intake manifold

I have read a couple of articles on an intake manifold that smoothes out the intake airflow in the last couple of months, now that I have a couple of extra dollars I was thinking of getting one. Now I cant find the articles for the manufacturers name. Does anyone know what I am talking about here?

Also has anyone gotten or used one? anything really noticable to report? Ive got an 04 with a gibson exhaust as the only mod, and was thinking of this inlet to complement the exhaust.

TIA Hank

I think you're referring to intake tubes, not manifolds. search on accufab or accufabracing to find their website.

I would go with the banks one personally.Yes it makes a big difference but you need the exhaust and cold air intake to make a huge difference.

I could be wrong, but I don't think the Banks elbow can be used without purchasing the intercooler kit, since the elbow was designed for the .5 inch larger CAC tubes, boots, and clamps.

I Don't Think That You Can Get Jus T The Intake Elbow From Banks? I Just Installed The Accufab Intake Ploshed, I Couldnt Resist, Seems To Lower The Egt's A Little Just Put It On Haven't Had A Chance To To W With It Or Really Put It Through The Paces With The Extreme Tune, Would Like To Know If U Can Get Just The Banks Elbow An D Tubes Too?
By The Way You Will Not Notice Any Horsepower Or Torque Difference With The Accufab

No you would be correct. the kit is like 400 or so but deff worth it.
