This. Not sure how a ported ls2 would flow vs a ls6 but your probably talking more money for an insignificant, if any, gain. Would also have to buy a tb for the ls2 intake whereas you can use the stocker with the ls6.

The LS2 intakes are worser than the LS1 intakes. IMO just buy an LS6 intake and be done with it. Yes a Ported LS2 intake is right there if not better than the LS6 but if you don't buy it ported then why waste your money on it. You can find the LS6 intakes in the classifieds all day for 300-350 dollars all day.
