Yeah but theirs is massive, costs double what mine cost me to get made, and wouldn't put the throttle body exactly where we wanted it. I don't think the stock intake "sucks balls" at all. In fact most of the aftermarket ones made barely any difference from what I remember.
I made over 600 bhp on the stock intake with tiny turbos and had nice even EGTs across all cylinders. So that's why we just copied that design cos we know it worked well. If it ain't broke
EDIT: I should clarify the CJM intake is a full intake manifold, whereas ours is just the upper half (because that's where the TB is, and that's all we were doing this for - to move that). So its not really a fair comparison
