I'm happy with mine (victor-x) :blue: The low end sucks, but you start boosting....and teehee.

I'd stick with Skunk2 unless you are upping your redline with some aggressive cams (Skunk2 2+, Jun3, Toda B, C), because the victor x really only makes power above 7000 RPMs.

It would be great for turbo or drag, but forget about it on an autox car.

I wouldn't put the Victor x on a street car unless it was turbo. Don't ignore the Skunk2 as just a ITR manifold, it shows some nice gains over OE. It is only based on the ITR manifold.
