Default TSP LS6 Intake Manifold?

There is a special going on at TSP right now that includes the '02 Fuel Rail and 28.8 Injectors when you buy the LS6 Intake Manifold for $470. Would these things help me in any way? I'm going to buy the LS6 manifold anyways, but what good are these extras to me (this manifold is going on when i do myTR224 cam swap, as well as a ported TB)? And on a much larger scale, what do you all think about the LS6 manifold from TSP? Thanks.

i think the ls6 intake is one of the best bang for bucks.. especially on a modded car.

Hypothetically if I got my car tuned with my current injectors, it would be the same tune with the 28.8? Or would it be a different tune due to the fact that they flow more?

I plan to do the LS6 intake swap also and would like to know if I need anything else for a 2000 car? I see they sell the coolant plugs and coolant lines, will I also need these with this $470 kit?

i thought it was 410 bucks with the new rails? didnt they sell the manifold for 350? and 60 bucks for the rails? 470 is a bit steep and no coolant lines, mine as well buy the manifold for 300 somewhere and spend 60 bucks on the rails, plus 40 for the coolant lines and thats 400 bucks, but youll need a tune i think with bigger injectors.

you will definitely need a tune for the bigger injectors. and LS1LT1, for a stock internals car i don't see any benefit.
