Does anyone have this intake on their stock d16?
Skunk2 Intake manifold

Can you tell any difference?
I'm about to get a new headgasket put on and i figured i'd go ahead buy this intakeand put it on while the head is off.

 

pete had one on his d16z6 and it did increase hp, made a funny whistling sound though.

 

I found a brand new one for $200 local. Think i should do it?

 

sure why not. sounds like a good deal.

 

i've heard installation is a bitch, something about having to drill holes for sensors, idk, i coulda been drunk when i was reading that part, but $200, i say go for it.

 

I just talk to the guy. Should be picking it up tonight. I'll be installing it while the head is off so i dont think it should be too hard. Plus i have a Honda Machanic that is going to help with changing the head gasket. I'm sure i few more dollars he would help with the intake.
I'll be posting before and after pics. and pics of the instal soon.

 

edit

 

keep me updated on it bro...i'm just waiting for my Edelbrock IM to come in at my local store and i'll be installing it within the next couple weeks! the skunk2 looks good!

 

-^ I will. Take some pics when you install yours too. I heard Edelbrock is good too.

 

i had the same manifold on my z6. yes it makes a kool sound...lol...but to be honest with you unless you port and polish your head to move the extra air incoming to your head you wont notice that much hp gain, it woud be pointless. i got my head ported and polished for like 100 at a local machine shop. and you need to either fab a throtlle cable bracket, or did what i did and put the stock one in a vise and heat it up and bend it the oppisite way that way its not all jacked up i would take pics but i sold the car like a dumb ace...lol good luck
