Is the full race a better manifold then the JG? Prolly. Is it worth the extra money? Depends...say the f-r makes 5hp more - is that worth twice the money to you?

For the money, the JG is really hard to beat IMO.

There was a test done on this and the Full Race IM made significant gains over the JG, not just 5hp.

Here is a test between the Full Race IM and the AIR IM:

There was also a test done between the AIR and the JG:

well for us california guys, its good cause it looks stock.... and actually they are carb legal now(i dont know about the jg one... but i think those are too)

i just put one(skunk2) on a 2.0L gsr motor i built for turbo.... so i was just wondering the difference in flow.... cause cant find the flow of the skunk2 of there site so was wondering if anyone had done a test on it.

Well yeah...i just pulled that 5hp number outa my ***. Im just saying it really depends on how much money you wanna spend. Some people would be happy with a JG, alot of people are happy with a stock IM. I suppose its all about your budget.

Personally i run a custom sheetmetal JG intake manifold (not the cast one) and am really happy with it. If they made an AIR for my car i might seriously consider buying it. ZC gets no love so i gotta work with what i got.
