Default Did I screw up?

I got my 78mm LSX the other weekend , threw it on went to the track and noticed nothing in my mph, we tuned it a bit but haven't had it on the dyno yet. I have stock tb,maf,bellows.....the rest you can see in my sig. Will I not notice anything untill I swap the tb etc? Or should I have gotten the 90mm Intake?

since you're runnin a healthy cam, the 90mm would have been the way to go. only possible reason i would go 78mm FAST intake is.....dammit.....i can't think of one. even if i was handed one for free, i'd try and sell it to buy a 90mm FAST.

I didn't think I required it unless I was stroking it. Shouldn't I still have seen an improvement over my LS1 Intake ?
