okay not to sound like a complete dumb ass newbie but ive had my LT for about 2 months now and still is stock due to a shipping problem on my CAI.. but anyways when removing the plastic engine dressings i find a engine that looks more like the 2.4L. with the injectors in the middle of the intake unlike any pictures of 2.2's ive seen on this site.. and one again sorry if its a dumb question im just curious.

The design was changed between 06 and 07

07's received coil-on-ignition, and a different ECU, along with some other minor changes

elbeno600

lol okay thanks...quick question how much were the dual halo projectors?

Schultzay

if its a 2.4L it would say VVT directly on the engine below ecotec.
older 2.2

07 2.2

and here's a 2.4 just for kicks. use your magnifying glass to see the VVT on it haha

HackAbuse

Mine were 280 shipped. but they're considerably cheaper now than they used to be

elbeno600

yes i am aware it would say vvt. i was just giving that as an example but thanks for the images.. the price you payed was even pretty decent. hows the install?

Schultzay

darn, i was kinda hoping they screwed up and you had the only LT with a 2.4L lol that would be awesome

everything but the LEDs was plug and play

the LEDs required extra wiring, but its easy and its completely up to you. I wired mine to a switch and left them on 24/7 wether the car was on or off.

My friend got them and wired them to the parking lamps, which turned them on when the car was on

elbeno600

haha yeah that would be a nice little **** up to gain from. but saddly not for me haha.. how long did your led's last with them on 24/7 before replacing them.

HackAbuse

LED's last for 10's of thousands of hours.

You can turn on an LED, and not expect to see it burn out for at least 10 to 20 years.

If it burns out, it's either got a defect, or you supplied the wrong voltage

elbeno600

thats what i thought but i remeber seeing some guy on here asking how to replace the led's so yeah kno

shawn672

well LED's typically have a lifespan of 100,000-500,000 hours...so....even at the lowest, 100k. he could run the LED's for around 11 years!!! lol I'm sure his battery would long be dead..not to mention his car would be scraped by then.

edit: mixed up 1mil with 100,000 lol

I've heard we also got the same exhaust manifold as the SS/SC

elbeno600

well if that true that would be nice haha..yeah as well i just got my oil changed for the first time yesterday and switched it over to full synthetic and there is quiet a noticable difference i find. from what i can tell less engine noise as well as a overall smoother feel.

shawn672

Yup, this is confirmed, the 07 2.2's got the same Exhaust manifold as the SS's had. Woot

And yes...Sythentic is goooodd
