Help deciding on intake manifold & tb

First of all I been a member to the site but just now decided to post a thread. So if anyone has advice on what kind of intake manifold & tb is better an why? Photos installed would be nice.

My evo9 is going in the shop to forge internals an swap to 2.3, so I was personally wanting to go with an ams f-1
I'm running a stock intake with a ported tb

Don't waste your time/money on anything but the ported stocker. Start there first. If you don't hit your goals with that then try something else. I went from a ported stocker to the ams f1i and back to a CB Ported stocker. I will never do aftermarket again.

I was told about also going with a Magnus.
I'm hoping to hit upper 700's. Switching from c16 to e85 as well. I guess there ups an downs to any manifold intake. I was just told to stick with a cast iron an not aluminum cause they won't last an will crack.

I would do ported skunk2 & S90 throttle body From Stm since that is what is on the worlds fastest Evo in the 1/4 mile.

All of the intakes manifolds mentioned are aluminum. None I know of for Evo are cast iron.
