Intake Manifold: Skunk2 or BLOX

Hey, im going to bet getting a intake manifold this week for my 00 Si, but i have found two choices, BLOX or skunk2. From what I hear, they are identical..I can get the blox for 224 while the skunk2 is 265. Anyone know if they are the same? Thanks.

I would go with Skunk2 for 2 reasons:

1. Never heard of BLOX and only heard good things of Skunk2 mani.
2. CARB legal (and your in cali, need i say more?)

The s2 and blox manifold is essentially the same. Is there a carb number for the s2 IM now, or has there been?

if thats the case, get the AEBS one.

what it comes down to, what is more important, price or it being Carb EO.
