Are those two manifolds longer than the stock one? I know with my oem one i have plenty of firewall clearance, almost more than with a b-series.

euror without a doubt, the skunk2 is HUGE compared to it, and jams against stuff even in a larger accord bay. the euror is tiny, looks like a stock d manifold.

you have no firewall issues...you can take the manifold out with the head on the car....its cake....go with whichever you choose...

With the QSD kit you have plenty of room for either manifold however the Skunk is definitly larger (runner length).

If clearance was an issue, and you wanted the skunk2 manifold... I believe you could cut down the Skunk2 manifold runners as much as 1/2" to 1" (where each runner is straight as possible) and re weld it...take some work and I am sure plenty of die grinder time to smooth out the inside...impossible no...

Why are all the h22 manifolds extremely long? Will they not benefit from a short runner manifold like the victor x?

As far as I know which isn't much short runners are better for FI...and 250+ NA jobs...believe it or not honda was pretty smart with the stock H22A manifold...unless your pushing 220+ whp leave or modify the stock H22A manifold...I wouldn't be amazed from a direct intake manifold swap from Stock H22A to a Skunk2 if you lost power...all depends on the setup...

I know someone that made 205whp on a stock internal longblock and with bolt on's and that Skunk2 manifold. I have always heard bad things about them, still do. It's kinda like the ITR manifold VS the VictorX, the Victor X does really good on top and that's why we have used it in Drag, wouldn't surprise me if it would do well on the H22 as well.

i noticed a pretty big difference when i switched from a type-r style manifold to a victor-x on my b motor, never dynoed it though, along with some cams i dropped four tenths. I am thinking about maybe trying to fabb something up for the H.

Damn...whats a muffler doing on the intake? lol jk that setup is obviously what you call all out race...

From what I heard JGE manifolds do really well...they can make a special manifold to your certain specs and needs and for the money I believe it's not that bad of a deal...spend a lil bit more bypass the skunk2 and get a JGE...

I can't find any where that explains it, it all points to 2point6's dead site.

Anyone know if the Euro R (Type S) manifold is longer then a normal JDM H22A?

Measure from where the flange meets the head to the farthest point back, if anyone has a Euro R...
