LS6 or Street Warrior LSx Intake

Well I will be doing a Cam install on my 98 Formula. With most bolt-ons and the stock ls1 intake I put down 348hp/357tq last month.

I could get the LS6 intake for around 350, but would like to know if I should hold out a bit and get the new Street Warrior. How much does that LS1 intake hold me back??

Thanks
Brandon

The LS1 is the worst to have out of all the available intakes... not that it's bad or anything, just not the BEST one to have when you compare them all...

The LS6 is proven, but I'd probably hold out for the Street Warrior. But don't hold your breath, it's been on hold for a while now

You can find a good ls6 for about 300 on here. Best bang for the buck. Should give you a soild 12 RWHP more with good exhuast.

I spoke with Weiand today and they stated the intake should be out in mid August. Also, they stated that as of now no testing has been completed. Lastly, they've had multiple issues finding a manufacturer for it. Hopefully they'll get it together and give FAST a run for they're money!
