Correct, Limp mode with the 2.4 TB (68MM) on a 2.2 engine. It has to do with the airflow diagnostics in the ECM.

I'd say as close to impossible as you can get with the current ECM.

yeah and unless u do every other intake/exhaust mod including cai, intake mani, header, dp, catback, i dont think the air really gets that retricted at the tb. has something to do with air velocity or some mathematical bullshit lol
