Default 408 with LS6... am I right about this?

I ran good at the track yesterday, but want to know if the guys with good knowledge think that a FAST setup would help me as much as I think. Here's the thread about my car:
https://ls1tech.com/forums/10-second-club/897375-knocked-door-i-m.html#post9098852
Basically I ran 11.3 @ 118mph NA. 10.4 @ 128 on 150 shot. So I'm thinking I need more airflow to maybe hit 10's on motor. Would a 92/92 give me the big increase that I think? That and my next tires won't be these HUGE wide 325's, cause I'm sure they eat HP.

well a ported 92/92 SHOULD pick you up 20-25 rw so i think you would be very close and with a slightly smaller tire like a 275/60 i think you would get there but will a smaller tire like that still be able to hook you on the juice ?
you could always try the smaller tires later.

You will most definitely pick up quite a bit of power with a 92mm FAST setup.

The fast 92 did wonders for my top end not to mention I picked up 28 rwhp and 20 rwtq with it and then went for a dyno day 2 weeks later and picked up 4 more rwhp. No track times yet but that ls6 is kinda choking the 408 imo.

Good. This is what I was thinking guys. And my tuner is more of a friend, so he'll dyno it and get every bit out of it that we can.

BUMP for some more opinions from those "in the know".
