Default Blox Manifold good forr turbo?

sup,
one of my buddies is trying to get rid ofa new blox manifold for 200 dollars. well back to the subject, my plans for my b16 is turbo toward the near future. im not going for a NA set up at all...im already gonna loose a **** load of money on the comptech header, high flow cat, etc...... im looking for parts to put on temporarily that will also work with turbo. its a blox manifold....are there better manifolds to work with turbo? also the blox manifold is made for a gsr will it fit the b16? thanks

reading it looks like you're talkin bout the intake manifold.

its fine for turbo but i woudlnt put it on just for hte sake of putting it on. youll prob gain a few HP. but hte b16 has a pretty good design for low end power.


200 bucks for an intake manifold isnt really a steal. its about market value

if youre talkin bout the turbo manifodls. 200 i'd pick it up in a second.


btw a gsr intake manifold will not fit a b16


if you wanan change it. i'd recommend the aEBS . its cheap and it makes good power if not better than the blox/skunk2/ITR ( by a few hp)

really dpeends what you're looking for. if you want more top end. go with a JG edelbrock. i think its only good for high boost trhough. if you're gonna stay aroudn low boost under 10 psi on a regular t3t4 just stick with the stock manifodl thats on the car and go for other upgrades.
