Boy...at this point it looks like I was the only bastard to vote for the LS6 intake huh? Hell I even own a FAST intake on my car.....but if I had it to do over again, I'd have bought the LS6 and saved a bunc of money. The only reason I got the FAST is because of my Spray.

By the way....this FAST vs. LS6 polls and threads are beat to hell aren't they? I mean....we get like 3 a week!!!!

LS6/ported TB gets my vote. That setup should be good to 500rwhp at half the cost.

Well I already have a LS6/ported TB now. I am trying to decide whether the 90/90 would be worth it. Would I see any gain. The car is going to stay all motor. I was just wondering if the 90/90 was too big for stock CI NA engines.
I think its in the low 400 rwhp range as of now. The intake seems like about the only HP mod I have left besides raising compression.

Man, that's like asking which cam for me, an MS4 or a LS6 cam.

The 90/90 will have a certain advantage over the LS6.

The LS6 is still restrictive. The fastest cam-only guys run them AND the fastest bolton-only guys. Losing some low end is also the nature of the gain when gaining upper end power. There's that curve shift associated with it at times (ex: going from a Performer RPM to a Vic Jr.) that might hurt lowend, but more than make up for it on the top end.

I'll take a 90/90 anyday of the week on a stock LS1 motor fwiw.

Ben are you planning a trip to MMP in Montgomery, Alabama on May 12 for the fast street car races?

Depends on your goals actually but I'll assume you want as much as possible in which case the 90/90 would be it.
