Dorman LS6 intake hits the dyno Don't know if this has been posted yet. But someone finally put the dorman intake on the dyno. And it performed on par with the original LS6! LS6 intake prices have been getting out of hand. Once word of this gets out it should provide some relief. http://www.onallcylinders.com/2014/12/04/dorman-ls6-intake-dyno-test/
It retails for $339 on Summit according to the link. LS6 intakes are usually $375-400 bare and some can be had in the low $300s if you wait around. I'd pay the extra $50 or so to have an OEM part. If they were under $300 I think they would be a hit. Just my two cents.

I'm looking for an LS6 intake right now. But everyone wants 400 PLUS shipping! Then I have to pay someone to tune out my EGR. I'm sorry. I would love to have an OEM LS6, but I can't just the extra cost for a used intake when I can get a brand new one that performs just as well for much much less.

Verdad Gallardo I've been following all the threads on this intake in hopes that someone chimes in with some good results. Really hoping it turns out to be a solid performer for everyone! It's a bargain at $300 for the potential I think it has. I'm especially looking forward to the 90 mm they are working on now though.
obviously not a stock LS1 or even close to stock. the Dorman intake seemed to be down 10hp and 10lb/ft of torque all across the board. would have been nice to see this test on a stockish motor.
