ls6 intake or not?
I was thinking of buying this but im not sure if its worth the money on a bolt on engine. Would something like FAST 92mm be a better option. Im not sure if id notice much with the ls6.
Heres my setup
Pacesetter Long Tube Headers
Texas Speed 3" Catted Y Pipe
Thunderbolt HighFlow Cats
MagnaFlow Catback
SLP Lid
K&N Filter
Prothane Motor Mounts

I gained 21 hp over my ls6 with a 232 234 .590 .598 cam with home ported heads

But if you are going to stay internally stock then stay with the ls6 manifold.
Also don't get a fast 90 and keep you stock MAF. Many people THINK the stock maf is good for 500hp but it just doesn't work well with bigger tb's.
The stock maf is 74mm, so why would you use it with a 90mm tb?

Not sure if I made it clear but right now I have the LS1 intake, not the LS6. Ive been reading alot on it and it seems like a decent mod. I plan to keep the internals stock for a while.
Thanks for all the responses.

ls6 is a nice mod over the ls1. Its not going to be night and day, but it is a gain

Its is pretty decent for the price. A used one can be bought for around $300. Bolt ons like this might not seem like a lot now, but they will show their value once you mod the engine. Your basically laying down your foundation with bolt ons.

If you can pick up a used fast it's certainly a mod worth doing. Things you have to consider is getting a larger throttle body for it. If you are considering a cam in the future I would consider it.
