It's neat, but completely pointless. 1 plenum & throttle body would probably make more power and cost a lot less.

It sure does look killer though.

I dont see why one would flow more, you can double your CFM and fuel delivery that way it looks... BUT. I think its over kill, you can only use so much.

it does look sweet though

After all the money he spent on the custom intake, you think he could spring for a few dollars more and build a custom air intake for that beast! $30,000 motor with $50 of cone air filters.
But it does look awesome. I did like GM's 4th gen ZL1 intake better.
