no dyno...so i dont know.

it FEELS a lot better, so i would recommend it.

Injen intake is already 3 in. so you would just need to get a 90* coupler.

Little off topic, my 2008 2.4 (6-pin) TB just came in this morning and installed on my LAP 2.2L. Wee better throttle response but definetly feel it in the mid range driving around the block. Can imagine the topend but i'll know later when going to work. But yeah as cleanxfe stated my LAP hasn't gone in limp mode or blown up that instant, thanks to the revised 2.4 manifold and wiring. I'll keep my 2.2 tb for storage in case and I will get her tuned eventually.

2.2 and 2.4 probably have the same scaler rating. LSJ does not. Probably why its ok to do it.

He hasn't been having any issues yet. He swapped his Injen's crappy inlet to the throttle body to a 90degree which is far less restrictive. It was tuned by Ryze and he drives the car daily without issue. He has also maintained 30mpg city/hwy and he isn't very friendly to his gas pedal.

Talking about me here. I have the occasional P0121 pop up (not sure if its TB issue or because i have the connections wire nutted for now) doesnt affect the car at all.

Ill try and get some enthusiasm to make a how to
