Same at ATR IM, need tuning to get the benefits.

It's a straight forward swap, but it will only produce gains after a tune, otherwise you will see a loss in torque. All depends on your mods as to how much gain you'll see as well. With basic breathing mods members have seen a good 20+bhp after a tune.

my build was this, type s intake, 62mm TB, ATR cams, MUgen manifold & down pipe with a greddy cat back and a decat.

After tuning with s300 & PAW magic it got 228bhp up from 185bhp

EDIT: By this I mean the ATR IM which is basically the same thing as the skunk one

oh be prepared to lose the ATTS if your tuning with a different ecu

dastek unichip to the rescue. tune and keep ATTS.

i think rocket just has the engine though? transplant wasn't it? in which case the sky is the limit.

I've read on the forums in the US that the ATR and Euro-R intake manifold out performs the Skunk2 one by a small margin...
