Anyone have a custom intake manifold?

Hello, I'm just wondering if anyone out there has built a custom intake manifold (or had one built). I am wanting to build one and the way I see it, all I would need to do is cut a new plate to mount to the head, cut the four intake runners, and ahollow out a block of aluminum and cut out the spot where the TB mounts. Am I right, or is there much more to it? I want to leave the throttle body in the same place but I think if I build something bigger than stock with more flow, I am sure I can see a noticeable gain.

Anyone have any info or feedback? I would really like to hear from people who have researched this.
