looks like someone also has a carbon fiber one made also.

The metal one has dyno numbers but it uses mph, instead of rpm. So you cant tell when it starts making power or anything.

The carbon fiber one has numbers for the ls7 intake, but he hasnt posted anything yet for the ls3, except that he built the first one.

I think the cheaper I have seen would be a Victor Jr, Fuel Injected with an Eldebrock Elbow and a 90mm Throttle Body..

Nothing available yet that resembles the stock style.

The stock intake (LS3/L76) is not bad performance wise, how much power do you plan to make?

You got a small Cam then.. Mine starts curving down right before 6400. Stock with that Intake is supposed to be 6200..something like that.

Stock bore LS3's are making more hp and tq with a good cam then you are. I don't think its the intake in your case. The intake would kill you on top, not at 4400. They all seem to show a dip at roughly that rpm range, +- 500rpms.

I'm running mid 9's N/A with the stock L76, it's not as bad as you think.

its capable of spraying up to 1200hp and it will flow better than any other intake out for the l92's.

lol

i wouldnt worry about dyno numbers. Id kill any stock CI lS3 vette.
by restrict i meant we can see where the intake starts to choke. It pulls to 6450.
