Default FAST Intake w/78 mm Throttle Body?

I'm asking this for a friend of mine. He recently purchased a FAST 78 mm throttle body and was wondering if the FAST intake would work with it, or would he have to buy a 90 mm throttle body if he wanted to get the FAST intake?

Thanks

FAST makes a 78 mm intake just buy the 78 mm intake and you will be all set.

Tell him to get rid of the 78 and just get the 90 tb/intake.

Anybody seen any HP Gains with the 90mm over the 78? Assuming you have the proper mods.

Thanks a ton, guys. He's still not sure if he's gonna get the intake or not (it a 2002 so it has the LS6 intake now). I have to admit though, that I've never seen a gain with a 90mm TB over a 78mm (not that there isn't, but I've never seen one). I'm sure he won't get the 90mm since he already got the 78mm. Plus, the car only has bolt-ons right now and will just be getting a mild heads and cam package, so it shouldn't need anything too crazy for an induction setup. The 78mm with the LS6 is probably enough, but who knows, if funds allow then the intake might find it's way onto the motor.
