^What he said

Short runners = higher end power gains
Long runners = lower end power gains

Them people have been making aftermarket intake manifolds sense before all your little ricer obx and skunk2 companies, they are way bigger than those companies, and they spend way more money on r & d than those other companies. Do you have any idea how hard it is to gain 8whp on a D series with a part that only takes 30 minutes to install?
I'm saying, I wouldn't get it if I didn't have a turbo. calm down

He was just trying to say that they are good for N/A too. 8whp is definitely a big gain on a D-series for a bolt on part.

I understand, I just don't think 8hp is enough to notice anything significant.

I just looked at the article, I said 8 originally, it's a 5.7HP increase
