Ok fitment issues? What kit are you talking about because if its a kit, then there wont be ANY fitment issues. I can tell you that my setup ran great and i beat the crap outta it. Just make sure you have all the proper gauges installed and if not, make sure no changes are done to it until you have those gauges. I have the stock clutch out. i will have pictures of what it looks like so you can see how it held up to 225wtq for 3000+ hard miles.

im with him ^^^ on this one. i just wanna know what additional parts i would need to throw on with the garret kit since i have an auto. from what i have been able to pick up so far, i would need:

B&M Shiftplus (already have)
tranny cooler
Prolly new motor mounts

what else do us 2.2 auto guys need?

If your not looking for more then like 200-220whp you shouldnt need motor mounts. I had no problem with mine. I didnt have wheelhop or excessive motor torque. But all in all that should do it for you auto guys. I cant say exactly how your tranny is going to take it but the shift plus should help part throttle pulls be a lot easier on it.
