install it. sell your ls1 intake. youll notice a difference. saves you from ever having to spend the $300 later when you need an ls6, after your heads and cam, lol.

Whats your future plas on modding the car? If this is it for you then I would sell it and get some gears or something else. However if you are going the Heads/cam route down the road then keep that sucker and install it

Yeah I know that but if he sells the intake and profits $$ towards gears he will knock off more at the track with the gears then he would with the 10-15 HP from the inatke on his setup without heads/cam. And he could buy gears with the profit from the intake sale. 4.11s would help his performance and make the car more fun to drive then a LS6 intake.....IMO

The LS6 intake shows its increased HP over the LS1 intake around 4k RPMS and up. Tons of LS1 owners have switched from the LS1 to LS6 intake with little mods and been happy.
Stall definitely, 3500 is what most LS1 owners get. If you get under a 3000 stall you will most likely regret it and end up going bigger later down the road.
