Default need info on a manifold

hey guys i was looking into a new manifold and was thinking about a fast 92,but now i see it would have to be a 102 since they dont make the 92 anymore.but the ? is am i going for over kill should i just do the LS6.
my car dosn't hit the track maybe once in a great while,it's just my street toy and daily driver.I do plan on some long tubes,and unrestricted Y,and some kinda head and cam swap.problem is there are just so many choices and it seems like the more i read threads the more i just don't know which way to go!!!!!!


and also what else do i need when i plan to do my manifold swap

If you know for a fact your gonna do heads,cam,or other big mods then just get a big intake. If not just get the ls6.
Someone correct me if im wrong but I think the ls6 is good till about 450hp until your holding back power I cant remember

the ls6 is a very goo flowing intake, i got one on my car and when i cam the car itll be left right where it is.

buddy with a g5x3, bolt ons, and 4000 stall runs 11.8 on motor, full weight, stock suspension and 10.8 on the bottle. this is with an ls6 i dont think its holding him back if that give you an idea.

300 for ls6 and 60 for ported tb
or
over a grand for fast and larger tb

Id get the FAST and just put the 92mm Throttle body on it. Ive learned that I might as well get what I want the first time, or Ill buy something thats cheap and end up buying the better piece later.

I have the 102mm and I have a 90mm on it because I had it already. I can always upgrade to 102mm later.
