Default expected gain Ls1 IM to 90mm IM

Hey guys.. Wasn't sure where to post this but I was just wondering what you all think ill pick up for power going from my stock Ls1 intake and ported throttle body to a PP 96mm and edelbrock 90mm throttle body.. I know these get a bad rep and it may be too big for my application but I got a deal I couldn't pass up. My car has stock heads.. A 230 236 612 607 114 cam.. Headers and TDs.. I am hoping for at least 10 rwhp

i believe it will preform better then what people above believe i think more like 30, the 96mm inlet even if poorly designed will make more then the ls6 i mean theres just more air......

Im going w/ a similar setup, the guy I bought the intake from told me that it should make a bit more hp then the LS6 and still make power beyond where the ls6 would fall off.
