Arrow Give me some options

What I have:
2002 blk WS6 6speed.
Mods:
borla exaust
3 1/4 Y-pipe
Shorty headers
upgraded air intake

I know my ls1 came with the ls6 intake but a smaller cam. im looking towards a 230* cam, ls6 heads, and a 90mm TB. should i stick with my stock ls6 intake or go ahead and do the fast 90/90 ? any opinions or other options would be nice. im looking for that nice lobe sound for my car with the horses to back it up lol im also thinking of selling my shortys to my friend and buying long tubes.. what you guys think?

get yourself some pacesetters 1 3/4, and at the same time buy their torquer v.2. you should be happy with that for a while.

MTI makes decent cams and if you want to try something different go to speed engineering customs:

You'll like the torquer v.2 if you want something in the 230's

If you stick with the ls6 intake then just get your stock tb ported out.
