#266981 depends your application sir.

you going to be built all motor (B20 vtec etc..) or turbo'd? you know something that will need that volume of air.
By CaptainSlow
#267624 The application is All Motor , with an approx 11.5 CR , with most interest in touge (uphill/downhill) and sometimes a 1/4mile (0-400m) .

The VictorX IM is garbage for a naturally aspirated engine. It'll work, yes, but it won't allow the engine to produce nearly as much power as with a Skunk2 or a B18C5 intake manifold.

Reading your desired driving styles, I'd say get a Skunk2 or AEBS unit due to the better flow characteristics over the B18C5 manifold.

#268923 Skunk2 simply took the design of the ITR intake manifold and improved it with a slightly larger plenum, longer/straighter runners, smoother transitions, better alloys with better heat dissipation characteristics, and the ability to receive a larger throttle body with no issues.
