I am building a forged 3.905 ls1. I will be running a 76mm turbo. I want to see 850 to the wheels. So my question is what intake will get me there? I was thinking the edelbrock vic jr with an elbow and a 90mm tb, or the 85mm typhoon style with matching tb. Any better suggestions?

What RPM do you want to spin this thing to and do you already have a cam chosen?
That will play more of a part of what manifold you use versus how much power.
A LS2 or LS6 intake will rev to 6800-7000rpm in a turbo application and make enough power to lift the heads off a 4 bolt block.

Excess timing creates excess cylinder pressure, excess boost creates excess cylinder pressure, too small of a cam creates more dynamic compression which creates too much cylinder pressure, too much static compression creates excess cylinder pressure........etc. etc. etc.
There are a bunch of contributing factors.
