skunk2 intake manifold:

blox intake manifold:

revhard intake manifold:

vitorX intake manifold:

no the GSR has secondary butterflies in the intake manifold. long runners for loew-end torque and short runners for high-end breathing

why not just buy a new Throttle Body. if you buy a new manifold your going to put the busted TB back on and have the same problem

...How can you be members of this site for any amount of time and not know wtf this guy is talking about?

Anyhow. The Blox manifold is the best bet for cost effectiveness of the four mentioned. It's cheap and it's better than the Skunk2.

I'm requesting that a mod make that my title I'd spell it correctly, but still, that's rad.

If I could add one to the list I'm a pretty big fan of the edelbrock IM's...have u looked into them?

If not, out of those 4 I'd have to go with 1-blox, 2-skunk2, 3-revhard, 4-vitorX
