as i have previously posted on the fact im going all motor. looking for a good intake manifold. heard from a guy that aebs outperforms blox and skunk2 on a dyno and makes more power. curious if anyone has a dyno to back it up or if they have personally used it thanks

 

Heard from a guy the stock type"R" was the beast.

 

not just a guy but a guy who owns his shop and builds a few cars. says it outperforms cause its smoother inside and flows better. just curious if anyones used one

 

what does smoothness have to do with performance?

how about differences in plenum volume? runner length? runner diameter?...etc.

i would take the advice of the old man above you.

Matters if he is talking about smooth as airflow or surface

Dumb topic though.

 

it looks to have a bigger plenum volume over blox, shorter wider runners and i believe he meant airflow but i could be wrong ill talk wiht him this weekend. and if it was dumb you didnt have to post to it.

what about the edelbrock one?

 

its funny to read 8 pagse are see barely any dynos just what people think. would be nice to see a good dyno but hey cant win them all i guess

 

pX &gt; both manifolds you talked about.

 

i take it you mean performer x and you got a dyno or experience on them. if not aebs seems like its a better manifold

If your going to buy an aebs, you might as well buy a og skunk2 manifold..for the money..

I have not dyno my new setup yet, because its not finished.
but i'm taking in 35% more fuel across the map since i switched from ITBS to the pX and i was already 25% more fuel with the itbs over a og skunk2 manifold, which is compareble to the aebs..if your going to spend the money get a IB ported manifold or a pX, its been proven time and time again, the pX is probably one of the best manifolds for a 1.8 liter.. search it on here.. It beat the victor X, ported itr manifold and another manifold by ALOT..

Yes i did and for that matter didn't king motor sports do some dyno comparisons with all the manifolds on this forum somewhere i remember reading and i believe as expected the performer X came out best

further more you may wish to talk with b20coupe i think his name is if i recall i believe he has also done extensive testing with IM's

 

ill look into it. for right now im going to buy the hytech rep header and try to do some heat testing with the headers and the ones with hot temp
