Default LS6 vs. LS2 intake on turbo LQ4

Hey guys, just looking for opinions mostly in a boosted application. I received a free LS2 intake from a friend and I like the idea of a 90mm TB. I am building a stock displacement LQ4, forged pistons and rods with 317 heads. The car will be N/A for a year or so before I put 2 62mm precisions on it. How will a stock LS2 intake do both N/A and boosted compared to a stock LS6? Would a ported LS2 be better than a stock LS6?? Thanks.

just what I have been told (which could be wrong). Is a stock ls6 out flows a stock ls2. But a ported ls2 out flows a ported ls6. Im sure someone with more experience will chime in.

No testing with an LS6 but a LS2 makes 954whp on my 5.3 at 28lbs.

Thanks guys. Seems like I'm really not saving any money because I have to get a 90mm TB but I already have the intake.
