Default Skunk 2 intake manifold and throttle body

I have a GSR with aem intake and greddy exuast.

Im looking into the skunk2 Intake manifold and throttle body, I can get both of these for 500$. Will I get good gains out of these 2. Is it worth it. What would you recomend I do to it for performance. under a grand. AEM pulley kit? DC sports header?
let me know I wanna have a good gsr here.

Yeah i know turbo is the best option,should i save up for one because nothing will really add hp to my gsr? I need to get promoted or something.haha.ok thank you for your time and consideration.

also.... is it true that when you install a skunk2 intake manifold for the gsr, its basically like a type R manifold and you now have a single butterfly design. instead the gsr's dual butterfly design. due to this you have to tune your ecu or ur vtec is gonna kick in earlier. vtec needs to raised?

can you just install and plug n play boom u got more hp with the skunk2 intake manifold and throttle body.

k first off a skunk2 is a nice add u really feel the diffrence under turbo, or with cams, on its own its not too bad! The skunk2 is like a type R mainfold but a better 4th runner on it, it has no butterflies its a single stage mainfold, u can use a VAFC to raise your vtec engagement point up to avoid bogging. On my gsr i had the skunk2 intake, skunk2 stage 1 cams, comptech header, hondata gasket, comptech ice box, VAFC 2, apexi N1 ehuast and aem 5 bolt pulleys and that yeilded me about 175 whp, i switched up for turbo so i have the cams, the header, the air intake, VAFC all up for sale. DO your research about the turbo its not jsut put it on and your done, u need to really do your homework. Save your money on the pully kits they are usless. oh and if u decide to use a hondata gasket with your skunk2 u will need larger studs! Also as far as throttle body imo go type R but no larger cause u sacrafice way to much bottom end or if u are inclined to get one don't get bigger then 65mm cause that is as big as your skunk2 intake hope that covers all yoru questoins

You've made it very apparent that you don't know much about Honda's.
