The Blox manifold cost less and it is better quality than Skunk2.


The BLOX one-piece cast aluminum intake manifold will greatly improve your engine's overall flow characteristics compared to the factory unit.

By using the latest in casting technology, the overall weight of each unit is dramatically reduced which makes the BLOX intake manifold the lightest in the industry. Each application has been designed using a larger plenum and longer intake runners. Each is then tuned for peak power at high RPM.

BLOX intake manifolds are ideal for naturally-aspirated and forced induction applications. All factory sensors and throttle body may be utilized, while the recessed bolt holes make for a simpler installation.

Applications are currently available for Honda / Acura 1.6-1.8L DOHC VTEC and non-VTEC engines. CARB-EO is currently pending.

Honda D-series and K-series intake manifolds TBA.

The Edlebrock IM for a NA motor is gonna kill your performance unless you're running something enormous with huge huge cams. The plenums on em are designed more for turbo'd cars. The Blox is a good manifold, also maybe check into the new Skunk Pro series manifold. Between the first gen Skunk and the Blox....Blox hands down.

Aside from not being as "pretty" the AEBS IM is better designed.

Runner size, shape, plenum shape and placement of the runners in the plenum.

Has worked awesome on my buddy's 230+ (church dyno) ITR motor.

The GSR AEBS is even better suited for the app since it's not no generic ITR copy made to fit a P72 head.
