FAST™ engineers teamed up with airflow specialists at RHS™ to develop a polymer intake manifold for rectangular port GM L92/LS3 engines. Testing on a stock LS3 engine with a Big Mouth 102mm Throttle Body™ produced gains of 14+ horsepower and 11+ ft/lbs of torque at the flywheel over the stock intake. The LSXR™ 102mm Intake Manifold features a three-piece modular design that allows easy disassembly and porting. Extensive testing led to a runner design that is longer and less restrictive and gives the user the ability to remove individual runners from the manifold for modification.

why so?
I say that's a pretty good gain. Remember, they're not including numbers with a performance cold air intake. Those numbers are just manifold and throttle body.
You need to look at what numbers you will get when combined with other components.
