Lsx Manifold ?

I was wonder what all you think about that lsx manifod, it says its a 20hp gain.. but is it worth it for 6 or 700 bucks?
Or what better mod can i get for 700?
sum guy said that if i get pullys i can get 10-15 hp.
( I have 02 Ws6 )

If your stock do a cat back and headers if you have some cash to blow.

U will be surprised how well an LS6 intake and a p/p tb works! My friend had it on his H/C LS1 SS, and only gained a few ponies from the FAST and nick williams TB. I no every bit helps, but u hafta ask urself, for about $1000 (including the TB) You can run hooker super comps and a nice catback, and gain much much more than 20hp

I'd go with a cam and related mods then.

A Manifold isn't so much a power adder as it is an opening for adding power. You won't notice any big change with just a manifold but it makes your other poewr mods more efficient. You have to work on both ends of the engine. It doesn't help to have an intake/heads that'll flow 500CFM and have an exhaust that'll only flow 360CFM. Your wasting potential. Once you do the other neccesary mods thats when you'll start seeing better power increases.
