singleplane or ls6 IM Im im about to pull the trigger in a head cam setup, TSP/PRC stage 2.5 5.3.s and a patric G torque cam or simmillar.. the car is a pro touring malibi and the engine is a 2002 ls1, should i retain the ls6 IM or install a singleplane with a large TB... it is my inderstanding that the ls6 IM limits flow to 260 cfm.. and the fast 90 is up in the 275 range... if i install a 300+ cfm head isnt there a wisdom in installing an intake that doesnt hinder flow as much??
my tranny is a modded a4 and the stall is 2600 .. i know you are all going to yell that i need more stall, but acceleration out of a turn with a stalled converter is like trying to road race while the clutch is slipping.... so while it will hurt 60 foot times badly its really important that the stalling is over and done with when adding power comming out of a turn... (pro touring inst just a look, its about urns as mush as straight line perf)
so will mid to high range performance bennefit from a single plane or will the plastic IM do just as fine??

wow you are running almost exactly the cam im shooting for, except your ls is 113, where "mine" is 110... what are your thoughts on that combo.. and how are you liking the 3000 rpm stall in the MC?? and where can i see some pics of your MC??
