelRaezier

iTrader: (8)

okay. well unless his thread said For sale 2.4L intake manifold your SOL. because 1. he could have misread what u typed and saw just intake manifold. and 2. the 2.2 manifold will fit a 2.4.... so with the guy asking him, will it fit a 2006 ss/na YES IT WILL the 2.2L im WILL FIT the SS/NA he wouldnt have been lieing to the guy. just because it fits a ss/na doesnt mean its a ss/na IM

but still.


i would check for a part number, it has to be on there somewhere. then google it. and see what it tells you.

The throttle body bolt pattern is different on the 2.4 than the '06 2.2 manifold. The picture you posted isn't real big so I can't even tell which one is yours lol

if you click on them it makes them bigger

robert3108

I mean the problem I run into is the middle part...there is no seal there..like mine has just have an opening then I tiny hole inside..but can it still be used? And the tb holes match up..I checked

robert3108

iTrader: (1)

if you click on the pic on the left..mine has the red seals and the new one has the green but mine had a black solid part with a tiny hole in the middle..his doesn't but in the back of it has a tiny hole..could this still work?

i can tell by where the brake booster hose is, thats the 08+ 2.4 manifold. i had one on mine. and you dont need a pcv seal on it, its built into the newer ones. hope that helps

the one to the right is the older 2.4 mani i put on my car 2 years ago

robert3108

iTrader: (1)

ok so i went a head and put the new one on and it the rpms were high...something wasn't tight...i don't know..but i went and made sure everything was to specs...same thing...i don't know what to do right now...kind of P.O right now..

i don't have the TB plate and that is where it sound like the leak was coming from..so i retighten and same thing

thx for the help everyone..

maybe its cause your getting more air in your engine, causing your fuel trims to go out, making the computer throw gas at it making the rpms go up?

robert3108

iTrader: (1)

thats what i am smelling too is gas...so i turned it off..now im having trouble putting back on the stock mani..im tired..and will finish it tomorrow morning
