Let's go with a human with full alphaware cyberlimbs and cybertorso (all synthetic to avoid easy detection), plus adapsin and biocompatability with cyberware. add synaptic boosters to up his IPs, and give him a wingsuit, possibly with a wingsuit jetpack, and grappling gun.

Interesting.
Best movie I can think of for this topic is Kick-Ass. These are down-to-earth superheroes only relying on skill and gear (low-cost batmans if you want). A shadowrunner team doing good, would be a group pf Big Daddys and Hit-Girls.

Well, with a good bit more paranoia. No way should a runner group meet up with a contact who claims to be in trouble without any sort of overwatch, legwork, etc. Just plain dumb, that is. Furthermore, they really lacked a face, and connections. Big Daddy and Hit Girl are basically a couple of street sams. Quite effective at mayhem, but with serious weaknesses from a lack of support.

Not to worry. with the exceptional electronic warfare sidekick EEW MAN they cannot fail while being supported by their Justice Mobile driver SKIDMARKS MAN.

I was more thinking along the lines of 'Mystery Men', personally... Captain Amazing would probably be sponsored by half the megacorps
Actually I had a run idea today: Two groups of 'superheros', one group high end with mysterious sponsors, one group low end and dedicated to doing good. Group low end is suspicious of group high-end's mysterious funding and scrounge some money together to hire the runners to infiltrate it to check it out.
I was planning on having the funding come from somewhere like the universal brotherhood, the humanis policlub, something like that, and having the head superhero under their thumb and forwarding their agenda.
Yes, I know it needs to be fleshed out a bit.
