Default ls6 intake gains?

Considering an LS6 intake for my 99 T/A. SLP says 15rwhp gains, does anyone have different numbers?

Very dependant on what other mods, you have or will do, after cam and heads, that ls6 intake will make a huge difference over the ls1, but on a stock engine, it might not make a very significant increase. Good mod to do though.

What about the Aluminum LS6 Style intakes, are there any advantages over the composite ones? If the costs are the same which would you use?

I would stay with composite as it is better with heat.
