<![CDATA[intake manifolds]]>Hey guys just looking for some opinions on intakes and all that other jolly good have fun performance crap. i got it narrowed down to a Skunk2 Pro-Series, Blox, or Edelbrock performance X...Ive heard some good things about the X and the Pro...anyone know anything about the Blox one?

plus if i get a new manifold...should i get a new throttle body as well?

yes...VERY different.

aren't the b16 and b18c1 manifolds the same? that's why i asked about all the other items. if they aren't already done or on the radar for near future upgrading, the intake would be wasteful.

found it, looks like it's 12 amps versus the 2.2 they claim.. blows air at up to 215mph, so just upgrade your alternator and we're in business. =D

my track times were accualy a second slower with my skunk2 intake mani compared to my stock b16 mani.

you would need more supporting mods to feel any noticable gains with an aftermarket im

if you have a relitivly stock motor which i think you do, the only good intake i have seen make power was a stock gsr mani custom fit to a ls head, and the butterfly's were acuated at a curtain rpm using his hondata s300.

You will be spening alot of $$$ for 5whp if that.
