What you're saying makes total sense to me, but I don't know enough about these cars to really know for sure lol. Not sure about what you're looking for, but for me I want the intake that's going to perform the best in a race, but still has great drivability if that makes sense. Peak numbers mean nothing to me if it doesn't make the car "actually" faster lol

Ugh...as long as the plenum can hold as much or more air than the runners need, you will not lose anything. Losing power is an illusion with the fast intakes. What you "lose" down low is simply moved up in the rpm's. The power is still there.
Let me ask you this, how often do you do a WOT pull from 2500 rpm? How important is that 15-20 ftlbs at 2500? Now, does that sound like a reasonable trade off for the extra 25 ftlbs @ 4k? To me it does.
If you want monster torque across the board, your going to need a small plenum with 18 inch runners. Chrysler guys will know what I'm talking about.
