Question Anyone with Aftermarket Intake Manifold?

I'm not talking about just the Intake Horn but the complete Manifold.
How many of you guys are running a Custom Intake Manifold?
Please post pics, Thanks!

On a cummins you have to machine off the intake plenum to put a custom one on. However you can run what they call an intake plenum cover. A guy on CF builds them and they are called The Tunnel Ram. They are a good looking product and have great feedback for increased spool and lower egts.

Do you want something like this?

It will require a lot of modifications.

That's nice but alot more than I wanna mess with. Didn't know it was that big of a deal to do.
I know it's more of an Aftermarket Horn type of thing but how well does the Banks Twin Ram Intake work?

It should work very well. It will allow more equal air into #1, #5, and #6 cylinders.

i'm not sure if the actual banks twin ram will fit becuase of the injection line locations. if you look at it carefully, they made two completely different holes that may interfere with the crossover tubes. that's only reason i can think of for not offering for the 24v

but i did make my version of it. took it off for the winter because it was giving me cold start issues with heating only half the air.
