Intake manifold is nothing more than a fancy set of tubes that
transport air and fuel into your heads. Cheaper to make 'em all as one
unit, but that's all it is - tubes.
Forget the word performance. The design of the stock tubes (intake)
might let air and gas swirl around in such a manner to have residual
fuel collect in the tubes.
You can get a more technical answer if you wish, but here's a simple
one.

So with this talk of nitrous, then manifolds, you all have pretty
much
lost me. The manifold is below the TB, right? (this uncertainty
should
tip you off to how little I know here) so what does the manifold do,
and
why exactly would a performance one be safer/better to have nitrous
with?
What I'm asking for is a long post from one of those guys who knows
everything, like Frank, half of which will be over my head anyway,
but
I'll get enough so I can get the gist and talk like I know something.
Later,
Robert
