How'd you blow up the intake?

and you are right that the 2014-2015 intakes aren't plastic anymore. Are they the same as the LLT? I haven't seen many so hard for me to remember off hand. I wonder what benefits they might have vs our plastic ones besides the cosmetics.

The valve covers were switched to aluminum, not the intake manifold.
