Default Cobra intake manifold part 2

Ok I know I already posted about this but my friend was telling me that there is this one brand that makes a intake manifold for the 5.0 thats suspposed to be better then the cobra intake manifold. He said that the cobra one would give about 60 hp but theres another brand out there that would give me 80hp anyone know what hes talking about by any chance? [>:]

edlbrock? trick flow? ...they both make better numbers than the cobra, they're are other brands too that make better intakes. the cobra is probably the one furthest on the list, have the lower ported though and they're probably all the same or almost.

Has to be. THere is no way an intake is adding anywhere near that kind of power unless there is a blower attached to it. [8D]

Yea, thats impossible. Ive heard of 35-40hp from an already heavily modded motor. But thats about as far as they will go.
