Unless you are going turbo, it might be a little big for a NA 2.2...

Oh, I didn't know they made a different one for the N/A models! So in that case... sure go for it!

They have 2 different exhaust systems 3" for the S/C models and a 2 3/8" for the N/A models!!!

I have a Vibrant 2 3/8" on my 2.2LT. It sounds mean and has some fun pops and grunts when downshifting. Dont go for it if you dont like a agressive exhaust, but i love it. Power gains are mild, unless combined with headers and a downpipe. Idle is slightly rough when the engine is cold, however; she runs fine at proper temp. Be careful with any exhuast, i melted part of my bumper from the heat. Oh, and this exhaust was a top pick for me becuase of the price and for the fact that the size is good for both NA and Turbo applications.
