soooooooooooo

will that flange fit a lsj 2.0l head?

b/c if so i need a price so i can give you the money for it, if it doesn;t fit you think you could make the exact thing if i give you the flange

let me know this is my winter project and all i need is a header and turbo left

the flange is the same we cant guarantee fitment on your chassis though. if the engine/firewall sit differently at all then it might not work.

my ion actually has more room then the cobalt does behind the motor to the firewall, the only thing that needs to change is the coolant pipe would need to be rotated on my motor to make it point down like the ones on the lnf do stock, simple

so how much for the manifold?

the k04’s aren’t crappy by any means… they are about the size of a gt28r.

the latest variation of the K04 isnt bad… the KD04… its a step in the right direction for the small k0x turbo. 260-270whp from a K04 is nice. and like you said, its in the GT2560 size range
