im kinda on the same note....the bigger the engine...the more air and therefor fuel it takes to fill and fire a cylinder...common knowledge...bigger engine = more fuel...

/sarcasm
but someone was inquiring above about bigger injectors and if it was possible to shove the correct amount of air using a bigger throttle body and manifold in order to match the larger amount of fuel being injected into the the smaller 2.2 engine with larger injectors...injectors larger than the 2.4 which steddy...i think...was trying to say that the 2.4 cant do it and it has top of the line cam and nonsense then the smaller 2.2 wont be able to do it cause it would take that much more force in a smaller space
and if that makes any sense ill be amazed

however it was stated earlier that with full bolt ons the 2.4 or 2.2 doesnt max the injectors out, howver are a TB and 2.4 swap included with those bolt ons, and do the 2.4/2.2 use the same injectors?

i really meant 2.2 specifically for the swap...not that car illiterate...i think.., but it would seem to me by increasing the TB size by porting or replacing and doin the 2.4 swap, with tuning you could make the 32#'s work with it....has this been done already or is it not possible?

Fine, must we nit pick.
Ahem.
Unless you are using a type of forced induction there is nothing to be gained by a larger throttle body.
This isn't the days of old when it comes to TBs. Porting you will gain a little, not enough to be like ZOMG LOOK GAIS!
That and a larger throttle body on a fly by wire system is a royal pain in the ass to rewire.
In final:
L61s and LE5s do not need larger injectors.

i might be mistaken...correct me if im wrong...but i think a throttle body is just like drinking plain water through a fat straw were it just flows relativly smooth...while any type of F/I is like sucking a milkshake through a tiny straw...were that extra force is needed to compress the gas in the little cylinder
so a smaller 2.2 cylinder would not have enough power form a larger tb to force air into the cylinders
