You can change the intake independently of the manifold, they're two completely different parts.

Intake manifold - $2-300 for ~10hp
Tune $5-800 for ~15hp
Combination $7-1000 for ~45hp.

I got the simon tool, which made my tune $800, but I got lucky with an intake manifold for $200. Not bad at all.
Wow, Thanks guys, I hadn't realized this could be preformed at such a relatively low cost.

I am assuming labor is going to be more expensive than the actual parts themselves.
Anyone know of a reputable shop/ place in SE Michigan to preform this sort of work?
