Question LSX Intake, performance?

Anyone have an LSX intake installed? I'm curious how much a diffrence it'll make compared to an LS6 intake manifold. And yes I tried a search didn't come up with anything.

Here's a the search results for "FAST 90" (That's what most people call it). You'll find some answers in there.

the Fast 90/90 set up is good if you have a bigger displacement or boost or some insane hp numbers. it will have gains over the ls6 but not enough to justify the price but does perform better in the higher rpms which is good if you got a high revving cam

Yeah I'm looking at forced induction so will probably leave the stock LS6 manifold on and upgrade the throttle body.
