thanks for the input. i mean it sounds like their almost the same, i mean they have their trade-offs, but Blox is so much cheaper. I don't mind shelling out the extra $$ but if they both yield similar results, I have no prob with Blox.

You might want to make a consideration. The Skunk2 IM is carb legal. Which unfortunately for you just like me we live in cali and emissions are a B. I really don't know if blox is carb so im sorry if im wrong but I do know that Skunk2 is. And I have it on my D15B vtec engine also. Just picture it big ass IM with a PWD:JDM whale penis and BAM you got a shit load of air in yo engine

haha theres nothing carb legal about my car, so im not too worried about my IM haha, i have a somewhat "homemade" style CAI that's actually pretty legit but not carb legal.

-Bolt ons yield almost zero power gains on a D-Series motor when untuned.
-This goes for intake IM, Cat back exhaust, Header etc.
-Same is true for the B-Series.
-These bolt on parts are more tuning tools than performance modifications.
-They allow for more Hp to be found but it doesn't add power outright.

side note: the K-series motors are revered for actually responding to simple mods on the stock tune.

Quality is my priority when building cars, so my Vote (between the two) goes to the Skunk.

Yeah, those Pro series cam's suck

numbers dont lie, but since this is a tech forum numbers would be nice to back that up with, im not talking about b or k series, but a direct comparison between the two, because that's what im really interested in.
i wasn't really asking if i should get an IM or not i was just seeing what everyone had to say, so thank you for the input, and i will be getting my car tuned soon but im not gonna waste my $$ and get my car tuned after every mod.

No no no. Thats what I was saying. Just to clarify, D and B series motors dont gain power from basic bolt ons whatsoever, so choosing a part should be based on quality and future plans, not "promised" performance. The K-series however is known for its affinity for bolt ons, different parts produce different results in K-series. So when purchasing a bolt on for a K take into account power produced, quality AND future plans.

So for the OP, Buy the better part. Nether will net you any sort of performance gain. In fact you may indeed LOOSE power or Torque in parts of your power curve due to the longer runners and larger plenum. They are simply tuning tools, and part of a greater goal, they are not designed to increase performance by themselves. Anyone who tells you otherwise is trying to make some money from you...fact.

I dont wanna seem like an ass here its just the truth in tuning. Hope this helps mitigate some confusion. Cheers!

/sigh

That is a bold-faced lie.

You can easily make 180 whp on a b series with stock internals.

I've also seen Ds put down 115-120 with bolt ons and tuning.

true but when we are talking performance gains we are talking 250-275whp.... rivaling stock turbod b's

Please read what I said again. And feel free to prove me wrong.

thanks guys im gonna get the blox and ill post pics and my insight.
