Limits of stock ls1 intake on FI setup
Exactly what the title says. I am looking for numbers and others input on what can be made with a bone stock ls1 intake.
Thanks
BTW- search is not working. This question may have came up before??

I dont think it has a tested "limit" more like I think there is an efficency loss... you can FI a LS1 Intake over 1000RWHP I am sure... but with a better intake it would make more like 1100 or more (just throwing the numbers out for example)

I am bringing this back from the dead. I have a Vic jr + sheetmetal elbow ready for the car but some new machining costs make me contemplate selling them and just running the stock ls1 intake. I am not a 1000whp dreamer, realistically I will be at 650-750 at the wheels. How bad is the stock intake going to hurt me?
