Simple I currently have a ported Y8 intake manifold ported to 60mm matched with a B16 TB.... now Is that a good setup?? Or should I just sell the Y8 and get the Edelbrock-X unit.... cuz I found one for around 250 shipped..... just a thought thanks guys!

From my reading, the Z6 manifold is actually better, redneck racing has given better times for it and it has straight runners rather than curved.

which edelbrock-x manifold are you referring to? the performer X might be a good choice, but the victor-x has very short runners that will put your powerband way up in the rpms to a pretty much untouchable "7000-10000rpms" (to quote edelbrock).

Victor X = B series, something not too welcome here, but tolerated.

I'd say keep the Y8 since you've done work on it already

Turbo setup, the performerX will make more power for sure!!!!!(If your intake port are big enough to accomodate the bigger runner of the performerX)
