Look at this and the other sticky's

Total looking at ~30rwhp. Depending on what you are making now it could vary from 310-340rwhp.

Intake manifold (i.e. LS6 intake)

85mm lid and MAF are a waste of money unless you plan on going to a 90/90 combo soon. Since you're getting an LS6 intake i highly doubt you'd be upgrading to a 90mm intake any time soon. Save yourself the money and hassle, stick with the stock MAF...and don't modify it.

ported maf sensors screw with the flow too much IMO, they are only accurate if they have all the components they were designed to have.

you can get a stock one at a gm parts site, like spdc, or maybe ill sell you mine lol. i woudl go back to stock if you arent going to tune it very soon. if you are gonna tune it soon and have someone do a full, real tune on it, not some bull **** one like some shops do, get them to recalibrate it and just get an LS6 MAF, its 85mm, lots of our sponsors sell them

There's no reason to buy a new stock MAF if you still have your old one...

if you no longer have your stocker i'd search the for sale section here on the site.
