Default Skunk 2 or jg victor x for b20/vtec turbo

the head is going onto a fully built b20 block, but the head will remain stock for now, it's going to be gsr.....and i'm debating on what manifold to run, it will be run on s200 and i'm not lookin to shift it over like 8500......i've heard the victor is only good for really high rpm's, any opinions?

youll make more up top with the jg than you would with the skunk2. i have the skunk2 and im happy with it, im not trying to make huge numbers though and dont shift all that high.

The VictorX manifold is designed for higher horsepower setups, more volume, more torque. i would advise you get the VictorX manifold ahead of the skunk2. If i had to buy a manifold on the market, thats probably what i would buy.

That high rpm use you hear of is more referred to for n/a apps. JG should handle the Skunk2 pretty well on a CRVTEC espeically boosted.

i went with the skunk2. makes big gains in mid-range power. jg rapes up top, 7k+. personally i dont bring my car to 7K+ often and i would rather have more gains in the mid-range, thats why i went with skunk2. but if you just want high numbers, go with jg.

so what i'm understanding is that the skunk manifold will create more torque, while the jg manifold will rape upper end horsepower??? i don't wanna shift my car over like 8500........so i imagine that the skunk manifold would be the better choice?
