Turbski manifold opinion

So, 5 pounds on the low output saab turbo. Think its a gt2052. Like the size of my hand. Lmao
Anyways, what intake manifold would be the most efficiently between the saab manifold, lsj manifold, and le5 manifold?

Now, clearly the saab or le5 manifold would be air to air cooled.
The Lsj would be air to water.
Yes I know the le5 is plastic and I've read about jbody and alero guys running 15 pounds using it.

I have just about everything for whichever one I decide to use. Just curious if people have any facts on which flows best?

LE5 manifold flows more air than the Saab mani, but for that low of boost a water to air setup is simpler because of the piping.

That seems out of the question just because of the price, but ive never flow tested one.

Id love a ttr manifold, but I already have an le5 on the car and I have an lsj manifold in storage. All i would really need to buy is an intercooler pump and bracket.
Trying to get this set up with all extra parts I have.
Think stock endplate would be good enough? A dual pass doesn't cost that much these days though. Hmm
