Default Ls1 vs. ls6 intake

Looking through some of the heads here I see some impressive times and trap speed. On a forced inductn set up how much difference would a ls6 intake make over a ls1? Anyone have any thoughts or gone from one to the other without any other change?

Just now got my ls6 valley and other parts and hopefully Saturday.ill switch out the ls1 intake. Got a mid term coming up and trying to find some use headers or find a cheap way to make block offs for the egr and trying to figure out how to remove the air system since most how to's have no more pictures :/. I'll tell you if I feel a difference the car just has a flowmaster catback (previous owner) and a knock sensor code(washed the engine bay :<)

I have followed some of his threads and asked him for what parts to use. This is just food for thought here w this thread. But 40hp is significant.
