I cant decide what intake to get......I am unhappy with the quality of my current one and am looking for another to work with my current combo in my sig. Cams power band is 2500-6000 on steeda site, heads are stage 2 ported. Car is just a weekend driver/toy will probably never see a strip just like to drive it hard on the weekends. Looking for a good intake that will work good on the street but not waist the potential of the combo. Also supercharger is in the future but may just be best to adress that when it happens.

Thanks!!

If you are going forced induction I would lean towards a box style intake since its a toy. If you want to maintain streetability edelbrock performer II or trickflow track heat.

Is the RPM 2 really lacking on a NA set up? I was wondering if it would be to much of a dog down low for just cruising around town when not into the go peddle.

Holley Systemax gest my vote as well, it will more then feed the ported Ebrocks and gives you room to grow in the future. The runner length is good for the rpm range you will actually make power.
