wantone Posted July 24, 2014 Author Share Posted July 24, 2014 I really want a skunk intake they look sick and the improvement over stock is crazy its a proper intake impressed ?How much it cost you and where from. Best mod i have made so far I got mine from H-tune - http://h-tune.co.uk/skunk2-pro-series-intake-manifold-honda-b-series-b18c4.html Its pretty reasonable at first glance but then you have to add throttle body, gaskets, throttle cable, throttle bracket, bigger intake, P28 + remap, Injector seals and then add labour on top if your not fitting it yourself... Its a slippery slope, worth it though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wantone Posted August 3, 2014 Author Share Posted August 3, 2014 I found out another good thing about about this skunk2 intake manifold... You can change your oil filter from the top with ease! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
