ls1 intake to restrictive?

Just as the post reads, is my ls1 intake a magor restriction on my setup? I know a ls6 intake is supposed to add around 10-15 rwhp but i didnt know if that figure grows depending on ur mods. Mods in my sig.

A LS6 intake will wake it up some more.

I've seen 18rwhp gain on a cam only stock headed M6 car with just the swap of an LS6 intake. 15+ rwhp easy with your setup.

With your setup I'm sure you could expect 20+ at the wheels. You'll also notice it'll pull harder up top. I'm suprised you wouldn't have got one by now.
