Me and my buddy are tryin to make our minds up which one is better only seen the Skunk2 reviews anyone on the Edelbrock one?

 

I am wondering the same thing, but for a N/A motor

 

Ask Wil at exospeed! He's testing one right now!

 

Never mind,, i just ordered the Skunk Ii one from lightning motorsports

 

I sent Exospeed a note to see what they have found out.....if anything yet.

 

Bump

 

Get up there, I want to know too

 

if its for a CRX,forget the skunk2.It wont fit cause its too tall...unless you beat the firewall with a hammer to make it fit.As for the edelbrock,I dont know the measurements of it but it looks as tall as the skunk2

I waited soooo long for the skunk2 to come out only to find out it wouldnt fit oh well,Im praying and hoping Edelbrock comes out with a Victor X for us turbo D guys. I think that performer X is just as whack as the skunk2,its too tall and N/A biased

anyway,here is the bad news about the skunk2 in EFs I found out while researching this topic a few months ago https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=580886

 

How much room do you need in a CRX?

The Edelbrock manifold mounts the IAC valve under the manifold for extra clearance, and angle the throttle body so the CAI clears the fuel filter.

It only takes up 11 3/4" back from the head.

exospeed is putting the manifold on a CRX racecar with a A6 engine the last I talked to him, or at least wanted to use the Edelbrock manifold.

Well, I just measured and it appears there is enough room, but has anyone done it and it didn't fit?

there is about 12.5 inch so if the Edelbrock is 11 3/4 it should fit..The Skunk2 is 13 1/4 with the IAC being the tallest point.

 

isnt there a post about someone installing a skunk2 in a 88-91 already? he said he was gonna post pics but he never did...

 

The only one I remember was singlecam screamer who did post with pics but it was an 92-95
