Default Best IM for GSR?

I am looking to upgrade the IM on my GSR and I need to know what is the best all around. I am not looking to lose much low end power but something that helps in the mid range is what I'm looking for.

What should I get? Blox? Skunk2? Edelbrock profomer X?

Thanks
Stephen

Once I put in CTR cams it was a ton nicer.

This is just me and my half *** tuning, I still think money is better spent else where at this time.

probably should shoose some cams first, but look into the aebs unit. thats where my research took me. Its nice havaing runners that are designed to match the gsr head and not the itr/b16.

How is that working out for you?

Did you notice any losses? And where did you notice the greatest gains from this setup?

If you want more peak power, go with a Skunk2/Blox/AEBS ITR style intake manifold. Below 6,000 rpm the GSR IM with working butterflies is better.
