Default BBK SSI Intake Manifold Questions

search is down so sorry if this has been posted before.

Why is it that I never hear anything about this intake? I'm curious how it performs as it supposedly outflows the ls6 by 10hp according to the ads. Does anyone have experience with this one? I'm mostly interested in the version with the 80mm T.B.

BBK is $400 from New Era Performance. LS6 is $300 used on eBay. They make about the same power (+/- 5RWHP at most). Go whatever fits your budget. I like the stock look of the LS6 and the better price. More ponies/dollar is what I'm concerned about.

I'll probably be getting this intake in the next week or two... If you plan on doing Nitrous or FI the BBK is a stronger unit.
