Hence.. I have been told that:
The venom inlet manifold will make most power between 6000-8000 rpm
The v2 will make most power between 3000-4000 rpm
Is this true?
I have also been advised that for top end power you would be looking at :
a 4 to 1 exhaust manfold
cold air intake
inlet manifold with short fatter runners (skunk2 ect)
for midrange power you would be looking at :
a 4-2- 1 exhaust manfold
short ram intake
inlet manifold with longer runners (ported stock manifold)
If this is true which would be more suited to VTEC?
Many thanks.
the venom manifold is designed to work with boosted motors. If you want to make power with an intake manifold, get a Euro R and have it ported and port matched to the head and throttle body. Run a 68-70mm TB and have that portmatched to the intake manifold. Then call it a day cuz thats one hell of a setup without spending 1000's on custom manifolds or ITB's.
