well, its a sheetmetal intake, what do you expect? Its not some cheap ebay cold air tornado electric horsepower thingy..... Its a high quality, highly engineered, purpose built intake.

If it is so good, why are there no back to back documented comparisons showing the gains and increases you get for $3000??

I know of back-to-back testing on a 427 with some minor gains, but I would want to know what rpm range and engine size the Billet Bank was designed for regarding runner size and length. I don't have all the engine specs, so, I won't speculate, but there might be a "sweet spot" that the intake will show significant gains, yet, with another combo, it may hurt it and/or be equal to say a stock or ported OEM LS7 intake.

Weve done some back to back stuff on the BB vs a few other intakes, not too many people are willing to spend that kind of $$$ and effort though to tell other people how to make a combo work, unfortunately.
The intake does have its place, but definitely not for everyone though, I wouldnt put it on a cam only car
Although on a cam only car it only lost about 5 ft lbs of torque vs a FAST 90, which Im sure alot of people would be surprised to see, I sure was
