Re: Intake manifolds
Air gap dual plane intakes seem to be the way to go these days ; give best all round street performance.
Hi-rise single plane intakes better suited for mid to top end performance
( with mods to support higher revs like heads ,cam ,stall and gears)

Re: Intake manifolds
If you're on a budget, focus your efforts elsewhere, like exhaust.

Re: Intake manifolds
Look for a used Edelbrock RPM or RPM Air-Gap,
or the Chinese copy version of either intake.
edit: The Air-gap design is very cold natured, so keep this in mind if you need to do a lot of winter driving.
