when you see what RBtally's s13 does on the track with his manifold ... you won't have anymore question lol I'll be able to prove performance as well except my numbers won't be quite as high.

oh please spare me.an intake manifold is not going to give you retarded hp gains, its all about the setup and the tune.stop being such a fanboy, nates manifold works but im sure its not the end all be all.at the end of the day its all a matter of personal choice.

haha well one maybe you didn't notice the "LOL" in there. Two, I didn't say his intake was going to make him run 9's did I? but for those ppl wanting to know what it can support they will see when he get's his car running.

and you are STILL missing the point.the stock intake manifold CAN support stupid high power but is it efficient? no.the only reason you uprgrade to an after market intake mani is for one of 2 reasons:1) you have maxed out the stock intake manifold (well its now a restriction because of the hp level).2) or you are trying to make fmic plumbing easier on yourself (if in a s chassis).a better compareson would to have nate run his car on a dyno with the stock intake mani and then toss his on, that will give a true compareson as well as dyno proven gains.just cuz a car can run 9's doesnt mean that the intake manifold was the key to success..... again as i said earlier its all about the setup and tune.

I'm still lost to the fact that you think I said that somehow if you buy this intake you will have a 9 sec car.... ALL I'm saying is IF you are in the market for an intake manifold and you are considering going with RBtally's, you'll be able to see that it can support high hp. Not that hard to grasp man! I'm not telling everyone to go trash their stock mani because they suck.
