By the way:
I'd like to clear up a misunderstanding. Our explanation of why we chose to go with a new intake manifold only relates to OUR supercharger system. I was trying to explain that we couldn't simply run a Y-pipe design off the back of the blower. Also, because we ran the air-water intercooler system we had to think creatively about getting the intercooler inside the manifold. Which again, is the #1 reason why we rebuilt the manifold. We wanted to get the intercooler inside the manifold.
GTM mounted their supercharger on the bottom of the engine and utilize a front mount air to air intercooler system so they were able to retain the factory intake manifold. We chose to mount our supercharger inside the engine bay and go with an air to water intercooler system.

Reason: bold and caps lock "our"
