the stock intake manifold is a piece of crap.. the stock head, the short turn radius before the valve seat sucks.. and really needs to be welded up and reshaped..
it's cheaper to go turbo.. MUCH cheaper

not to interject, but since the stock intake manifold isn't that great, do you know of anyone that manufactures an upgrade? I know that DT could probably add to this one. And what makes a good intake manifold design [just a basic idea]?
I have an OBX on my car, and it helped a little. I know Venom makes one, supposedly it's good for 20HP. I haven't tried it. As for the design, the easier the travel for the air the better the design. As for the actual engineering stuff, um, I'm out.

Mod List. Um WAY too many to fit on here. But the engine can handle about 800HP
Well, all I know is it looks a hell of a lot better than the intakes on the old boosted mopars Actually the entire top end looks a whole lot better lol. I guess that why I'm expecting more of it.
So, what if I used ITB's? Anyone done that on these yet?
Not that I've ever heard of. It would take some serious customizing to do it. And a lot of cash. If you do it, good luck and document the progress REALLY well.

I saw somebody's pic on here of an Ebay header that the collector separated from the tubes after like 1 year or something, don't want to buy the same thing
That was me. Stick with DC or Skunk2. TRUST ME. The price may not be as attractive, but the results will be alot better. Talk to Nykon about prices. Btw, they CAN be welded back together sucessfully.
