I just got my 2.4 Throttle body and intake manifold on with a tune shortly after, and it SCREAMS! :nuts:

I have heard that you would have some low end torque loss, but it honestly feels stronger in the low rpm! I don't have to press the gas near as much to get the same effect! But when i get into the higher RPM's It really gets moving!

I also got my rev limiter bumped up to 7100 to take advantage of that top end! And the sound at 7100.. SEX! :bigsmile:

I would get some vids, but i don't have a video camera.. I'll try to borrow one.

brings back memories of my 06 LS with all the bolt-ons and the 2.4 mani...it was nice.

wait how did you get the TB wired on to your car?

 

[camopaint0707]

oh you have an 06 so your tb is still mechanical right?

 

[OBZ]

Yep i am officially fully bolted now! It is nice!

 

[OBZ]

wait how did you get the TB wired on to your car?

The 06 2.2's have an 8 pin harness.

oh you have an 06 so your tb is still mechanical right?

No cobalts have a mechanical TB only cavaliers an maybe others. but not cobalts

All Cobalts are drive-by-wire...no mechanical TBs

then how did he get the 2.4 to work on a 2.2

The 2.4 TB's are drive by wire also.. it was plug and play for me!

 

[camopaint0707]

how many pins did you have? what all did you get done on your tune?

06 2.4 TB fits on the 06 2.2 engine with the 2.4 manifold. The connector is the same 8 pin. I tried a 2.4 TB (which is why I still have one) on my 06, but without a tune it wouldn't work. Back in 06 there was no tuning available.

 

[camopaint0707]

well i have an 07 ls and it is a 6 pin but from what i've heard the 07 2.4 cars have an 8 pin

Sick OBZ! I have my 2.4 TB in the mail at the moment and I hope I don't need a new tune since I was already tuned with the 2.4 intake manifold and other mods. Did you have to get a new gasket for the TB because I can't find one anywhere?

 

[GBALT05]

Congrats on the full bolted achievement! lol

Thats sick man.

You will need a tune. otherwise you will go into limp mode. And yes you do need a new TB gasket. here is the Part # 12600729.

Thanks bro! I still have some tweaking to do on the tune, but even now its running great!

I actually went last night. I only ran a 16 flat, but it was like 85 degrees and the tune is not done yet. there is a test and tune on 9/9. I'll be fully tuned by then so we'll se what i can run.

On a side note i ran a SS/SC last night and won! only because i got a better launch though :bigsmile:
