need some explaining

i already tried to search for this and just had no luck on finding out what i simply want to understand. i have a 2.2 and want to understand what the 2.4 intake manifold does and how it works/ where to find it.

Has anyone who has done the swap had their Cobalt dyno'd after? What hp increase did you see? Any increase in mpg?

It's roughly 10 HP or a little more. You really need a tune to make it fun.

so if you get the manifold and the TB is that too much for the 2.2L? Obviously i'm referring to with a tune, due to the ECU thinking there is a mass air leak when the MAF reads more air than what's on it's map.
