Just wondering if anyone has purchased and installed one of these. You can get them brand new on ebay for around $170. They look like a good copy of a type-r intake, just don't want to get burned.

 

they are good...I am getting one I am pretty sure itsjust as good as the s2

 

why not just spend alittle more and get an aem type r one

It's an identical casting. In fact based on construction I wouldn't be surprised if the same manufacturer makes both of them.

Because AEM doesn't make a Type R intake manifold.

 

I am assuming you mean OEM, I have never seen a AEM intake manifold. Factory ITR intake manifold will not bolt up to a gsr head without modification.

 

yes please, would like to hear how well the BLOX perfoms.

it looks IDENTICAL to the Skunk2.. I wouldn't be surprised if they are made by the same person just with 2 labels on them.

 

the blox is supposed to be almost identical to the oem type r one

 

I can't say how well it performs because I'm still breaking in my clutch and finding small problems with my bar but I have a write-up on installing it in my signature.

 

I have an AN-R.com intake manifold which is pretty much the same manifold as Blox. Here is a dyno graph of my car...sorry no baseline run when it was stock. HTH

The intake manifold AN-R sells is a BLOX IM. I bought one from them too. If you go to their web site it's the only IM they sell.

 

My thoughts to blox for the money .... baught one for b18c and b16a installed on b18c+hondata shield+longer studs no problems fitament was great quality looked great definitely a good mani for the $$... now if i can only decide what to do with the extra coolant port on the gsr blox mani

 

Dremel off the small coolant port and JB weld that hole shut !

 

there is a dyno somewhere on ht that proves that the blox made more power then the skunk2.... blox!

 

I wish they had this when I got the skank 2's, looks identical...
Oh ya helped out a homie wit one and it's doing him fine!!
