Default Intake Manifold Question???

I was just looking at buying a new manifold for my 2000 Type R and had a couple questions.

The obvious choices are go all out for the toda racing, go middle of the road with a skunkz, or just stick with the Type R

Questions are:
What are the price differences betwen the two(obviously the Type R comes with the car)?
Which one's better(opinion)?
What kind of gains can be seen from the skunks and the Toda over the Type R?
Will you be able to pass emissions test with the Toda or Skunkz?
Will they be street legal?
And are there easiar upgrade options with one or the other, or work better with other bolt on mods?

Well I think that about covers it all, thanks for you input, adios.

Stick with the stock manifold. It will do for pretty much anything u need.
Skunk2 = ITR manifold so that should tell you something.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought that the skunk 2 manifold had slightly shorter runners, and the ports were a little bit wider.

From what I have seen they are pretty much identical.

They just make them to bolt on to non-b16a heads.

O.K. so what do you guys think of this...
Extrude honing a itr manifold, then port matching it to my 65mm throttle body. There is one that a buddy of mine wants to sell to me for 450, and someone else wants to buy my manifold for 200 bucks, so my total investment would be 250. Do guys think that it is a worth it???

So are the three manifolds different? And I take it both of you don't think the Toda Manifold is worth the money for the gains it produces

I think the toda manifold is designed for top end power and drag racing. I think you would lose a lot of low to mid-range power.

extrude honing isnt really worth it either.
