even in a situation like that i would keep the trickflow because it flows just as good as the ported gt40. what kind of powerband are you wanting? the street heat is idle to 5500 the track heat is 1500-6500

i would perfer the track heat over any of the above for a complete street car

Actually, that seems to be the common misconception. Aftermarket intakes will produce higher "peak" numbers. The GT40 will produce a more usable rpm range. A completely unported GT40 intake will generally produce more torque and power then a aftermarket intake till around 4800-5k rpm. From 5k+ after markets tend to have better numbers over a unported GT40. For a street car, GT40's are the perfect intake imo. Check out this page for a example. http://www.tmossporting.com/tabid/3451/Default.aspx
