The "SS" what? And best for what? flowing the most air? fuel economy? Or best for your combination which were supposed to be psychic and guess that too?

I'm running Custom F.A.S.T. 90 with a Nick Williams 90mm TB
If you don't have Heads & Cam yet you won't really see as much gain in the 90mm
BUT,...once you start modding it's a BIG difference. Also, you can Port the F.A.S.T. Intake

But maybe he means the intake manifold.
He could have just told us and saved all the headaches.

That would have been far too easy, instead he's makeing us guess, now we can play a little game instead of actualy getting something done!

LOL my bad..... I ment which lid ids the best. I am thinking about getting a slp lid, but then I saw the g2 force and the volant w/ the 2 filters that look awsome.

Ok, that helps.

Basicly all lids are the same (dyno within 1-2hp of each other), the volant probibly flows alittle better, but wouldnt make any noticeable gains over a lid. On the other hand if you have a ram air hood it might make alittle more power and would look really sweet.

So really what you need to ask yourself is: Do you want to spend the extra $150 for a very slight increase in power and a cooler looking intake?
