A waste of money on something that looks like ****.
Buy these..
Lid- Just get a used one of here.. They can be had for around 50-80$ +shipping or shipped.
Cutout- 35$ brand new off Jegs/Summit.. Get someone to weld it up for you, should only be around 25$.
Ls6 intake/ported TB.. Get a used one on here.. DO NOT pay more than 310$ shipped on the intake... Be careful who did the porting on the TB.. There is a guy from the forums that sells ported TBs on ebay and does a good job on them, think it is like 70$ (pic has a lady holding it with huge ****)? And then you can sell your TB for some cash.
Cheapest route with more power gains.

You would be looking at around a 20-23Rwhp gain after a tune. Well worth it for the money. The ls1 intake is horrible all the way around. The ls6 flows very good all the way up to around 6K and then starts falling off. If you will be spinning to 6400+ RPMs, buy a FAST setup.
Ls6/ported TB is the best "bang for the buck" setup by far.

You can either buy coolant tubes or modify the ones you have, I suggest modify the ones you have. Look it up on here, there are plenty of threads on it. ls1howto.com probably has a perfect write up for it I would imagine.

ok Im back with more questions. Even-though, the ported tb and ls6 intake can give you up to 24hp whats the hp difference between the ported tb and ls6 intake and them name brand tbs and intake?(bbk, fast etc..)
If it were me, if you have the money I would look out for a used FAST 92 intake and a 92mm or 90mm TB... Will be the best bang for the buck and leave you plenty of room to grow.
