You will be wasting your money buying a FAST for a stock motor... unless you plan on cam/or heads and cam later down the road. For a stock motor a LS6 intake breathes plenty, the 1 to 5 hp you gain on the big end from the FAST that you wont even notice will just be taken away from your low end and hurt your driveability. Also it certainly does not justify spending more then triple the money for that intake, and not to mention the garbage TB they *** rape your wallet for.

I think it's been proven time and time again that a FAST cathedral intake will make more power on a modded car than a stock intake.
