All of GM's intake are some forum of plastic now, so why not some plumbing PVC. Looks like pure "Hot Rodding"

I giggled when I saw this. I build intakes on the side and for clearances and overall fitment I've had this done for me and shipped to me so I could replicate in aluminum

Properly welded (Glued) PVC would hold more boost than you would ever want to run. Many people put over 125psi to PVC all the time although I would never do it, I've seen what happens when it blows... Not pretty if you're near it.

You paint that wrinkle black and nobody would know it was pvc.

i wonder if they are the extensions used on p traps and such unless they heated them and formed them on a mold.

You can just heat them up and press anything tapered into the end. We used a ceramic pot to do it and make bellmouths for cold air piping.
