Why not get an ITR manifold.

it's pretty easy nothing you have to do except extend a coolant line... and switch everthing else over

The Skunk2 and ITR manifolds are basically one and the same thing. In fact, why do you think the Skunk2 manifold for the B16A is so cheap and the B18C and B18A/B18B/B20 manifolds cost more? Because the B16A manifold competes directly with the ITR and there is no OEM alternative for the GSR or LS/CR-V.

The Skunk2 manifold yields SLIGHTLY better hp, and is a DIRECT bolt-on, unlike the ITR manifold. And for less $$, hell I'd definitely get the Skunk2 over the ITR...

I've always been qouted cheaper with the USDM ITR manifold. That's why I recommended it. I think we all know they're both the same in design.

sorry for my ignorance, i thought b18c5 head cast and b16 head cast were the same cast. why would the ITR mani not fit?

the b18c5 and the b16 heads do have the same bolt pattern. The skunk2 intake manifold is designed like a type r but with the gsr bolt pattern.
