Sounds like a great deal!!!!! He's probably jumping up to the FAST manifold.
I would buy it, but you would have to put an egr delete.

EGR delete is something you remove from the car. Fast intake is better for more power down the road. For 250 dollars that intake is a steal,buy it NOW.

$250 is a good price for the LS6. It will add about 10rwhp over the LS1. I sold mine for $350 when I got the FAST. The FAST really only makes more power if you have H/C.

The Fast setup is nice, but man they are expensive.

You should buy it and if you don't use it sell it on here you'll easly get your money back.

I'd first double-check the GM part# to ensure you don't already have one on your car. $250 is a great price on it, especially if it includes the coolant line.

He has an LS1 intake, a '00 did not come with an LS6 intake I dont believe, anyone else can correct me if I am wrong. To OP you will like it... i've actually heard that the Fast is not a "huge" difference especially for the price.... the LS6 will definately help you up top.
