Blasphemy! The factory LS6 Intake Manifold has been PROVEN to Mid 8 Second Passes and 1000+ horsepower! The only intakes you have to worry about are ones that leak. The LS6 does not leak. A Vic Jr. would be nice but it doesn't have the best airflow distribution.

Send your ls6 intake to tpis to have them put the 90mm snout on it and call it good

No need, that will just add a way for it to leak boost. Leave it stock, port the TB, go fast.
