Irrelevant in street applications and in races, nothing a 50 shot dry wouldn't cool down.
We should be more interested in flow #'s and performance testing.

Holy run on sentence batman!
I gather from this your sayin the LSX is prooven and the BBK is not, has bosses for N2O, and it comes in sections. I got lost after that though.

There is also a NX/TB 85mm in the works, I'm waiting for some info from nitro Dave on these.
Also Alum intake has porting, portmatching capabilities, O-rings, and for the "bling, bling" poeple, polishing to mirror finish.
But all this wouldn't mean squat if it doesn't outflow LS6 and perhaps FAST.

Unless the BBK puts out some good numbers, I'm gonna stick with an LS6 off ebay for $200 max after I do exhaust. I can't see spending hundreds more on an intake that gives maybe 10more rwhp on a cammed street motor.

i have my order in for it through summit, the BBK is similar to the Weian, but it has a 85mm TB opening, basicaly designed for their TB.
It supposedly flows better than a LS6 but as all have said it hasnt shipped yet, im really wanting mine to get here. Summit has a ship date on it and its next tuesday, im really hoping their right
