Default LS2 manifold vs LSX manifold

I did a search and didnt exactly get the results I was looking for. I was wondering, what would turn better results on my LS1, a ls2 manifold or a lsx 78mm/90mm I was just wondering cause I have read/over heard some conversation that people are putting on the ls2 instead of the lsx manifolds. help a brother out!

PS-with a matching TB of course.

LSX 90 actually makes power. Go with that and the Nick Williams 90mm throttle body.

Even on LS2s, the LSX90 adds 10-15rwhp. So, that should be enough proof there.

hot rod did a dyno test 2 months ago to answer this question and the ls2 made only slightly more than the ls1 and less than an ls6--so i think it would be safe to say the lsx is a better choice. that motor had a camshaft though.
