Kid Goku > Adult Goku post Freeza in-terms of intelligence anyway.
I don't think so about Luffy. I think one of the most obvious differences is that Luffy is from the human race and grew-up around people unlike Goku who until he was 12 only knew his Grand-apa Gohan (not counting the sheeeet know as DB Minus). He clearly understands humans. One of the early examples being Luffy helping Coby get into the Marines and him helping Coby become more independent. He even says so that what he did will help Coby become more independent in the future (instead of always relying on Luffy for help) and both Coby, Zoro and even Marines I think knew that.
Another one is him saying in Alabasta that it's naive and too idealistic for no-one to die in war because people die in his words. Which is quite true death is a natural part of war. Or in the same saga saying half-way through that he doesn't want to go to the Rebels' bases because they are pirates so what are they really going to do there? Just stand there and listen to Vivi telling the Rebels and everyone to stop? He knew that they could help but had to do something-else.
