Intake manifold questin
Intake manifold questin Whats up guys, over the winter i am changing a few things on my setup. I currently have a ls6 intake manifold with a stock throttle body. I feel like it is hurting my setup but i could be wrong. I am looking to switch but im not sure which direction to go. I do street drive the car alot. It is a th400 car so when im in power its between 5800-7000 rpm. I would like a 90mm throttle body which i feel the car would benefit from big time but lost on what intake. I dont want to cut the cowl. Ive seen a few intakes but would like opinions/dyno results from switching . Turbo car.

If the little info you provided is correct, your tune must be off. Otherwise, you wouldn't be asking these questions. Your intake and TB are not a problem on ANY turbo car that ever sees street duty. The fact that you are spinning a 408 turbo to 7krpm leads me to believe you are either the most jaded horsepower junkie alive, or you are doing it wrong.

Because the big thing most people (including myself) get caught up in is "do I need a bigger this, or the best that", etc. and they miss the fact that everything has to work together as a combination to work correctly and go fast.
