How much gains from a LS6 Intake

I am having my LS6 Intake Painted right now and putting it on in a few weeks? Interested in seeing what everyone thing my gains will be. My Mods and my Last Dyno run are in my SIG. The Dyno run was before the magnaflow and PT TB.

Probably 10-12 hp is what i have heard. When i did mine i noticed some low end torque. ITs worth putting on esp with your mods

take it to the track and see what it has to say

OP, do you plan to dyno after LS6 install? always interested in seeing real world results and youll probably see more gains if your suspicions about the tune are correct
