Well I think I might go ahead and buy a Intake manifold because I really want to eliminate the secondaries on my teg. My question is whats the difference in the skunk2 manifold and the new PRO series. Sitting here looking at both of them and don't really see a big diff.

lol, the best answer is gave me was that its newer and better design, the great part is that they're the same cost, I like the original skunk2 manifold because of the sleeper look compared to the ITR. Any help will be appreciated

Doesn't the Pro have the little emblem/logo on it? Wouldn't doubt it if that was it... :tongue:

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE NEW AND OLD SKUNK 2 MANIFOLD IT REDESIGNED RUNNER ENTRIES AND NITROUS BOSSES LIKE THE JG INTAKE. AND OF COURSE THE SKUNK 2 BADGE. THATS ALL.



IM THE MAN, I KNOW. :king:

PRO Manifold is simply a redesign of the old manifold. Matter of fact you cant order the old manifold anymore, they discontinued it.

THe new manifold has slightly different runners an diameters. it all adds up tp about .0000001hp difference. there were tests on HT an the difference was negligible.

ive always been a BIG fan of the AEBS manifold, CHEAP, EFFECTIVE, etc.

Kteller.com sells them for like $175 WITH a HONDATA gasket

lol, me and brent were the first to open it as soon as it came in, half the shit is in japanese dude, only thing we could read was on the back side, all it really said was now the NEO is the safc and vafc combined. Looks retro but other than that I don't think its worth $500.
