Let the mods begin!

But first I have to change out the timing chain and its parts to make sure I have a good setup there. It's probably the original chain and it's at 130K miles.

Yeah.I know exactly what you mean.
Thankfully, I've done all the mods I'm going to do to mine.

Remember to order the correct chain for the 2.0, as the crankshaft sprocket is different for it.
Cloyes 9-4201 SX this doesn’t include the crankshaft sprocket or the camshaft sprockets which are also different in the VVT 2.0 and 2.4 and 2009 and up 2.2

Here's a picture of the ZZP intercooler installed:



Like most reviews said, the brackets don't fit right and have to adjusted a little. I had to drill a few new holes in the brackets, but nothing major.
