Default best intake manifold for a built gsr engine

My setup is 2.0l gsr engine with a gt40 turbo it has ramhorn turbo manifold I'm shotting for around 700hp and i'm trying to decide wich intake manifold would give me more horsepower either edelbrock or golden eagle and also i'm using a 75 mm throttle body.

A.I.R. would be the best if you can find/afford one. Of the two choices listed, it seems the Edelbrock is the more popular of the two; however, i'm running an HP Racing IM which is the same as the GE IM.

The edelbrock is real popular. The ge's make good power too.

The one benefit i can see of the GE is that the Plenum is larger than that of the Edelbrock, but again, flow plays a role as well as does the heat soaking ability of the material....

Care to elaborate...this does us NOTHING without some form of explanation. I mean, i'm all for ignorant decisions and all, but this IS a discussion...

You can't go wrong with any of the manifolds above, but for money i think the edelbrock is the best im out there and its proven to work just my o2!

I still use the Venom manifolds. It works awesome for us. Its an older manifold, but I have no intentions of changing it.

my endyne/AIR doesnt seem to get hot for some reason

i was not impressed by the edelbrock piece, just wasnt very happy with it. wasnt impressed by the quality of the unit i had or the leaks i had from it.

I think i would have been happier with the skunk2 or a custom job from a fabricator

You guys gotta see the new Magnus Motorsports manifold for Hondas. Apparently Central Florida Turbos made another 43 HP over the JG intake on their turbo eg.

I wonder why that is If it wasn't super expensive, i think all FI intake manifolds shoule be made of carbon fiber...IATs would stay so much lower with a non-metal IM.

Another manifold to check is the SLS intake manifold...its a pretty new one to the market, but seems promising.
