Schrick manifold by a long shot.

No contest. That's why Corrado VR6 owners take the standard one off and replace it with a Schrick VGI (and ideally 268 cams as well!). Easily makes 10bhp with cams fitted as well(or more) over the standard set up. But its the lowdown torque where the real benefits are.

The Schrick flows a little more than than 2.9 manifold at the top end, but it's primary role was a torque boost as you say....but the Schrick actually makes 10lb/ft less torque at 1500rpm than the stock 2.9 manifold does. The peak torque doesn't happen until about 3000rpm, before and after that there isn't a massive difference over stock...but the torque shifts right down to 3000 instead of 4000, which is great for midrange punch and it knocks a second off the 50-70 time.
