Default Ever seen these intake manifolds...

What do you know about these intakes? I'm just now seeing them:


Carbon XR LS7 Intake Manifold. Looks like Lingenfelter did some testing on it:

Also this Champion Intake and TB:


I'm wondering why I don't see more people using these. Seems like most have ported Fast 102's like me. Are these better for bigger cube motors and is it just up top power without losing power down low and in the mid range?

Believe that's the intake used on the Falcon F7. Don't think it will fit under the stock vette hood.

Yep, I know these, those are a piece of art! They are from Performance Design and designed by Caleb Newman, who formerly worked for Katech Performance.
Unfortunately they don't fit under the hood of a Corvette, I inquired Caleb about that. And yes, they are on the Falcon F7. Skip to 0:55 in the video clip.

Not doing that. What about the Champion Intake? It has what looks like a stock hood and its pretty too.....
