Default Best intake for boosted 402

Configuring this setup. Just regrettably sold my Mamo 90m. I'm looking for a good set up for a boosted 402 lq9, AFR 225 setup. Currently have a LS6 intake/throttle body. Not attached to it. Still deciding on the setup, motor is with Billy Briggs, waiting for assessment, thinking about Morel lifters for as many rpms I can get from a hydraulic setup. Cam is a Kurt Urban turbo cam. Just undecided about single, or dual.

Not against or for the LS6 intake, as it appears to have worked for others in the 1000 rwhp+ range. Just want something that works without needing to switch to something else on down the rd. Vic Jr? Super Vic Jr? What elbow.

Car will be street driven, not really worried about loosing TQ down low, actually would be a blessing as it will be a handful. Midrange and high are good for me. Auto T400, if that means anything.

Not sure exactly how high you want to turn it but, a ls6 will usually pull hard to 7k on a turbo app. A couple friends of mine have run a edelbrock proflo turning nearly 8k with good success.

I was hoping to avoid any more cutting. Not ruling it out. But if the ls6 works to 7200 I think I could deal with that.
