Are the Edelbrock Intake Manifold for GSR any good? i heard alot of good things about the Skunk 2 Intake Manifold, but haven't heard much about the Edelbrock. So yeah, just wondering which one is better? Cuz i'm planning to get a Intake Manifold for my JDM B18C GSR. Thx Guys!

 

from what i have heard the edlebrock are better then skunk2 but it depends what all is done to the motor the victor x is more for a built high reving big cammed motors but it one of the best in the but market for a more stock motor the skunk 2 may be better

 

Here is a link to my GSR Intake System Upgrade

I hope this helps.

These are the parts I added to my 1999 GSR.
Edelbrock Performer X IM
Hondata IM Gasket (to replace old one)
ITR AEM CAI 3"
BPI V-Stack

Final engine bay picture.

 

For most NA builds, the Edelbrock Performer X is the best manifold.

 

whats the main differences between the victor x and performer x?

 

Victor X has short fat runners vs longer and slightly smaller runners. Victor X is meant for high RPM power on a 1.8L race engine or is well suited for many B20 builds. Performer X dominates on 1.8L builds and does well on B20 builds.

 

im debating what to use since i just swapped out an obx im with 68mm tb for twm itbs. Havent got it tuned yet but debating if i wanna keep them since the motors going into a dirt track car. Im running ctr pistion with toda c cams, currently dynoed around 230whp with crappy dc header which has since been swapped for custom race header

 

230whp on a 1.8L? What dyno?

 

192 on a mustang dyno which converts to about 130 give or take, that was with a crappy dc header and 2 1/4 catback n stock cat

 

I've never seen a 1.8L with your mods make even close to that power level. Ever run it at the track?

 

ive seen plenty with similar mods put out the same if not higher numbers. got the dyno sheet posted in my build page.

 

 

tracks are closed..... tuner said it should run high 12s tho, motors going into a dirt track del sol im racing this year. Heres an example of a nicely build b18c putting down 260+

who tuned it? (your car)

A B20 would be hard pressed to make anywhere near those numbers (260hp/232tq) and even a K series would have trouble touching that torque level. Something is seriously wrong with the dyno I'd say.

 

mike @ PSI in MD, there are tons of b18s pushing around 250 with the right setup, my number should be higher now with ITB's and custom long tube race header

seriously?....12's?...Really?
