The weiand flows just a hair less than the ls6. Your def gonna get more bang for your buck with a fast and tsp has their fast 92/92 setup for 1099.

Best bang for the buck would be an ls6. Best overall would be the Fast.

I'd go with the wieand,the fast is just over priced,as far as ls6 flowing better then wieand ,not what i've seen,plus leaves you room for later.{porting}

If you want the value, the LS6 as stated above is it hands down. For the most power the FAST , and for the best looking but the least heat-soak power robbing inconsistant runs application, the Alum ones. We have seen as much as 20 rwhp loss between a cool first run on the dyno w/the alum ones & a hot engine compartment heat-soaked one.

Pretty looking bling, but power? no.

The Wieand Alum intake has been out for several years....but we are all waiting for the composite one to be released.

BBK is right in the middle with power and price. If you run 10 laps back to back with no cool down you will have a heat soak issue. But other than that run a cartridge roll up the runners to knock off the casting flash and throw a good TB on there.

i'd wait man, you dont have to have the intake now do you? Who knows, the street warrior might end up sucking or it might end up awesome. too early to tell.
