Maybe. They could be redesigning it. It doesnt make the most power for a manifold however. When my friend that was using it in USTCC wrecked his car and had to rebuild part of it, we took the manifold and tested on a few other highly modified B series motors. An employee of mine, his 2.065cc B series motor was making 265whp give or take with simple shelf parts and major head work. he had a Edelbrock B16 intake manifold that I cut open and he spend hours porting it out and smoothing it for best flow and transition from the plenum to the runners. Without any cam gear tuning or header tuning he made the 265whp at 8900rpm. weeks later we had the AIR intake in our hands. he massaged the port entry into the head a little and dyno'd and lost almost 10whp at 9000rpm. The power up to about 8000 was nearly the same. he gained a bit from 4500-5500rpm though.
I do think for a smaller engine, not as highly modified that the AIR intake is much better than just about anything else I have seen for a B series though.
