On another topic, do you feel your ITBs helped a lot with power? Worth it? I plan to go with Full Blown intake manifold for any more gains I can get out of this motor.

i think they are too small up top but help in the low and mid range but at like 6500 its choking the motor

the problem i see with all these aftermarket manifolds are they are meant for FI. i want a manifold with long runners like OEM but bigger ports.

hoping the skunk2 manifold fits the bill

Yeah..I ended up buying the Full Blown manifold. My understanding is it's design is best for top end. As long as it makes power from 6k and above I'll be happy. 10whp and I'll be happy lol

Are you guys okay up there? I saw that the storm brushed the coast. Looks like Cape Canaveral and everything north up the coast got hit pretty hard.

As far as the manifold goes, I think the skunk2 intake manifold offers the best of both worlds. The plenum is big enough to accommodate the demand of the 2.4 liter unlike the stock intake manifold.

This is why I had excessive build me one. Very long 58mm ports.
