SKUNK2 Intake manifold worth it?
I was just wondering if a skunk2 intake manifold would be worth the cost? And if it has a noticeable increase in power. My setup now is a jdm jazma header, aem short ram intake and 2.25 exhaust from the header back, all on a B16A second gen sir2.

Re: SKUNK2 Intake manifold worth it? (Capn'jazz)
I read in Honda Tuning that they put a Skunk2 ITR Style Manifold on a USDM GSR with that butterfly style mani. It was a gain of 5whp alone. You probably wont see many gains with it on a b16 until you do some sort of headwork in the form of aftermarket cams and valvetrain.

You might gain a little power up top but will probably lose some in the low/midrange. Just keep the B16 manifold

Why? Its the same thing... If anything I'd rather have the Skunk2 for the "carb legal" **** (since he's in CA)

Re: (1lowsol2)
Thanks for the advice. I steered away from the manifold and I'm buying a hondata unit instead since i'm going boost anyway. So i can use that now and when I go boost, thanks again for the help.
