Hey guys. I dont have alot of $ but I would like a new intake manifold to replace the LS1 I have currently. My buddy says I should get a FAST intake but that seems extreme for me.
All I have is lid, bellow, descreened MAF, headers (not installed yet), and Borla. I dont think Ill ever put a cam in or use Nitrous. Just boltons and when I get the headers installed Im going to get HPE to dyno-tune my car.
What do you guys recomend would be a good manifold for the money.
Your 2 cents is welcome and appreciated. Thank You.

yeah the ls6's are around 300 used and go pretty quick. You just need to watch the for sale section like a hawk and you'll find one. I was looking for a used FAST intake for sale in there and after about a week or two I got one. Keep in mind there are far more LS6's that go up for sale than FAST's. Also with the mods you have and no intention to ever cam it then you're right...a FAST is overkill. I would combine the LS6 with a ported throttle body for an extra $100 or so. You can find them in the for sale section and they're usually on ebay too.
