Well in my earlier thread i got a LSJ exhaust manifold...got home today and started yanking the old one off...turns out...my car already has an LSJ manifold on it...lol all that work for nothing...just thought id share

 

damn...that sucks....someone shoulda told you.

 

lol.. did you buy it used?

 

nope...didnt buy it at all

 

did you buy the car used??

 

ummm in '07 all the Cobalt started using the same exhaust parts, I thought everyone knew that...

 

lol I thought it was common knowledge as well..god knows its been said enough on here.

 

Guess someone should have told him about that the other day whey he got all hyped up and excited about getting it.

 

well sorry i dont search every single thread...jeez cut me some slack...and no bought the car new

 

hmm i thought the 07 2.2 uses a header that looks like the LSJ but the exit is different. check out the collector and compare it to the LSJ one. I'm pretty sure the 2.2 one has a D shape while the LSJ one has an O shaped collector

 

Sorry i was just bein an ass. i remember reading your other thread, but i never thought to tell you.

 

yes i did that...there EXACTLY the same...

 

that your exrta one and dermel the hell out of it and and it would almost be like the honed GMPP manifold..

 

not worth it..lol...ill just wait for the build and boost..

 

Yeah, I heard some super generous guy with a WTF-BUILT LSJ, GAVE you his stock manifold

 

You sure it is exactly the same? Are the casting numbers the same? Can you post pictures of your 07 L61 mani and the LSJ/LE5 in side-to-side comparisons? The 2.2 is supposed to have a redesigned exhaust manifold but it is not supposed to be the LSJ/LE5 manifold. Should have more bends in it when you look at the side shot.

Get this cleared up!

 

LOL I didn't even catch on that you had an 07...but yes this has been known for quite some time.

the manifolds are the same but I'm pretty positive that the downpipe and exhaust are different.

 

Shoulda asked.

 

ya the down pipe is diff...the only difference between my 2 manifolds is the lsj mani has o2 bung and l61 mani dosent..but size wise...exact...sorry no pics. cars back together...haha hey cam i have another thread o wait...i deleted it...thanks man.....you want it back or?????

 

lolz, sorry but lolz. You should post the year of your car in ur sig, so people know.

 

or they can ask me...lol

 

If it was in ur sig, u would have wasted all that time, because i would have told u. YOU ARE BRILLIANT!

 

I think everyone missed this....the 07 2.2 has a redesigned exhaust manifold. It is NOT the LSJ/LE5 manifold! My point is that we need to stop saying the 07 up 2.2 has the LSJ/LE5 exhaust manifold. The 07 up 2.2 manifold is not a direct replacement for the 2.0/2.4 manifold as it does not have the O2 bung.

 

um if you re read the quote...i said that...lol

 

Wasn't specifically addressed at you....too many posts lately state the LSJ manifold is on the 07 up 2.2. That is incorrect. If it keeps getting stated then people will consider it a fact.
