Best plenum for Vortech

Best plenum for Vortech
I have wanted to know what is the best plenum for a V3 supercharged o6 g35 (revup engine, dynoed around 450 whp from ZCar Garage). I have done research and cannot find answers I'm looking for, hoping someone can help.
About the car; 06 G35 coupe, bought as is pretty done up: v3, Bassani exhaust, MD 5/16 spacer. I also have MD ART pipes and an MREV2 lower plenum from previous build ready to install. I also have an aluminum driveshaft to install, wanted to get everything done and dyno tuned at the same time.
Questions are:
-is that the best intake for this combo? I love the MD + MREV2 for my NA. I'm looking for more bottom torque, Vortech takes care of 4.5k and up. Money is not an issue, I will give up lower rom torque if the whole package is better (dyno whp is NOT the goal, an actual beast is!)
-is this too much for the rods? (82k on engine, 20k with SC, 6.8psi tune) plan on getting the engine done next year (driving it until then).
I know these questions seem redundant, but I would appreciate the help

I wouldn't attempt adding Vortech extra pressure to a VQ motor with that kinda mileage! Look under "Engines" there's a company in Texas that has all the right stuff to build a new motor with the right c/r to withstand being supercharged and turn your ride into the beast you're looking for! This is exactly what I'd do if I intended to keep my coupe...Gary
