Default Will the JG IM benifit my setup?

Right now I have a nice little LS/Vtec setup with a 8000 RPM rev limit, p&p head, and ITR cams?

Rocket told me the JG manifolds only make power in the extremely high rpm range.

It has to make more power than the b16 manifold I have now! The only reason Im going to buy it it cause in the future I wuld benifit from it, and its not too much more than the Skunk2 IM if I get it from Rocket.

So will I actually loose HP & Torque with this manifold? I don't even see how thats possible going from the 1st gen b16 manifold.

I would go with the Type R or skunk2 manifold. I have heard that the JG is mainly for turbo set ups, and doesn't t work that well N/A.
