The Victor intake doesn't grossly sacrifice as much low-speed throttle response as many believe it does. On my previous 462 pump gas engine at 3500 rpm the Performer RPM intake made only 4 ft.lbs more torque than the Victor intake. And at their respective peak power rpm they were within 6 ft.lbs torque of each other, but as expected the Victors peak torque rpm was higher than the Performer RPM intake by 200-300 rpm depending on the dyno pull. And the Victor intake made peak power 200 rpm higher, with an additional 20 hp over the Performer RPM intake. But obviously much depends on the combination involved, mine was a 600 HP engine with the Victor intake.

The total plenum volume of the Victor intake is 946 cc's vs the Torker II with 1195 cc's. And the Victor intakes average runner length is only 0.75" longer than the Torker II intake.
