Default ls1 intake vs ls6 intake with p1 setup

I already bought a ls6 intake and was wondering now if i should just not change the ls1 intake out . I know na people make great gains but will i get good gains going from ls1 to ls6 . Headers and full exhaust with a procharger . Worth it or not so much .

So I just put mine on 2 weeks ago along with my p/p throttle body. (This is before the LT's and TD's you see in my sig, their in my bedroom). I **** you not, It was noticable. Not in my head noticable either, I mean I definetly felt it pull harder. I thought it was hype and I wouldn't tell the difference. But I can assure you I did. You'll see how bad that ls1 flows. Huge difference between the 2.

Most definitely worth installing the LS6 manifold.
