Just installed my 2.4 throttle body, have AFR gauge, without a tune it runs normal to the stock TB, and does have noticeable gains. well worth the money for me. now just need to save up for a bloody exhaust.

i recommend the LSJ...

BUT the 2.4 TB would be easier if you found the correct # of pins

I am a firm believer in the only REAL difference in LE5 and LAP power ratings is everything gm did to de-tune the 2.2. If cams and TB were the same im sure they would be almost the same in power output. I mean who needs a TB thats almost 3/8 bigger for .2 of a liter more displacement?

Going from 2.2 to 2.4 is only a couple mm. But the lsj is a huge upgrade

Would the 6 pin 2.4 tb from an 07 essentially bolt on without rewire? Obviously I'd need a tune

I just noticed this for quite sometime. After I let off the gas or stop b4 shift to P, the rpm would stick at about 2k for a sec before lower to idle. I think the 2.4 tb has something to do with it. I also have a 2.5 catted dp and 2.5 custom exhaust. Any thoughts?

I haven't read through the whole thread so I'm not sure if it was already said but:

OP- Raise your limiter, if you have full bolt-ons I'm positive you will continue to make power up top. Ask me how I know.
