I just bought a Skunk2 intake manifold for my 96 GSR and got it installed at Hookups. The mechanic told me that I need to get a new type r intake for my car because my AEM CAI would not fit anymore. If this is true what intake should I get for a type r? Also is a short ram better or a CAI? Thanks for the help.

 

better? no, but save u a ton of space. I got the big slutty V2 and that thing just eats room, its doing good fo now, but minght have to face space problems in the future/ :rant:

but it does sound sweet. :goodjob:

 

An SRI with a Skunk2 manifold in a GS-R will give you superior gains over a CAI.

 

Thanks, I bought an AEM SRI. My car growls now.

 

wait...u have a gs-r, and u bought an intake manifold for it, shouldnt it fit like a gs-r manifold? i thot it was car specific? i dunno a whole lot about this stuff, thatz y im askin before i buy, i dont mean to sound like an ass or anything, im seriously wondering. what are u using for an intake right now then? or is ur car still at the shop? i have an AEM CAI on my stock manifold, and im planning on buying a new intake manifold. did u buy ur manifold that was made for a type r?

 

the manifold on the gsr is different from the manifold of other teg models cuz i think it fits in a funny way with the throttle body.

94-2000 has the same manifold for model specific integras

 

right yea i kno, i have a gs-r, and the stock manifold dips down behind the engine. on type r's, the manifold is more or less level with the engine, and i forget what itz like on ls's. but if u buy an aftermarket manifold that's made specifically for a gs-r, type-r, or ls, shouldnt it be shaped the same as a stock manifold for those cars?

 

the skunk2 manifold was modeled after the itr manifold. so it's basically the same thing as an itr i/m with a flange that fits the gsr head. hence the tb being in the same position as if it were an itr engine.

 

ah, gotcha thanx for 'splaining
