Edelbrock. I have been running edelbrock for years. Be it on my honda or my Jeep or my chevy trucks Ive had over the years. Stick with what works is what Ive always said. Good luck

Depends I hear skunk2 was better for n/a setups. However I haven't heard much about edelbrock's intake manifolds for hondas. Do you have the y8 manifold on there now?

The other reason I recommended Edelbrock is they back up their name. I got a shity carb once for my Jeep and they replaced it no questions asked. And my buddy is running the victor on his 90 rex and it hauls ass and it really sounds good with the addition of the Edelbrock intake mani.

Edelbrock IMs are geared more towards forced induction with their runner design. The S2 IM is based off of the Y8.

One study at UCLA indicated that up to 93 percent of communication effectiveness is determined by nonverbal cues. Another study indicated that the impact of a performance was determined 7 percent by the words used, 38 percent by voice quality, and 55 percent by the nonverbal communication.

I have heard the y8 mani is regarded as the itr manifold of the d-series motors..so you could get yours port matched and be fine...unless you go forced induction in which case go with edelbrock like Blanco said. But like I said....I have heard...I have the d16y8 in my car as well but I didn't get the manifold and I am runnin the y7 manifold still so I don't know first hand

...and just like Skunk2's B-Series IM is an improved version of the ITR IM, the D-Series IM is an improved version of the Y8 IM.

Thumbs up
stick with the y8 and do a bore on the throttle body base match port would be best. Y8 manifold is like the type-R of SOHC manifolds. Has a large plenum and has good mid range power gains.
