Does swapping these intakes really make that big of a difference?

the intake is the weak link in these engines, swapping to an ls6 intake makes a huge difference

I may also be interested in paying someone to do the proper modifications for me as well. I just so happen to have an LS6 intake laying around.

This may be an idea for someone to make some $$$ on the side if they have a cheap source for parts and can produce a decent product.

If someone wanted to do the valley covers they could make some coin. Most people want a complete kit which is a pretty big number to throw at someone not to mention the time involved to collect the parts at the right prices.

As far as a difference, the kills and times me and david have posted should be all the proof anyone needs.

i can perform the mods for you guys. i have done 3 swaps and sold two kits.
problem is pricing. most people dont wanna spend the money. intake alone is about 350.00 shipped, then youll need tuning. 05-06 cars can go threw lewis eaton. 07-08 will need hp tuners. hp tuners will work for the earlier years too of course.
read my sticky and if someone needs my services then pm me.


supply me the intake and tray pay shipping both ways.
