Turtles were for the the kegger maniold. Reducing the plenum size, and supposedly boosting low-end power...... you won't find one for the M1, as the plenum on it is friggin' tiny.

Which spending $600 or so will do nothing except eliminate the stock plate and lose bottom end.

Exactly. Besides, you'll want an SCT or at least a SC tuner (if you just go plate). So add that on top of the ridiculous 600 for the intake. Then add in other mods to take full advantage of the Hughes. Depends on what end you like power more obviously. And just so you know, some people will say they lost no bottom and actually gained. That's because the plenum was blown to begin with.

I already have and installed the SCT tunner, I replaced my plenum gasket last year with the bet quality gasket I could find because I was unemployed and couldn't afford a $100 piece of alumium or $500 intake
