Default What Intake For My 90 Mustang?

What is going to be the best intake for me to run on my 90 Foxbody?

Stock 302 Shortblock
Trick Flow Twisted Wedge 170 Heads
Vortech V1 S-Trim Supercharger. I'm only going to run 10-11 pounds for now.
373 Gears
The car is going to be a street strip car. More street than strip.

edelbrock makes some nice intakes, if your on a budget professional products have been making some decent intakes as well, a little bit cheaper and give out decent numbers! Also Holley intakes are nice!

How well does the Trick Flow Street Heat work? I have a chance to get one cheap. Which is better the Street Heat or Holley Systemax?

professional products makes a really nice intake if your on a budget. if your not on a budget, holley makes a nice intake. edlebrock makes an intake similar to the EFI spyder intake (the one i have in my sig) that is very good for boosted applications.
