N/A Intake manifold

[Laztug]

I am looking into picking up an intake manifold for my 5.0.
I have a few in mind, and few I want to know nothing about. *cough* holly edelbrock*

MMR road runner fits under factory hood, and has the ability to easily grow with the motor. MMR claims "Short runner boosts peak performance over factory and Boss Manifolds." I would like to see an overlay of how much power we lose / gain over the boss manifold. MMR also includes a set of Billet -8AN Fuel Rails with their manifold.

GT350 intake is a very well rounded IM. Easily fits under factory hood, looks oem, and is easily paired with an inexpensive gt350 TB. But is priced very close the the MMR road runner at a little over 1000.

Cobra Jet IM has been a proven powerhouse in N/A motors. Unfortunately it does not like FI. I have seen people have problems getting the oval couplers to hold boost. It is also pretty pricey at $800. Paired with $600 TB's this combo is well into the mmr price range.
It also does not fit under the factory hood without modification.

Boss IM is very budget friendly route at around 500 bucks. Has anyone paired this with a GT350 TB?
Boss IM also has problems getting under the stock hood without modification.

Here they are is a comparison of a factory gt manifold , GT350 im and a CJ im.

So did you have a specific question, or just looking for any feedback?

I think the Edelbrock looks promising, the Holley looks nice to.

I don't believe the MMR will fit under the 15+ stock hood. Maybe I'm wrong but I thought it was every bit as tall as the Boss or CJ. Beef can probably answer/confirm that.

Are you looking for an IM for a bolt-on car or a full all out NA build?

I am over the "teasers" that love to follow the holly and edelbrock manifolds. I really want nothing to do with them.

IIRC I read MMR claims their road runner intake will clear 2015+ factory hoods.

I am interested in dyno sheets of hp/tq loss/gains of a road runner IM compared to boss , CJ, gt350 intake manifolds in bolt on applications.
Seems like I only see a road runner intakes if it's being force fed by monster FI.

My car is not an all out build. I have arh orx 1 7/8 headers, steeda cai. lu47s FF tune on the way. I also am looking into a 5c to be installed together with the new ff tune and LU47s.

I can't comment on any of the other intakes but I gained .3 tenths and 3.5 mph with the GT350 intake manifold

0.3 tenths = 3 thousandths. I think you mean 3 tenths.

0.3 tenths = 3 thousandths. I think you mean 3 tenths.

I know but I put the 0. Because it makes it easier for someone to understand if they can't figure out where the tenths place is. So I put the 0.3

How do you like how it rides? Also who did you go with your tune?

I love my boss. Waiting to see someone pair it with a 350tb and see how it does.

It rides perfectly and Lund did my tune
