A friend of mine is all about doing weird ****. He didnt like the h22 manifold, and since skunk2 doesnt have one out for it, he port matched the b16 to it. Check out these pics. Any comments?

 

i wonder if the b16 one is big enough to move 2.2L of air? that would be sick if it works but whats the size of the tb's? compared to each other?

 

I believe the b16 b18 and h22 throttlebodies are the same. I'll keep you guys posted on its performance. Keep the feedback coming!

 

Whats wrong with the h22 manifold. It plenum is much larger than any b16 manifold.

 

It's like the b18c manifold, big, clunky, and poorly designed. We'll see how it works though.

 

thats plum crazy

 

thanks!

 

do the ports match up?? how many holes did he have to redrill??

 

The gsr manifold that is a poor design that is used on all ericks racing motors.

 

Did he check to see if the ports even match up? b/c i have pics of both intake manifold gaskets, and the ports DO NOT line up for the life of them. I wonder what kind of work he did.

 

must have had to shave so much aluminum off them. then weld on where it needed some. lol.

ok ok guys, so the b18c and h22 arent poorly designed, just room for improvement I guess. He outlined the the gasket from the h22 on the b16 manfiold and the port matched from there. When I saw it, it was a perfect line up. I'll ask him if he can take it off and show you guys. I'll post the picture if I can catch him before he puts the motor in the hatch.

 

cant u use the h22 type s intake manifold? wouldnt that have been easier then all that?

 

when you say "all that" it sounds like you mean its a lot of work. But it wasnt. And a type-s manifold would be WAY more expencive than a b16.

lets see here...factors

1) cost
2) it probably flows better than a S because it doesnt have the rough casting surface...its smooth
3) its custom...whats better than saying mines different?

 

H22 type-s is just about the same as any other h22 h23 dual-runner IM maybe just cast with a finer sand for smoother finish. If you are talking about the single runner H22 IM then you mean the Euro R accord manifold.

the Pirate

 

Wow, that's very interesting. I wonder how well it flows.

 

jz is crazy.....looks good though!!!

 

keep us updated on how it runs

 

if anything, it surely looks better than the stock h manifold. i dig it cuz you know i'm all about that stock intake hybrid ****...can always do a itr or aebs later.

 

Thats awesome. I'd like to see how that turns out.

 

Hmmmm……I have two B16 Ims sitting around collecting dust….. a friend building up his H22 and access to a machine shop…..I might have a new project to work on!!

 

thats tight. i wonder if it will actually have a gain over the H22 mani. get some dyno's with both manifolds
