Default real gain from ls6 intake???

I posted my numbers before and they seemed low to me. ms4 with lt's with no cats.... all the other stuff too execpt i have the ls1 intake. How much is that really hurting my numbers? 385rwhp 375rwtq

i am having a cluch issue but it seems it does not slip just "dies" after any hard shift... so i dont think that is effecting the numbers... but i dont know



What should i expect if i swap intakes and get it retuned??

For a TSP cam yes. They produce good Hp numbers but are low on torque.
I say 15-25 hp with an ls6 intake. I put down 355 before the intake and 375 after with cam only tr224

DTP has a ported LS2 for half the cost of a fast, on the dyno showed to be fairly equal to a non ported fast 90

if i were you just save a little money and just step up to the 90/90

take a look at ported Tb's www.s2performance.net this is who is porting my LS2 90tb
