Get the LS6 intake, probably the best budget intake out there at the moment. As far as adding a ported throttle body on top of this, it shouldn't require a retune, but to get the maximum benefit out of any mod dealing with the engine it can be very beneficial to do so.

The LS6 intake and the Z06 intake are the same thing. Unless you are doing a heads/cam swap then stick the LS6

I'd go with the ls6 unless you're going with a monster h/c combo or big cubes.
