not worth the money. Get a OEM replacement. The typhoon one is the only one worth buying, but even that is hard to justify for gains vs. cost.

You DO NOT need an aftermarket lower intake. If your tuner is telling u this then get a new tuner...if ur around here i can recommend 2 places to take it. The stock lower is fine untill atleast 360rw na and 600ish with fi. If u want to waste 700bucks feel free...but i dont see it as a need at all.

trickflow...only if ur spinning it to 7k
Edelbrock looses a little low end but does well...you need new rails and either an adapter plate or the sheetmetal plenum made for them
Pp is OK
Hardballer isnt a bad choice...but its basically a metal stock one
P51 is outa ur league

Stay with the stock intake...get injectors and a REAL dyno tune. I have no clue what ur suspension mods are...but building the suspension some will give u better gains then an intake

Or ****...spend the 700 on a good nitrous set up

Right, like we said, you don't need one yet. Get a new tuner.
