Your LS6 manifold is pleanty good enough man That topic has been beat to death in here to. A little searching would net you tons of threads on that debate. Altho I'm sure even the advocates for bigger manifolds would even agree that at your level, you would be better off investing the money into things that won't really agree with your new power such as your trans, driveshaft, and rear end.

Gotcha, I just don't recall you posting about your boost levels and I was always curious. Still good numbers, how much timing are you running?

If you can upgrade your pistons, valve springs and pushrods seems that you would be good for boost (to an extent) I would just do that and have the car running safely.

Its cheaper and easier to upgrade before something breaks. If cost is an issue for you, as it is for me, be patient. Something better might come along while you keep researching.

Those pulls were at 16*, 93+Meth. Its been upped to 18* and has taken it on the street, just haven't got it back on the rollers. It is under the knife again and I'm hoping to pick up a little more power so we'll see by about Wed. next week.

Nice, I'm trying to sell this MAF Snow Performance 2 Stage kit that I have so I can actually get the MAP version so I can run meth and up my timing. I'm only running 14* with 93. Hell, I can't hook up now, that extra power wouldn't help that much either. Let me know what you end up making

Will do man! The car is worthless on the street sub 50MPH, it simply doesn't hook. Cut's 1.4 60's on DR's at the track tho, not bad for 3966lbs!

Hopefully thats what I'll be cutting when I get my new tires. I was cutting mid 1.5's n/a and the best I could cut with some bald qtp's was a 1.65. I'm probably right around your weight, we have some PIGS
