Default Intake Manifold for low and mid range?

Im looking for an IM for a GSR but i noticed that the Skunk2 etc all dont start making power till like 7k? Is there another IM out there that I dont know about that is good for low-midrange?

an intake manifold with short fat runners and a large plenum (victor X) will be more suited for higher rpms/boost.
but one with longer fat runners will be more suited for low and midrange power.

for low end and midrange the stock manifold is at its best.
