Default Intake Manifold: Which one ?

built motor check....Ok so the stock plastic intake manifold found on the EJ255 has its limitations and there are lots of alternatives in the market. I am leaning toward the Cosworth version but could be open to alternatives. I do not want some backyard fabricated dodgy weld spec manifold. Any suggestions and reasoning as to why ?

Factory metal DBW STI manifold (or specC if you can find), 08+ STI top mount.

Factory mounting, OEM plugs, loom mounts etc. No need to fuck around. Also much likely to be significantly cheaper than any aftermarket manifold and good for over 600hp

Don't listen to him.

Cosworth to finish the balla look.

If money is no option then cosworth is the clear choice, but a normal STI manifold match ported will do well
