My comment was meant to be sarcastic. There's tons of better choices than spending $350 on something that restrictive.

Wait, you mean a 75mm throttle body on a 408 won't make it extra torquey?

lol ^^^^^^ the ls6 does have its place and does perform well. but its also OEM not AFTERMARKET where the intakes are designed for top flow numbers not velocity. it just depends on the application and how its designed to be used.

if I had a grand extra laying around ide drop it on the msd, just out of pure spite for the fast. gotta pay to play though.
