In terms of breathing mods, cams, and then N/A Skunk2 or ATR (same as Euro-R) intakes are the best for buck.

In terms of other brands, most are for big builds, most turbocharged. Venom, Golden Eagle, RBC, etc. If you're feeling very flush google Fiber Tuned H22 intake manifold.

Haha, yeah the first price I saw for a Fiber-tuned inlet was $1650 'introductory price'!

So I'm probably not feeling that flush. :lol:

I'll look into the others you mentioned.. :roll:

So the Venom IM looks pretty sick at $599.95

Does anyone think this would be better than the Skunk2?

That kit looks pretty good actually Iain - and at a fair price too. 8-)

Oh, didn't read anything in the description that said one way or the other, but nevermind. Good to know anyway. ;)

You got any alternatives to the S2 for na builds?

Ok, and what about cams?

Would the general consensus be;

Skunk2 Pro Series Intake Manifold
Skunk2 Pro Series 68mm Throttle Body
Skunk2 Pro Series Cams (Stage 1,2, or 3 though?)

Or ATR cams?
