wrong blox is not the same as a skunk 2 intake manifold. if you look closely inside the runners you will see that the blox manifold is slightly bigger and has a smoother finish.

AEBS outperforms them all, and, it's much cheaper. you could pay more, but, why???????

Not yet, they say "soon" but they have been saying that for a while.

The blox/Wicked Intake mani is lighter and boast a bit better casting. The runners are smoother just a bit.

Im about to bolt one of these on my giizer motor in about a week.

dyno charts soon ASAP.

I have a skunk2 LS IM and a Blox IM. I will dyno the LS IM if you guys want to see the differeance.....I dont have a skunk2 GSR manifold so I cant compare the 2 unless some one wants to donate thier car for a day.....give me some one that has a skunk2 IM and Ill provide the rest and give you guys the results.......oh and by the way......Blox and skunk2 are 2 different manifolds....and wicked is a repackaged Blox IM

I have a Skunk2 intake mani on my B18b, and it performs very well, however I have to agree the worksmanship is not too great andI had to drill all the holes so it could fit on the head!

Skunk2

Performance
Craftmanship

in terms of quality, the AEBS is crap.

The skunk2 isnt much better...

Agreed, but it does make more power than the stock ITR.
