According to Garrett its a 2.2

unless this kit has been out for a while and they are working on the 2.4. That doesnt look like the 2.0L to me

The compressor housing is clocked 60 degrees from where it's supposed to be. It should be pointing toward the valve cover more. By the look of things, that's the Banks workshop, not Garrett's workshop.

Yes, that is here at Banks. As far as the clocking, it is unmodified as received from Garrett.
It is bolted to a 2.4 presently but it will bolt on to the 2.2 & 2.0
I have been cotemplating running this turbo kit on a Sol 2.4 engine/tranny in my Nova.

I'm old school
You can always tell a LE5 engine by the cylinder head. On the L61 and LSJ, the valve covers have the same sealing surface. There are two little notches right where the timing gears bolts are so you can service the cams with just the valve cover off. The LE5 has have one large notch all the way across the cam gear side. Dead give away. That is an LE5.
To be honest, that really isn't a lot of progress. It looks like all they really have is a successful turbo manifold with a stock turbo unit bolted to it for looks. They don't have any charge tubing, intercooler, intake, controllers, not a whole lot.
