anyone have an opinions on which is better?

 

victor X is for built motor revving high rpms.

victor X-Optimized for maximum power from 7000 to 10000 RPM, the Victor X Intake manifold is designed for turbo and all-motor applications.
Engineered for high performance and race set-ups, this Intake manifold has four additional bosses for nitrous or added fuel injectors.
The Victor X is 7.5 pounds lighter than the stock Intake manifold and accepts oversized throttle bodies out-of-the-box, like the JG/Edelbrock 65mm throttle body.

skunk2-The Skunk2 Racing Intake Manifold has substantially improved flow characteristics over the factory unit. Dyno-testing has shown an 8 to 15 hp increase on naturally aspirated applications at the wheels. The Skunk2 Racing Intake manifold is also perfect for forced induction applications.
The Skunk2 Racing Intake manifold is designed to utilize all factory sensors.
Use of this Intake manifold will affect emissions.

"Use of this Intake manifold will affect emissions."

this meaning that you would get less gas mileage because it cuts the secondaries out or what?

 

i have i skunk2 intake manifold on my car and the motor sounds awesome

 

i have the skunk2 intake with an ITR throttle body, and it works great! i like it cause i don't make power in the 9000 to 10000 range so for me it works perfect, and i would highly recommened it!

 

If you don't have a fully built N/A or boosted motor, the Victor X is way too big.

 

I was just going to say that the Victor x is waaayy bigger than the skunk 2....

I have a S2 on my LS right now.....and I just got a Victor X for my motor that im am building....when i opened the edelbrock box i was amazed at how much bigger it was than the skunk 2....

Werd. The Skunk2 could fit inside of the Victor X.

 

might be out of topic but I have the ITR replica intake manifold from JDMshit with H22 Throttle body and it sound great and perform wonderful.

 

i would only use the edelbrock for a serious all motor or boosted application due to the vey large size, you would probably lose some air velocity with a slightly modified NA setup

I have the skunk2 manifold on my gsr and it is a very nice product

Your going to have to bore the Intake Manny to match a 68-70mm Throttlebody, I do not know if you can bore a Skunk2 that big or not.

 

Not to thread jack or anything, but which would be better for a boosted applicated running at say 7psi on a b18c1?

I had a skunk2 boosted on my old setup, nothing to complain about, VictorX on my new setup. If you only plan to run that low boost just get the skunk2.

damn. BUMP, does anyone know , what would fit or if it could be done with a skunk2 manifold, because i plan to get one but if im gonna update one thing i wanna just go ahead and change my TB.

 

the inlet size of the skunk2 manifold is 65mm

for a mild all motor I would go with a 68mm throttle body at most

 

Just to show the size comparison between the skunk 2 and the edelbrock.....the skunk 2 is obviously the one installed in the car.

 

i was also wondeirng, would you loose power with the skunk2 being that it has no secondaries and the stock IM does?

Who said you lose power? What are you comparing a loss in power to? A skunk2 will make more power than stock on a boosted car, a victorX will make more in most situations if not all.

 

thats not a real skunk2 intake manifold just to let you know...

you may lose a little low-end power, but you make good increases from the mid to high-end of the power band

 

so if i put a s2 im on a ls with i/h/e and a ,gsr tranny soon to be put on will i have any gains

 

Just so you know it is a real skunk2 intake manifold...I didnt buy it from ebay or nething like that ..i got it from titanmotorsports here in orlando..

its not a pro series....but skunk 2 didnt make the pro series when i bought it.

 

ok... but there is a badge on it somwhere right... i have a pro series skunk2 on mine... but still there should be a badge somewhere, its so hard to find legit skunk2 dealer, not saying you don't have the real thing... but my buddy bought a fake one and it looks identical to yours....

 

all the first gen skunk2 manifolds i have seen dont have a badge anywhere, but i know the skunk2 manifold is one of the most counterfited parts on ebay
