I'm sorry to be the one to ask this, but what is it?

This doesn't go under the plenum cover does it? I thought that those parts were supposed to be contoured.

Hey Rob.. help me out here!! Those look just like the velocity stcks I used to see on the old Weber carbs.. In m minds eye I recall the M5's as being a lot more curved.. no?

So despite them looking really good.. what is the difference?

Those are aftermarket veloccity stacks that go under the plenum cover. I believe RMS uses the same ones on their supercharger upgrade.

Do they make the engine sound more "throaty"?

How do they affect performance??
