I have an older style Maggie and though I love the instant power feel, I have reached its limitations at 800 RWHP.

When I bought the car the supercharger was already on it so I do not have the stock Camaro air intake manifold. I am suffering a bit under taking that beautiful polished Maggie off for more power but I know my options are limited. I hear the stock LS3 intake is actually pretty hard to beat for the price, however I would like to know if you have an opinion about what would be a good intake match for the F-1X powered to the 13-14 psi range for now with the thought of bumping up to 20+ psi once the engine is replaced?
maybe it is a bit of overkill but I have been looking at Hogan's Racing Manifolds. They offer a beautiful LS3 intake of course the price is $3000. Other than paying for the looks do you have any experience with these folks, or ever heard of them? Would I be spending money foolishly to pay that price for an intake?
Thanks for your opinion. I have included a pic.

Beautiful car, I did notice your belt adjuster could be tighter, push it as far to the pass side as it will go while keeping the JRE supertensioner toward the top of the range.
The Stock intake is the way to go for a centrifugal supercharger.
