Quick rundown on the Setup
Hey there, I have a 2002 Trans Am WS6 that has bolt on right now. this is the setup I will be going with.
Currently has
TTS Longtube Headers
Corsa catback
Carbon Fiber Lid
Vigilante 3200 Stall
Dyno'd 350whp 360tq
Coming this summer are stage 2 heads with a blower cam.
Hoping to push close to 400-450whp with that.
The following summer The Vortech will be going on and with that setup on another car dyno'd 700hp on 8psi.
Now my question is what intake manifold should be used? Fast 92mm with 92mm TB? or do the 90mm combo?
Thanks in advance!

well according to my tuner who is huge in the vette/ls motor world FAST intakes just suck and are overpriced you would be better off with an ls6 intake with the TPIS oval snout and oval TB then have the ls6 port matched to the heads, i see you have an 02 so you have the ls6 anyways so if this isn your DD you could have this done pretty easily

Fast intakes are fine. $40/per hp is acceptable to some people. But I have to agree with twelver here. Unless you're trying to do a max effort build just stick with your LS6 intake. You're going to be pressurizing the system so you could do well to spend the money elsewhere.

The car sees a couple days in the summer as it only has 18k on her. So I should stick with the LS6 manifold match it with the heads and call it a day? If thats the case it saves me some money. I'm not looking for a drag car, just a nice street car that puts out good numbers and will turn some heads.
