Default is it worth it

Does any one know what the prices on an ITB set up for my gsr swap, what are the pros and cons,and will it go good with a stock itr build? I want to build my motor and keep it as stock as possible as far as internals, i already have itr cams and tht made a difference, not like 100 whp diff but the vtec cranks in harder, any suggestions advise.
thanks fellow ricers

Not worth it on a street motor. The new Edelbrock performer X manifold is working out really well for alot of people and they run in the $300 range.

you can make your own or i have seen them go anywhere from 300 to 600 but again its not good for a street setup.

A well designed intake manifold, not cheap but cheaper than itb's, will outperform itb's powerband, peak power, drivability, idle, etc.

he said it cost that much to make your own

on a stock motor you will make no power....you need big cams and high comp to get good numbers with ITB'S
