Default skunk2 vs victor-x manifolds

what are the pros and cons of each. which is best suited for an ls-vtec turbo setup? im leaning more towards the victor-x. any input on this?

AGAIN? C'mon man.. this has been done.. check those FAQs. I've even seen them in there. this has been ongoing for a bit. You can even google through H-T for Skunk2 or VictorX as keywords.

Sorry I'm blunt, but you gotta check a little more before starting another thread like this again.

Xenocron posted up a dyno of both compared on the same setup.

The comparison between the S2 and the victor-x is relatively known.

But had somebody ever seen a comparison between a Skunk2 and an OEM ITR IM?
From my eyes they loo identical...

You're a tard...a back to back comparison on two different manifolds with nothing else changed is flawed? LOL..this website cracks me up

I wasnt doing a comparison to try and sell one manifold over another like Skunk2 or Edelbrock might want to see...

I was trying to see if the gains of stepping up to a Victor-X were worth it on a relatively stock-ish motor setup...and someone offered me an even swap, manifold for manifold...so it seemed like a no-brainer to do. I dont even remember if the Performer-X manifolds were even out at that time...maybe, but just barely.

woah woah relax, all im saying is, a comparison of two intake manifolds to see which one provides better performance would be better if the manifolds were designed for the same purpose. my opinion is that a short runner manifold vs a long runner manifold isnt a fair assessment.
