From my understanding there is no "Best intake manifold period" it all depends on your setup..

Correct. It all depends on your setup.. There is no such a thing as best when it comes to performance. Everything boils down to setup and TUNING

Yup, the volume of the plenum, the length of the runners, the diameter of the runners, are all dependant on your setup, HP goals, and powerband location.

Though there are some very nice ones out there,

I am surprised no one has mentioned the Endyn carbon fiber manifold yet.

for simple all motor build I like the OEM honda ITR manafold

High quality unit.

Skunk2/aebs are nice, but the casting quality isnt as nice as the ITR in my opinion.

If your going for every HP, supposedly AEBS makes the most out of ITR/Skunk2/AEBS

I cant believe cast manifolds are even being mentioned... the question was what is the best, not best for the price...

Sheet metal IM's by an IM pro will work a cast IM any day of the week...

Well look at the ports, it's not match to the GSR intake ports. Basically they have B16 IM ports with a GSR.

the best hands down intake manifold, is a custom one off hand welded for your own setup.

compression, cams profile, displacement, port work, tuning, they all effect the design of a killer intake manifold.

it all depends upon your own setup.

its the same stupid question that people always ask, whats the best piston, or whats the best cam. there is no "best" thing, just the thing with the least amount of compromise

aebs casting's horrible... i guess it justifies the under $200 price tag. the aluminum seems really weak. i had to repair 2 threads on my buddy's manifold because it pulled out the threads before we could even torque down the iacv. poor quality... good price...
