I know the skunk 2 is a "replica" of the type r but is the skunk 2 any better?

 

no. the AEBS unit is better than both in terms of POWER and PRICE.

 

How come you say it outdoes the Skunk2 in power??? Are there any dyno sheets to prove this??? I'd like to know since I'm considering getting one in the next couple of days.

stock s2 "type-r" manifold

"Our manifold preparation for one of these engines begins with a Skunk2 casting. We cut the plenum in half to facilitate the porting and plenum reshaping."

stock/ported

"When I tell people that these manifolds weigh as much as 2 lbs less when we're finished, they think I'm kidding. Believe it. We rather dramatically alter the runner volumes, cross sectional areas, window shapes, and plenum entry geometries in this rework."

finished manifold:

"Here's the semi-finished manifold interior. The runner roofs are now shorter than the floor, by exactly the ports' dimensional differences. Note the inverted radius we achieve at the upper runner-to-plenum intersect. With the plenum side in place and a 64mm throttle body, this manifold will out-flow the best individual throttle body combination we've ever tested."

Ever seen any pre- vs. post- comparison numbers on that int. mani.?

 

now after doing this is it going to make any diff. if you still have a stock head that hasn't been ported or anything? was wondering cause i have a stock type r mani and was thinking about getting one of your mani's.

don't plan to buy one, but would like to see results of the effort. RLZ offers the same service.

 

have not dynoed my car with the stock manifold.. because i'm not titan motorsports i wish i could have done stock manifold vs this.. maybe i'll get one after its all complete and just throw a stock s2 manifold on to compare.. maybe someone else has already?

 

I tested the AEBS IM against the ITR IM on my ITR with Skunk Stage 2 cams and Hondata. Both manifolds were tuned. The AEBS picked up about 2hp in most of the upper rpm band. I still run the AEBS today.

 

i would like to see a skunk2 vs aebs manifold dyno, last year i saw a skunk2 mani vs itr mani and the skunk2 got 2whp more on top end, but this was on a stock jdm R motor.

 

I'm interested because I think it could be a pretty cheap DIY mod for some people with access to alu. welding. I'd be interested to see what a ported mani. would do the powerband on a fairly stock and modded set-up.

 

I had a jdm gsr motor and i had my stock intake manifold ported and a 70mm throttle body from dhracing with a cp cai and i gained big hp and trq. They say that will get at least 25 hp or they will buy it back. It works im going to get one for my type r intake maifold. They say it has bigger #s...
Check them out...
I got crazy top end.. 3rd pulled hard on my lsd tranny..

ill telll ya somethin. that 2whp can probably be 5whp or more if that POS casting was tossed for something like S2 or ITR casting



get that sucker ported!

ITR for comparison

 

check out Wicked's site... Their manifold gained 8+ whp. shows you comparison w/ Skunk........plus 1 lbs lighter

 

dhracing.com fastest b16a world dyno h22a

 

I put an AEBS on my b16 and theres noting better and the price is un real

 

I like the power the aebs manifold makes, its a little better than a type R, But.....
The quality of the unit is less than that of oem, skunk, and the wicked models. The casting is kind of rough and you have to be super carefull when mounting the trottle body. If you mount it to tight, the threads will crack and you'll have an air leak and fluctuating idle.

i do have a aebs manifold on my car, but i have been thinking of getting it extrude honed. i think it might be cheaper, and it will net good numbers. what do you guys think, let me know!

 

jus get the wicked manifold.no hassle.. they have dyno charts

do you run itb's, itb type-r

 

dude send it to dh racing. Dont be like these othere guys who just bolt on what ever one else bolts on. 5hp total. Big f.... deal. Mine looked stock and pulld on str4s by a car and a half... No bottom built ether... all motor. No apex, cams, or nos..

 

or better get the aebs manifold ported by dhr and a matching tb. he is doing a deal on them now dh-racing.com

endyn (www.theoldone.com) gasket matches the s2 manifold.. and also matches the manifold to a 65mm jg edelbrock tb... i'm guessing they could do it differnt size if needed too..
