Need second opinion for next mod
Hey guys. Im kinda having trouble choosing what to do to my 99 si next. read my profile for my mods and tell me what you think i should do. i was kinda leaning toward an intake manifold (either skunk2 or edelbrock) but im not sure what to get. which one is the better of the two? also keep in mind im on a budget so no saying turbos even though i already know i want one. thanks guys.

if you are going turbo then dont waste your money on anything else for the time being. you already have to remove your CAI and exhaust and buying headers will just be a waste of even more money if you go turbo.

If you're going to stay N/A then get a header for sure. It's a nice performance gain. As for the intake manifolds, they are a bit of a pain to install. I have a Skunk2. Looks clean in the engine bay and screams on VTEC. Very impressed.
