90, yes, 70 maybe 5 or 7 hp over the ls6 if that. what are your mods? Porting is when you match the intake to the heads, on the fast.

I have the fast personally I like the intake, If you stay with the 78mm just get a SDPC throttle body way cheaper than the NW and about the same gains.

I take it you're still stock heads and cam? If so and if you plan on going aftermarket H/C or cam only later on then go ahead with the 90/90 setup. If not then just keep the LS6 intake. And go ahead and spend the money on the NW TB. I had the FAST one on mine for a few months and just hated the thing. Swapped it out with a NW and it runs great now...

The main issue I had with it was I couldn't get the IAC counts off 0 and have the idle correct. The highest I got them was 20 but if you just touched the gas the RPM's shot up to 2k and took it's dear sweet time to come back down. Then when I put it back it worked fine if I was putting around town. But once I made a WOT blast the car wouldn't idle afterwards. Had to shut the car off for a few minutes before it would idle right.

After taking it off I held the FAST TB up to the light and noticed a lot of space betweek the TB blade and the TB itself. Do a search here and you'll see what other members had problems with..
