Your signature says youre running 800ftlb torque.. that is approaching (if not well-in) the danger-zone for VQ headgaskets. You could be an exception. But if you are looking to stay on the safe side of things, I wouldnt be worried about your intake manifold I would be worried about your headgaskets.
Actually there was a guy on the forum several years ago Hojin and he had his manifold fail at least twice at 25 and 26 psi. I believe he was at 9:1 compression.
