Shold I get something like the Edlebrock preformer X of skunk2 intake manifold or should I stick with my stock GSR manifold?

also do the aftermarket manifolds have the secondarys?

thanks
stephen

 

What's done to your motor ?
What do you want out of a manifold?

None of the aftermarket ones I know of have secondaries.

 

it is in my daliy...and I am looking to build a decent all motor GSR over time and I am buying a hytech replica header and doing more work when I get the excuse to do it...

 

Where do you want your powerband?

 

I have a CX motor right now.... any "powerband" would be nice...I would like some low but a good bit of mid and high...I drive like a dead person according to my freinds because I rarly see over 2500-3000 rpm's....but it (cx) does have to scoot some times

 

The stock GSR intake manifold will kick the crap out of any manifold below 4,500 RPM-if the butterflies are hooked up and working. Above, 6,200 or so, a Blox or Skunk 2 IM will be better.

 

so I should wire up the butterflys and keep it stock...is that right?

If low end power means more to you then top end power, then yes. If you like to race or keep it wound up, then no.

 

stock motor = stock manifold
semi built = aftermarket manifold

The bolts help out that much eh? Did you use some stainless steel ones or something?

I have a couple of friends using GSR manifolds that I ported on motors making over 200hp at the wheels. They retain the butterflies for low-end performance since they are street cars.

 

sounds good.
