Re: Uber modified stock evo intake manifold vs DI SMIM

I like the fact that it's backed by BR, who does real world testing then puts the best manifold on his personal car.

Or just has someone make something, mark it up 400%, then tell the whole world it's born of years of development and everybody else's similar product is utter garbage. It's always a money thing these days.

I also disagree with the pricing since it's a stock core to begin with and we are paying 1000+ for labor and the machine work. Regardless I don't know too much about BR, except for his test's on evom, which I assumed were fair.
This manifold hasn't been tested against the HKS with a 3" TB.
BR hasn't taken the HKS off his drag car either, interesting...
