Default tbss vs Vic..what better on nitrous

im looking to upgrade my manifold. ive been leaning towards the tbss but i see that that fastest 5.3 nbs silverado on spray uses the a vic jr. and i know that vic jr makes more power than the fast102 after like 6800 rpms. but i dont turn my motor more than 6700. so what do i do ?

Budget = TBSS
Power = FAST LSXRT
Mismatch = Vic Jr.

Pretty much the same as the F-body guys except insert LS6 & LSXR instead of TBSS & LSXRT...

The one benifit of the Vic Jr would be that it would hold up the best to a nitrous backfire.

For running that big of a jet, run a vic jr and a 4150 plate.

The vic may be overkill on a small cube. If you were 6.0 and above I'd be all over it. The tbss has proven itself as a great budget intake swap.
