It'll pull a bit harder but not gains like on the GSR motor. The Skunk2 manifold is basically a Type-R manifold which has shorter runners than the B16 manifold, correct?

Nooooooooo!!

The B16 stock intake is better than a Type-R, and the Skunk is a type-R copy.

Si manifold is better than a ITR manifold? i guess i have never seen flow charts for comparison but seeing as how ITR has more power than Si i'd assume it to be better flowing...

ITR manifold owns the B16 manifold...you have to port the B16 manifold a lot for it to even compare with the ITR manifold. Also the runners are a bit shorter for quicker air induction and better top end pull.

I put a Skunk2 IM on my 99 Si felt good up top, but might of lost some mid-range. I also upgraded TB to a Spoon TB. Picked them both up for pretty cheap($450 for both) so it was worth it. Pain in the *** to install
