Default help with intake choice

picking up an ls motor in next few weeks and will be boosting it right off the bat.

I want something that provides even distribution and lots of torque

do I go with a single plane intake and 4150 style throttle body,

or do I go with the stock style intake and a single blade throttle body

also, how much boost will the stock style intake hold?

please educate me.

You need to prove more detail on what you'll be working with and what you're looking for out of it.

This is the intake I am using on my Camaro, with an intake elbow. It just depends on what you're looking for. The GM LS6 intake is a very good intake manifold too, as in the FAST 92mm intake and the Edelbrock Pro-Flo XT. Bob
