Default S/C Intake?

Working on gathering parts for my buddy's '00 SS. Its an A4 car, currently running about 5 psi on a vortech supercharger on an internally stock motor/stock intake/stock TB. The car has full bolt ons/exhaust, dyno tuned by speed inc and made 400rwhp.

Eventually, the car will see 15-20psi on a stroker motor, on a mission for single digits.

What were' trying to do:

Were trying to pick out a combo for the intake manifold/throttle body that will both:
A). Yield some good gains for the setup now and
B). Still be able to be used on the built motor and 15-20psi down the road

Also, were trying to stay away from a single plane intake, as we dont want to trim the cowl.

Thanks in advance!

LS6 or vic jr with ultra low profile elbow. My friend had the vic jr/elbow on his 404 with a PT 76 and was making well over 700hp/tq, no cowl trimming required

As above. The factory intakes aren't much of a restriction. I'm running a factory ls7 intake shooting for 1500rwhp. It's done just fine up to 1200rwhp so far.
