Default Tpis intake

Anyone running this intake and throttle body? Tried searching but got nothing. Saw it in a magazine and the said the picked up like 20hp over just a regular ls6 intake.

Are you talking about the 76X90mm LS6 TPIS OVAL?

If so, I have my eye on that intake also. It's going on my next setup.

I used the 90mm TPIS TB on my old 90mm FAST intake and the TPIS was a good TB.

I have thought about that set up too. If you ask them (TPIS) they say it might be a few ponies shy of the FAST 90/90 set up but like half the price, sounds good to me.

That's the one i'm talking about. Does anybody know how much for the intake and throttle body? Also what would be the gains over a stock ls1 intake.

but no one like thunder or TSP sells them?

also is there a bigger gain switching to this with the TB than with a ls6 manifold and ported stock throttle body?

edit - jesus! its $920 for the intake and TB! i thought it was suspose to be half as much as the fast intake!

Yeah that was a great thread. If you have the stock LS1 intake does that work for the core you need for the oval intake? It seems from the core charges for the TB, that the LS1 stock TB is good for the exchange...

It'll be painful to have to pay the LS6 core charge...

..s'pose I should ask TPIS...

Yeah, they're way overpriced. I think that's why they don't sell too well. Most people probably just wait untill it's time to step up to a FAST 90.
