Default LS2 vs SSR vs LS6 vs Truck manifold for turbo setup on a 2001

Two considerations here:

1. What are the differences in flow rate?

2. Which is going to be most compatible with return-style fuel rails, cable throttle body, and EGR system on my 2001?

I am going to use a LS2 Vette intake on my set up, I think the quickest way to completion is after market fuel rails. I have done some reading and for what I have planned the LS2 intake will be exactly what I need.

I doubt you would see much off a difference between any of the intakes. A turbo likes them all. Cablebandit swapped between ls1, ls6, and a fast setup. They all were about the same, except the fast. It hurt his power down low but helped up top.
