You will be waiting forever for a friendly reply here. lol but here's the best reply i can give you. Trickflow track heat intake manifolds seem to do well with the higher ported heads. Edelbrock intake manifolds for our cars seem to do better in my opinion. Its shown like 30rwhp on an N/A car over the stock intake manifold so id look into that. But you also need an adapter plate for them to work with the stock plenum and throttle body. And you could look into edelbrocks plenums and tb's to go with it cus they are a bit larger than our usual plenums and throttle bodies.

The edelbrock or the track heat is your best bet. Normally when people ask these questions its for a manifold on a bolt on gt w/o cams and heads. In your application, depending on how aggressive the cams are, you will probably see some decent net gains.

I never tried TF intakes, but from what I seen here some of the FI guys are using it, and they are putting down some good numbers.

May be mustangman281 could shed some light on them, i think he got it on his ride.
