I saw that the CL's comptech icebox model varies between auto and the 6spd. Does anyone know what the difference is?

Reason I'm asking is because I plan on doing a 6psd swap into my TL, but I was going to buy an Icebox prior to doing the conversion (since it'll be a good ways out).

 

i thought you werent going to do anything else to the TL?

 

I wasn't...then I decided to sell my 240. lol

09 intake manifold, 6spd conversion, header install = immediate future

 

why you selling the 240? you getting anything else?

 

the tube to the throttle body is longer on 6mt to make up for the distance lost to the VSA ... i eliminated my VSA thats why u see my sig saying 6mt ice box

 

This ^


Neejay, I suggest calling CT Engineering (ask for Nate), and ask him to give you a 6mt tube as well as the auto tube when you order the Icebox.

 

I want to pay down debt, wedding/honeymoon in June, and gotta get a ring before then too. I won't be getting anything else...which is why Im doing the 6spd conversion to have as much fun as I can with this car until I can get something else. lol
ohhhh! ok. Damn...I didn't even think about the fact that I'd lose VSA, but in turn gain LSD...hmm...
Good idea...damn I'm glad I posted up before buying one. lol sucks though, because this eliminates me being able to buy one used. Oh well.

 

could easily add an extension

 

funny, I was JUST thinking that same thing. It's just a 3" id. pipe that I'd add somewhere in there.

Thanks a lot guys!

 

oh ok the means def justifies the end. well early congrats on the wedding. ill be in town in march. got to check out the TL havent seen you since like high school lol. i was hoping to see that 240 lol. whats it cost to do a 6spd swap anyway?

 

When you do the 6MT swap do you plan on ditching VSA? You dont have to btw.

If you do get rid of it, you can delete the VSA now and get the 6MT Icebox. If you want to keep it after the swap, get the auto Icebox.

 

Thanks man. The TL isn't anything to look at just yet lol. My 240 is also more of a sleeper, but its fun . The swap is looking like its going to be around $2,000-ish.
I didn't know you could keep it...should I? I don't really see a reason not to keep it.

 

i wouldve traded my tl for your 240..
