The LS6 intake will net you more power than a TB. Just wait to install it until you get the cam. You'll need a tune with the cam and the EGR can be "tuned out" at the same time.

I agree.

Intake would be a much better investment then TB.

Get the intake manifold and save up $75 to get your TB ported and polished.

Until you move to an intake like the FAST LSX, a ported TB is all you need. Larger aftermarket TBs do not do very much since the opening of the LS6 intake doesn't exceed the stock diameter by much if at all. e.g. BBK 80mm TB needs an adapter plate to transition the larger TB to the smaller opening.
