I currently have a ITR Intake manifold. AEBS claims 20whp gains with their intake manifold, but what are they comparing that to? Should I replace my ITR with an Aebs?

dont belive that **** man, i see posts like that on ebay all the time, saying gains over 20hp, people these days just wanna sell, but you will pick up a extra 3 to 4hp over your itr one. i am getting one soon for my head, picking one up over my skunk2 IM

good luck

 

they claim that but DO NOT EXPECT that.. you will be let down. i put one on my car and really i don't feel much of a difference from the b16a intake compaired to this one, plus the fitment varies with them also oh yeah and the cast is pretty ugly too...but for the price what can you expect...

 

I have heard anywhere from a 2-5 gain over an ITR.

I have an ITR and I love it! I just like sticking with OEM parts

 

Yea-- Professional Products manufactured that intake "in conjuction with AEBS" - i have on sitting in front of me and it's a P.O.S. - you won't gain a single HP with it - it's the bad version of the type-R. The one here is polished and it's pathetic - i have an edelbrock polished here also- blows it out of the water (finish wise). You really shouldn't get rid of the type-r unless you're running big cams w/ported head or FI. - Stick w/typer manifold and spend the money elsewhere

 

And the AEBS one outperforms the Type R manifold. Proven time and time again by numerous posts. But he does make a good point. Not worth the effort for a small gain. Save up for some cams.


OR

Send me your Type R mani and buy the AEBS mani

 

AEBS all the way. Polish the inside to get the 20hp gain.

Just polish? Or do you mean porting too?

What kind of setup did you get the 20hp extra with?

Unless you're shitting me.

 

Kind of exaggerating but there is definitely at least 5 more in it if you polish the insides.

 

to late now i knew i should have hooked it up

 

Good stuff rocket!

 

so y not buy the aebs and sell the type r and use the profit on someting else

 

Yea, 145 bux from kteller and a few hours worth of elbow grease and you saved yourself 100+ bux, thats all i did...
AEBS.
P.S. why do you have collective racing in your sig?

True, you can never expect it to be the same for everyone, as every motor, tuner, dyno is different.
You also wouldn't have felt a difference in the butt dyno between the B16 and ITR manifold.

Incorrect. Do a quick search, and there's more than one dyno making gains. It's not going to win Import Showoff product of the year, but with a little bit of work, it can and will make power.
