Yes the heads will work, and to my knowledge (correct me if I'm wrong) the PI intake is plenty sufficient and other aftermarket intakes show very minimal gains.

yeah the pi intake is enough unless u wanna go with forced induction, then some of the aftermarket intakes will show decent gains.

yeah theres a few intakes out there that look totally awesome, and have better gains than the pi intake, but they are almost a grand versus 60 which i paid for my pi intake.

Depending on what the compression ratio is when your done and how much boost you want to run and what bottom end you have etc etc.

Patriot heads are just stock PI Heads Ported and worked by them.You might be able to get it done cheeper if you get the pi heads and Get some one like Nickmckinney to port them
