Default JG Edelbrock Victor X, Blox, or Golden Eagle intake manifold for Turbo Application?

Just wondering which intake manifold will do the trick for my future turbo application, or will any of them work fine? I have a B16 race head with Dart Honda block. I'll prob max my boost around 40psi. Also, should i go with a 75mm throttle body over an other size? Thanks.

Full-Race is coming out with their own IM, gonna run around 899 the last I heard. Might actually be out allready. Looks promising for someone going all out and wants the very best. Also, there is the carbon fiber one that sold for around 1100, I don't think you can get them brand new anymore though.

You should try the RH intake. It flows 30cfm more (without any porting) than the VictorX tested by Port Flow. We're willing to test it back to back with anyone that has a Victor X/Custom Intake/ Blox. Money back guarantee! TURBO CAR ONLY!
