Skunk2 intake manifold + SD for big stock turbo punch!!

After an intake manifold upgrade and speed density, we were pleased to see the gains upstairs with this combo...

Evo Ix
stock turbo
cosworth 272's
tbe
Skunk2 intake manifold
Stock tb
E-Spec tuned Speed density on stock ECU
93 octane only

The gains were as high as 50hp in certain areas ,, overall we're very pleased with the results and consider it a good bang for the buck.





With 355hp the car ran this....



,,,, Looking to see the trap speeds up to 117-119mph now!!

How was the fitment with the skunk2 manifold? I have only heard complaints regarding its less than optimal fitment requiring trimming in certain areas.

What did the curve look like out the top? That is what I was wondering about

No surprise here, the skunk2 intake mani performs and so does the throttle body, people like Kracka and TatsuIX talk bad about it, just because of some old problems a few years back


here's mine MAP ported and everything!
