SOL-Hatchback

ok guys.. i have an stock gsr motor in my civic hatchback right now.. was thinking about changing out the intake manifold.. either skunk2 or blox... which one is suppose to be better? and also will it make an difference?.. will i have to change out anything else if i change the intake manifold? like fuel rail or anything like that?..

u would have to change our ur ecu since ur ecu is design to run the stock gsr manifold with the secondaries and the new IM you want wont have secondaries..either go with a p73 or a chip p28...i here that by switching out the IM on the gsr, u can really tell a diff. in power

Get the blox intake manifold because it is cheaper then skunk2 at least on ebay
Then and this perhaps in my opinion and the opinion of anyone who is serious about performance
you need to get your self a OBD1 ECU p28, p30 what ever it is usdm or jdm who the hell cares
and then have it tuned or you will never get the true benefits of anything you add to your car
Hope this helps
also while your at it you could also think about by passing the coolant lines to keep the manifold colder both on the intake and throttle body
oh and do not forget your hondata heat shield gasket or if you want to go really serious could always use outlaw engineering gaskets
hope this helps

blox is made by the people that worked at skunk 2 so there shouldnt be a difference just hte blox might be cheaper but u will get more props from the skunk 2 IM
