Default Blox intake manifold, good quality for turbo?

I've seen the "Blox" intake manifold for sale on ebay, would that be a good upgrade to use with my turbo B20B?

Now to actually answer your question, its just like an AEBs or skunk2. It will be better than stock, but its not an amazing manifold by any means. I had it on my LS. Was pretty disappointed by the outcome for the 200 bucks you pay.

interesting. isnt it a knockoff itr manifold like skunks and aebs? i thought they were all just about the same thing.

i would think that the more power you make the more it would help out over a stock manifold... but that is just my speculation. anyhow, i hope it helps i just bought one for my lsv turbo

its a knock of the itr intake manifold. the skunk2 flows slighty better and then the aebs flows really well from what ive seen. i went with the victor x as well cuz if youre spending more than $100 on your intake manifold, the edlebrock is the only one thats going to show a decent return for your investment.

the blox manifold is made for the powerband of the ls motor. The victor x is made for the power band levels of the b16a motors and such that are revving far passed 7k.

to answer the question for the OP, yes the blox would be good for you. Mainly all depends where your powerband is, but the ls and b20 are pretty much identical motors.

i would still opt for the skunk2 over the blox or theres a guy on ebay that sells ported typhoon manifolds relatively cheap and those are supposed to work really well.
