It mounts up fine, all NA ECO manifolds are interchangeable flange wise.
Also the '08 2.2 uses the same intake as the '07 2.2, so the gains are similar.
HOWEVER, after only a visual inspectio0n, its my opinion that you DO NOT want to use the '08 2.4 LE5 manifold.
The the 2008, 2009 2.4's and the 2009 2.2's all use the same new intake. This intake is NOT THE SAME AS THE "07 2.4 mani Its got smaller runners, a (I believe) slightly smaller plenum.
While it will work(you still need the brake hose or mod) and the '08 T/B will bolt directly to the new 08/09 VVT Manifold, It is my opinion that the largest gains are still going to come from the 1st design 2.4 manifold

I'd go ahead and get the 2.4 Manifold kit from CED or piece together your own.
