why doesnt an intake for a 2.4 litre fit on a 2.2 litre?:confused:

but what modification?

why doesnt an intake for a 2.4 litre fit on a 2.2 litre?:confused:

What type of intake?

its a k&n aircharger 63 or something like that.

can not help. I have a CGS 2.4, works on both 2.2 and 2.4 filter just a little snug

The two engines are two different animals. The 2.4L has variable valve timing and a different engine block & valve cover, making it hard to design an intake that will fit both properly.

The CGS intake will fit with a slight modification, but K&N's unit only fits the 2.4L engine.

Hope this helps you understand why... :thumb:

Well, I just got back from meeting with eat_world, he has an '07 2.2, hopefully he'll be able to post pictures later, but the valve cover is nearly identical to our 2.4. I'm thinking that the 07' 2.2's may fit the intakes that were previously designed specifically for the 2.4.


We need pic's from '07 2.2 owners to help confirm this.

well right now i don't know where the camera is and its too darn cold to be pulling off the air cleaner, but yeah i think that the CGS should be able to the fit the 07 2.2. Hey SoCalHHR if you wanna send me one and i'll see if it its i'd be more than happy to check for you :lol: .

Did I miss something here ????

I thought everyone agreed the CGS fits BOTH THE 2.2 and 2.4.:confused:

Isn't the question.....if the K & N fits the 2.2 as well as the 2.4?

yes it is snoop

Right, what I'm thinking is that the CGS(without modding), K&N, and others may fit the '07 2.2's.

Ok...my opps...I was confused with the question to SoCal.

So, has the underhood intake and collection box of the 07' 2.2 changed from the 06' 2.2 ????

The only thing I noticed was the valve cover, it looks like a 2.4 but doesn't say VVT under the ECOTEC.

There is just enough of a difference in the bolt pattern the the mounting bracket on the CGS needed to be modified. Courthousedeb did a write-up on her install I think.

We need to see some pics of that when you get a chance.

Ok tomorrow i'll pull the aircleaner off no matter what the temp. My 07 has a coil on plug design like the 06 2.4's

Yes I did Mike and the thread is here.
