I need some opinions. either go with a victor x IM or Skunk2 for my built turbo lsv.

My last set up (b16 head) i had stock cams (b16) with a skunk2 IM,made 575whp. I went with the skunk2 IM for one reason,i didnt want the motor to be a turd out of boost,and i wanted my mid range torque.

Now im re-doing my set up. New things are fully built GSR head (Ferra stainless steel valves,skunk2 valvesprings/Ti retainers,Skunk2 pro1 cams) and im either going with the precision pt61,t04r. Shooting for now around mid to high 6's with room to go higher in future. With the cams/turbo im running now,its going to push the power a little more uptop then the old set-up (garrett 60-1,Skunk2 IM,b16 cams). So im torn between the two IM for this reason:

Of course its going to be a top end car,but i dont want to kill off my mid range power/torque. Ive seen many threads/dynos where the victor x loses alot of mid-range in sacrifice for top end. Then again i dont want to get the skunk2 IM and at those power levels,have it hold me back up top.

This is not a drag car,its a street/strip car,this is why im worried about keeping some mid range power/torque usable. Opinions welcome.....

 

Victor X.. no contest

Ive had mine on my car with 450+ whp daily and no issues at all... its a great piece

 

try looking at the performer x. it might be just what your looking for. http://www.edelbrock.com/autom...shtml

 

Many decide to use the skunk2 manifold because it gives much better midrange than the victorX but the victorX will definately give you top-end. Seeing as you are running a rather large turbo most of your powerband will be towards the higher rpms anyways so run the VictorX!

 

you want tq in a b16 ? lol
