Xiled Turbo build Q&A's

I have recently decided (forced by my SRT4 & SS friend's) to go boosted. I wanted to go all motor... But EVERYONE wants me to boost. friends, family and people on the site. lol. So I have the basic **** like turbo, intercooler, bov, etc. But here are some of questions i still have. please answer them.... with out being a smart ass. thanks.
1. Would the 09' SS/TC stock exhaust manifold fit on my 2.2?
2. As far as intake manifold goes, could I keep my 2.4 mani and TB?, or do I have to go aftermarket?
3. Would 3" down pipe and exhaust work fine?
4. What about 3" charge pipes (hot / cold)
5. What type of a tune or kit would i have to get to tune cause of my auto trans?
6. Rough estimate on injectors.. (ex. 55cc)
thanks

1. Would probably bolt up, but not sure on fitment.
2. Yes, 2.4 manifold and 2.2 tb is fine up until about 15 psi.
3. That's good.
4. 3" is too big on the charge piping, I don't care who tells you otherwise. Get 2.25 or 2.5 at most.
5. Trifecta
6. 42#

Sure you can keep the stock 2.2 intake manifold but it's 2 pieces glued together. Spend the extra couple of hundred bucks and get the kit from Crate Engine Depot.
Or you can piece the kit together yourself and just buy the adapter plate from CED
