Default C&L intake manifold

I just read the article in muscle mustang and fast fords mag and wanted to know if anyone has seen or know somebody with this done. It gained 27 Hp to a 07 gt (stock). Doesnt seem hard to install either. But it is 800 bucks.

I asked Doug at Bama about this and he told me that I would gain around 10-12 RWHP since I already have the delete plates. He said that the intake is good to install either with a turbo or along with cams.

There are two installs of the C&L manifold, one by germansheppard on Modded Mustang forum and Boss281 on s197 forum that showed no increase in rwhp after the installation. Has anyone else installed the manifold yet?

I've been saving change for this intake exclusively because I have no delete plates and plan on a Vortech S/C. I'm going really have to weigh the cost/performance factor.

funny thing.. you never hear how you will also need higher output injectors @ 340whp.

I didn't think you could buy the C&L Intake Manifold yet??? Where can you get it?

I also talked to someone here locally in the KC area who said he has a Trickflow Intake Manifold. I haven't seen this anywhere to purchase either!
