BBk is a good company i like them, but its just too much money. Plus i think there is a limited supply but im not sure.

Yeah i was told by the machine shop that both of these intakes are pretty good for boost, because of the short runner. I plan to supercharge in the future. I wanted to get the trickflow kit but they said that minifold isnt good for a supercharger cause of the long runner..better for all motor

BBK comes with fuel rails, so if you need some its a good deal.

I would probably go with the Holley. Quick question for me though - I have a '94 - does Holley make an intake adapter that fits my car? I know Trick Flow does and the GT40 comes with one too, but I want a Holley.

Mustangs and super fords just tested a whole bunch of intakes on a built motor and tfs track heat cam with 1 or 2 peak horse power of both of those intakes and out performed them in torque. And its a $100 cheaper?

in 5.0 mustang and super fords they always put the holley systemax II on all their cars. I remember reading how they stated it was all they use. Also I heard a lot of good things about holley.

i have read alot of articles and old forums chats, and i have been around a bunch of mustang pros...and i have only ever heard good things about the holley systemax intake...the only bad thing i have ever heard about the intake is the damn price...every one says for a super charger intake it is the best out there...just my .02 on what i have heard...good luck on your choice..
