Default Intake ?

I have been looking around at differenet intake manifolds and I came across the BBK intake at WS6store.com. Has anyone gave this one a try over the standard LS6 intake? They claim it flows 15% better. Any comments?

i searched and could not find the a thread that had actually user feedback, in fact i searched for BBK and only 1 1/2 pages of threads came up. So why do you all say to go with the ls6 over the BBK. I already have the ls6, but my friend is going to buying a intake manifold very soon and he is leaning towards the BBK one because he can get it with a 80mm throttle body for 795+shipping. Do you all think he would see more gains with the ls6 intake, and a stock ported throttle body?
thanks,
Brandon

If you want to step it and get something better then the LS6, get the FAST 90.
