Results of having a Trick Flow street intake:
Background:
I just installed recently a trick flow street intake/shorty headers, 2 1/2" offroad h-pipe and cat-back, a few other things (intake stuff, 3.55 gears, full MSD ignition system) on my GT which already had Cobra roller rockers and i also ported the exhuast on the stock heads. It also has a 70mm TB, 73MM MAF and cold air induction.
Results: The intake manifold/porting/exhaust that i did to my car DRAMATICALLY increased how fun my car was to drive. I can smoke the tires up to 45mph now easily (i need to do something to the stock suspension) and it's almost scary to drive in the rain. The intake is cool because it whistles at idle and the engine sounds like a winston cup engine

the powerband jumped up from wheezing at 4500 rpm to coming alive at 4,000 and pulling all the way to 5500. The powerband is really wide and it sounds great. I think the quality of the Trick Flow intake manifold is top notch, the casting quality is great and i think it looks good too. I had to choose between the cobra and the trick flow street and i chose trick flow because i've never heard any bad comments about how it performs. The Cobra was my original choice but i heard people tell me i'd want to port it if i supercharged my engine, etc. So that is what basically pushed me to the Trick Flow manifold.
The edelbrock manifold i've heard mixed reviews about although it's supposed to be great and i've heard the GT40 intake flow only a little better than the Cobra and costs$200 more.
