That's a good theory. The problem is reality.
Every time someone comes up with a new intake manifold design, it's a big hype fest until the production and then suddenly silence. Because they dyno it with zero gains or more often a loss in power. $1000-2000 for that is a tough swallow compared to the inexpensive plastic stock manifold.
