QFFT! I would pay out the wazoo if we could get an intake manifold that looks like that, whether or not it made gains. That thing is artwork.

^Looks awesome. I wouldn't buy one if there isn't a benefit in performance though.

I heard somewhere, not to sure how acurate it is but, the GTR manifold bolts up to the HR motor...if its true or not im sure that it might be close but need adjusting...would like to see the measurements of the gtr manifold and ours.

I think the black one would look better if it had the look of 2 kinetix Velocity manifolds instead of those horrible canisters

Looks over function? I don't take my car to meets nor do I pop the hood often to show people what the difference is between a DE and an HR, though I have to explain frequently. None the less, if there was much room for improvement on the oem, i'm sure the big dogs would have addressed it already. The HR is a beast hands down and I'm sure a large part of that comes from the newly designed, oem intake manifold that is equipped from factory.

Or you could spend zero dollars and put the engine cover back on...

Waffle is good for heat dissipation.

Or if its really a stretch there are a couple other shops that specialize in other cars, they could be trying to move over...
