Default Intake set up question????

Is there an intake fitment guide anywhere on tech? I want to to see what intake set up combinations will fit with each other. i.e.:

lid(xx mm)+maf(xx mm)+TB(xx mm)+ intake (xx mm)

any input would be greatly appreciated.

My idea for now is to run a TB 92mm with the rest of the stock units, but will that cause a problem?

You can leave it stock before the MAF but again I don't see why. SLP MAFs are really cheap even the Delphi truck MAFs are cheap and a 98mm lid isnt much more than a normal lid

I always thought aftermarket mafs were nothing but a gimic and make it harder to tune. Just what I heard no personal experiences...

My opinion the lid and maf need to be the same size or bigger then the tb or you are loosing flow and leaving power on the table if you are going to spent the grand or more to get the intake and tb why not spend a couple hundred more and get a lid and maf or a SD tune

ok.. well i think i am going to upgrade the MAF and lid aswell, dont have money for the intake right now so I think i will go with a 98mm lid+ 100mm MAF+ 92TB??? will that work with the LS6 intake for now?
