Default skunk2 pro series VS. edelbrock victor X.

Im new to engine building scene and this is my first motor i am assembling. as far as high performance that is. i have rebuilt a few engines following oem specs, meaning using all stock compression and stuff at work. anyways cutting to the point I am putting together a motor for my daily driver. it is a 85mm sleeved b20 vtec that i might be spraying with a 75, or 100 shot of nitrous tops from time to time when ever i have a chance to go to the track. from what i have read the victor x will give me more top end power while the skunk 2 will give me a better powerline all around. im wondering what would be more practical for my type of set up since i will be driving it allmotor most of the time yet hitting it with some forced induction (nitrous) ocasionally. all help is gladly appreciated, thank you.

The Performer X is supposed to be the best all-around manifold.

The victor x is superior. But if you are going to squeeze, I would look into the nitrous bisi cams. They are made for nitrous application. Call there tech department for any questions you might have. Good luck.

Thanks everyone. I'm still looking into the nitrous situation. This motor is going into my daily so I'm a bit skeptical as to how reliable the motor will be after I spray a few times. So I'm still debating wether to increase compression from 11.5 to 12:1 and stay all motor with some rocket motorsport cams.
