Default What am I giving up-

For my N2O build I had not intended on a new intake yet.
I have the Stock LS6 on it-
quick rundown of critical mods-
Forged internals
SpeedInc RGR Stage 2 heads-
Fairly large cam
1 7/8 Kooks LTs
Magnaflow Catback

It has grown from a simple Heads/Cam swap to a full build- (cracked sleeve, since we were there might as well go big)

I know the stock Intake and TB (can port, haven't yet) are going to be the Choking point, I want some opinions on what I am giving up by not stepping to a 92/92 now vs 6-8 months

Since you have heads and cam your prob looking at 20-30 hp difference in puting on 92/92 on there. If you have the 1100 for the intake and throttle body do it. If not just throw a stock ported throttle body on the LS6 and youll be good.

Thanks for the input-
What are stock fuel rails good too... I will be running a dry shot as 1 stage pulling from the rail for the wet stages...

I think you could get away with the stockers but for safe keeping I would ugrade to different ones, fuel rails are cheap anyway so why not! Good luck
