Correct. The Accel Super Ram is the only smog-legal aftermarket intake. It consists of an Edelbrock base and a specific set of runners mated to a large plenum. You could also get an Edelbrock base and a set of AS&M semi-siamese runners and reuse your stock plenum.

SLP runners are the smallest, but you can port them bigger and better. The SuperRam is the best smog-legal intake out there. The others are just bigger diameter runners but the same length. Its the length that limits the horsepower.
