Not what I'm talking about. The primaries and collector are much too large for a 2.2L.

These headers do not come with wrap but the instructions say that header wrap is required for the primary next to the firewall.

ehh...not so bad. standard aftermarket primary size for the 2.2/2.4 is 1.5", and the JBP are 1.625"
I ran 1.75" primaries when i was NA...mostly because i planned on boosting in the future, but it still pulled a tiiny bit harder top end. Definitely a noticeable loss in the low end though

yea. its the same size as the stock header, as far as distance between head and DP go anyway, so it will take any aftermarket DP that wasnt designed for a midlength header, which is most of them

nah the wrap does not come with the headers i asked jbp about that i did that myself not that bad but i looked at them today and they are tight
BUT TO ALL THE 2.2'S OUT THERE THEY DO FIT AND JBP SAID THEY WOULDNT

it probably will fit that down pipe i have a cobalt addiction 2.5" downpipe and it fit no problem

JBP is just retarded.....there are literally zero differences between fitment of exhaust components between the L61, LSJ, LAP, and LE5. I could have told them it would fit...
