Default C&L Upper intake manifold

C&L's main webpage says HP numbers will be coming out tomorrow, with pricing soon to follow. Since FAST seems to have thrown in the towel, this might be a good option for N/A guys looking for a few extra ponies. My personal prediction is that it won't yield much more (if any) HP than delete plates. Hope I'm wrong, because it sure is pretty:

Their info leads me to believe that they don't expect anything earth shattering either. But manufacturers-will-be-manufacturers and it won't surprise me to see them boast. Even if they DO boast some respectable bang-for-the-buck, I don't think I'd be the guinea pig until I saw some 3rd-party dyno results. However, I'll try to be optimistic about their results. And even if they get 1 data set that shows something to brag about, it might only occur with a certain lineup of the stars and sunspot activity K value, if you catch my drift.

Don't be so optimistic Nuke ;-). I knew they sent them out for testing back on the 7th. Can't wait to see the numbers. Heard anything regarding pricing yet?

This may not gain much for the N/A guys if the lower intake is still the most restrictive part. However, the centri guys should definately look into these since the intake manifold is probably the most restrictive part in their intake.

I thought they were going to release the testing data yesterday?? If anyone sees that they do, please post here letting us know. I can't wait to see them.
