I've used their log style on a few builds and never had an issue. I'm pissed they never told me they were going to release that one

spike

i found it by mistake....but they let me trade in my log+ money for this one....since my log was new and never installed.

not bad

BlackSS/SC

I was going to buy one of their new ones but there was a concern on weather it would fit or not behind the LSJ since they made it for the 2.4l ss which has more room behind it. Do you have it installed yet?

spike

^^not yet, but i cant see anything yet that will be a problem

BlackSS/SC

Looking forward to see if it will fit then! Hope so...

spike

well if i ever get my motor back in my hand we will find out....but i have looked alot at my girls 2.2 and pics of the 2.0 and 2.0 parts and everything looks 2 be kosher...my only concern is the firewall & the intermediate shaft...the fire wall needs alittle more than aprox. 7.5" 2 clear(from the head). so this should be more than fine. The turbo hangs aprox. 9" from the bottom of the flange(t3\t4 57trim) so it hangs down by the inter. shaft, but i dont think its as low as(looked but havent measured). But it also looks like even if it is down by the shaft that it hangs far enough away from the block 2 miss the shaft(meaning sits behind)......so thats the scoop hopefully i will have more soon

06blackg85ss have u thought about running the LS4 tb on your setup. I am planning on doing so but didnt know if there would be any bad side affects. I know its not needed 2 make the power i want but, i already have one and it never hurts 2 go with a little bigger tb....imo

JDMjunkie

so I just read through this entire thread and man is it an inspiration to turbo mine LOL. wish i had the funds/time/and another car to drive. GL with your engine and test fitting the manifold. Looks great and keep up the good work!

spike
