If it's a stock motor you're droppin in and aren't tuning with anything, you're waaaaaaay better off leaving your stock IM on for now. You will lose a ****-pot of power by puting that S2 manifold on.

really? how many headers you got? My b16 only has one lol. Since you have type r cms I'd imagine it would help....When I installed my IM and TB I lost power(about 2-6hp & 1-3 tq up till 4000) but then gain I still have the stock cams, getting blox 1s and rage header soon enough. Just my advice (Because I didn't notice much gain with it) the hondata IM gaskets are a waste, with those three parts even after tuning I still only gained like 3 hp and 1 ft/lb.
