Default which intake manifold for b18c1??

i decided to go ahead and get rid of the nasty dual butterfly intake manifold for my b18c1. now i am torn between the skunk manifold and the edlebrock manifold. i am going turbo if that helps the decision.. i can get the edlebrock mani for about 280 plus tak at a shop here in ATL or i can get a skunk mani for about te same price. i have heard good things about teh skunk but not much about teh edlebrock any advice??

I have the skunk2 one. I have no plans of boost though. If you get the edelbrock there is no turning back. You have to boost it.

You can, but you won't be very happy with it. Why not just wait and put it on with the rest of your turbo? And yeah, for boost go with JG, very nice intake mani for boost!

well my motor is already out of the car gonna be swapped in this coming weekend. i wanted to change the intake manifold while its out of the car (easier). but i wont be able to put my turbo kit on fopr at least another month because i odn thave enoght money for hondata or tuning yet so im gonna have to go all motor for about a month and i want to get rid of this nasty stock intake manifold so i dont have to worrk about wiring up the IAB's i hear too many different ways to wire them up and i cant choose the correct way.

i hear many people say switch A17 to A20 which is the purge solonoid pin but if i do that then i wont have use of the purge solenoid. then i hear people say just run the pink and blue wire to PIN A17 on teh ecu plugs and run the other wire on teh IAB plug to a 12 volt constant then i hear people say that the wires on teh IAB plug are pink/blue and black but thats not true casue on my 95 gsr harness the wires are pink/blue and yellow/black. so as u can see i cant tell whats teh right way so to get rid of th=is headache id rather just get a new manifold that dopesnt need IAB's wired up
