Are they any good? To be honest my guess, Honda's being so tempremental with mods and something from E-bay with no brand leads me to believe these will probably drop power?
Anyone know for sure?

stick with a proven product. CTR manifolds are good for a gain, but have been known to lose power on standard engines. I've heard good things about skunk 2 manifolds aswell.

There are other brands that have proven gains aswell. Do some research

That is an AEBS manifold and they are a very good manifold. The info that EGB16A has given you is correct.Do a search there are many manifolds around these days for the B16-18 series engines.

How come they don't advertise the brand??
Would this net any gains on a B16A with CTR extractors, high flow cat, full exhaust, pod filter and CAI?
Would a larger throttle body be a must with this manifold too?

it will gain power, the right cams will help alot too. I'd say a larger throttle body is an advantage, but not detrimental. I'd get cams 1st then worry about a larger throttle body.

again, thats my 2c :D
