Default Intake manifold question

Hey im thinking about either buying a Edlebrock or Skunk 2 intake manifold, I have a 97 integra GSR with a Greddy Evo Exhaust, 4-1 Header, and a cold air intake. i'm wondering what intake manifold to get and whether or not the power gains or worth it with theset up i have. Thanks

i would wait. without at least a set of cams and some tuning, you'll lose some low-end definitely. i bought a skunk2 mani because i lost the little vacuum canister and my secondary butterflies didn't work. i should have just tried harder to find one, and now i kinda regret it.
oh well, at least i'll have it for later when i can really use it...

I know the question has basically been answered but the GS-R Intake manifold seals it's mid-range power, so if you were to get rid of it, you need to somehow compensate for the loss in mid-range power you will experience with both of those IM's. So if you find a way to compensate the loss, you'll still have tons of midrange power along with a very nice top end which aftermarket im's are made for.

^ I agree. If you're not boosting, then stay with your stock intake manifold. I don't have enough money right now for one, but sooner or later I'll have to get it.
