RD fabs 2.0 intake on '07 2.4 S/C

I got one of these for the motor. I'll let you guys know how it fits since an '07 2.0 s/c guy said a brake line rubbed or something. I'll make it fit though, and show you how to make it fit too. Still have another 3 weeks. Anticipation is killing me.

It fits. Just remember, you need to be supercharged 2.0/2.4 otherwise it will be useless.

Can you post some pics? A closeup of the brake lines would be good to show how much of a tight fit it is.

It's on their site www.rdfabs.com . I didn't get an Injen because it wasn't 3" or stainless.

The welds where the MAF go in were messy on the inside of the piping and had to be filed down. Took about 20 min to file down but nothing too serious.

The brake lines touch the intake piping but they don't put any pressure on the piping. The filter was a PITA to jam on the piping too, because it's such a tight fit under there.

Ss far I'm happy with it. I'll try to get some pics sometime.

off topic how much did it cost u to get ur wideband gauge and i have autometer a/f gauge too how much did it cost u...a shop around my way said it will cost like 69/hr and most likely it will take 2-3 horus to installed it so he said it might cost 2-300 dollars>>>???

I installed the wideband. I thought you had the AEM? It's basically plug and play. Connect power, connect ground, free air calibrate, insert sensor into bung, mount gauge and you're good to go.

If you have someone install everything in your car including gauges and stuff, you can be looking at a $2,000 install including a tune lol. You are going to need to at least attempt to do stuff yourself to keep costs down if that is what you are worried about.

Just PM next time. You have this crazy ability to get any thread off-topic.

Intake looks good, too bad it would not fit an Ion with the supercharger.
