I read a lot of post from the community but i'm still not sure about what 2.4 throttle body i should get for my LAP. Should i get a 2.4 throttle body from a 2008 cobalt cause they have 6 pin and i was wondering if they are other models that have the same throttle. I saw this TB on ebay and i was wondering if its gonna fit and if its gonna improve performance on my cobalt

The last thing i wanted to know is if theres an aftermarket TB i can get that is going to be as good as 2.4 TB from a 2008 cobalt

 

Yes that one will work, although you should swap to the 2.4 intake manifold first to get the best gains. No aftermarket throttle bodies but you can use an LSJ throttle body. For this though you would need to rewire for it because it is an 8 pin. Either way you WILL need a tune when you switch throttle bodies

 

First, make sure you get ones with the correct matching pins, or yea like said above, you will have to rewire. That TB in the link is pretty fd up. I picked one up from a member on here for 65$ shipped in better condition then that. So just look around and be patient.
And I think he has a 2.4 IM on there already cuz hes a LAP engine. Not sure though

 

He needs the 6-pin from a 2008. And yes the manifold is a 2.4 just revised. I have both

 

I read a lot about that and im happy that you confirm everything! Getting a Tb shipped from another member is more complicated because i live im Canada...

 

i recieved a tb from a member in canada for $65 shipped. lol. fedex does international shipping to your door. cost about $12 for me when I made the purchase.

 

What's good about the 2008 6-pin bolted over the LAP is that it doesn't require a tune. I'm not tuned (yet) and she's been running like a champ, no CEL, no Limp mode. A tune helps though.

 

LSJ throttle body!

 

What size is that big throttle body they use on the turbo swaps ? I think it comes on the Canyon 2.9 or 4.2

 

ls4?

 

I have one thats 6 pin and larger than the 2.4 Looks to be off a 07 and up. V6 maybe. Bolts right on the lnf intake but you would need to port the **** out of the manifold to match it up. I think its off a 3.5 or 3.6

 

Well... I think its better to get a 2.4 IM from a 2008 cobalt

 

Figured it out . Used on a bunch of engines 3.1 3.5 3.6 4.3 to mention a few

 

So for reference, the LSJ does not bolt up, but the 2.4 does? And how much bigger is the LSJ than the 2.4, worth rewiring?

 

It's like 4 mm bigger I think. I believe the 2.2 is 58.something mm, the 2.4 is around 64, and the LSJ is around 58. That's just going from memory so I don't know exactly what each is

 

Just stick with the 2.4

 

A 6 pin 2.4 from an 07 should just be plug and play on the LAP, right? Or only the 08 tb?

 

2008 only

 

I wanna get the 2.4 tb and a friend has his 2.4 tb but he's an 06 ss/na will it fit on mine?

 

FNG question, what do you mean by pin?

 

The number of pins on the sensor

 

Do i need to re wire it or can i get a 6 to 8 pin connector?

 

you will need a rewire i dont think zzp sells there adaptors anymore

 

You can definitely still get the adapter. No re wiring required

 

Yea saw the adapter on Ebay lol by zzp i think but it's $40
