Best Runner setup?

I need to get a new TPI setup. I know the Superram and miniram are the best, but personally I like the look of the runners. I have the Accel intake and was wondering what the best runners would be? ASM?Accel?SLP?

Yeah, go with the AS&M's LTR's if u want a stock look, and they flow alot better.

Slp are the best runners out there. No doubt about it. Yes, they don't flow as much as AS&M out of the box, but some porting and they'll outflow any runner out there, no to mention if you port them and then have them extrude hone to smooth out the casting.
SLPs are the best runner and the cheapest too.
