Default aebs vs skunk 2 IM

I have a GSR engine with 99 SI tranny. Well what do people like better i know the price on the Aebs is a lot cheaper and the Skunk 2 is a lot more, but witch one gives better flow and power. The engine is going into my 90 CRX with OBD 1 Conversion. Well any info on witch one is better will be helpful. Well i probbaly know im going to get flamed or get told to search but oww well i have done this all ready or eles i wouldn't be asking.

i used to run a b18c1 with itr cams (switched to b16 block with same p72head) i put a skunk 2 on the 18c had mucho top end (7-8500) but lost all that torque from 3500 to 5000 had v-tec set to 6000 so it kinda hung from 5-6 did no tuning i was going to get the aebs but it was sill in development for the p72 when i wanted to order. i did talk to one of the technicians from aebs and they said thier im made very similar results as a skunk 2 but they opted for slightly smaller runner ports to keep midrange velocity up aka more midrange tourque
basic formula as follows- skunk 2 if drag, aebs if you enjoy that midrange or if you autox
by the way are you set up for any fuel enrichment, if you are you probly wont loose as much mid as i did
PS: removing that p72 manifold is a pain in the @$$

i just bought the AEBS over the skunk and blox....

reason being, its cheap as hell....


and R&D of the AEBS included not just copying an ITR manifold as like the blox and skunk, but the angle at which the runners are faced into the cylinder is modified due to the difference in p72/p73 head....

My Skunk2 helped my GSR make some good power. It went on along with many other bolt-ons so as to it helping alone, I don't know. But I do know it works perfect for me.
