the trans is not in the equasion so to speak the intake needs to fit the engines rpm range....I would say the street heat will work good to help keep airspeed up

well what i was thinking since its an auto wouldnt it like shift it at like a lower RPM so you wouldn't really be taking advantage of the of the peak torque using the track heat....b.c i thought that the track heat doesnt make its power until alittle higher in the RPM when compared to the street heat

I would also say go with the track heat. Also, you might be able to pull of 19's with that setup but I wouldnt want to... go with the 24's.

With a track heat and full bolt ons (exhaust, maf, tb, etc.) he will be close to 300rwhp. No need for 30lb injectors. Hes barely exceeding the limits of the stockers let along 24's.
