been there justa little tip i wouldnt listen to someone who comes in the thread just to say that intake is junk and worse than the intake they made 10 years ago
and then posts links to where its worse but none of them are from ls1tech?? also he must have spent some time looking for those i wonder what he could find if he looked into it further? like maybe the people who run 10's na with them etc.. good luck with helpin your friend

I spend most of my time contributing to a MOSTLY LS2 forum, aka ls2gto.com. You **** can believe what you want. I don't see any of you maknig the power that I am cam and bolt-ons only. I didn't spend any quality time looking up that info. I used the SEARCH button on the gto forum, you know, where most of us have experience with LS2's. Who cares if the links came from here or not. There is plenty more relevant information available on the interwebz. I would not waste my time trying to make a LS1/6 intake work on my stock LS2 for the minimal gains, besides the fact that the STOCK TB is a drive-by-wire 90mm. It would cost me more to piece that together than the ported FAST 92 that I am running. You guys are pathetic.
To the OP, I understand where you are coming from on this, and if you are piecing together a motor it makes sense IF you are not spending the extra money to replace a stock LS1 intake with the LS2. If you already had the LS1 intake, I personally would have put the money else-where. I provided the info as just that - helpful info.
I guess at least we (LS2 owners) know we can always come unload our stock intakes here when we yank them off, instead of just throwing them away.

It would be nice to see more track times to back some of the big dyno numbers. Give us all of the info, race weight (thats the car as it ran down the track, car, driver, fuel etc.) ET, MPH, DA for the day, all of it. That will show the actual power, dyno horsepower looks good on paper, not always impressive where it really matters.

There are a lot of test out there, what surprised me most was that TPIS test http://www.tpis.com/index.php?module=2_17_06 on a motor with good heads and a 234 cam, the LS2 intake was really close to a Fast 90. My friend is building a L92 bottom end exactly like mine, he has LS6 CNC ported heads (patriot).
The only difference in the motors is the LS2 intake, and we went 5 degrees less on his cam because my motor makes the peak power too high at 6400. We want the peak to be closer to 6000. We are going to use the same SD tune that my motor has, then tweak if we need to. It will be interesting to see how much power he makes because everything is really close to my motor that makes 482.

No dyno tricks BTW. Runs were at a reputable shop (SNL Performance - look them up.) 32psi in 275 Nitto NT555R tires, 82.8*F, 75% humidity, 28.81 in-Hg, SAE corrected, smoothing 5 on a loaded dyno. This was right before our track closed for the year, and has been daily driven since. Like I said, bring what you got, and we'll see how it runs.

Mine is in TX - the stock shortblock just let go. I'll message you before I pick it up, and we'll see what we can figure out. It was a joke on street tires, and it's just fixing to get worse.
You don't even have a knife to bring to this gun fight right now, so I'm not sure why you're running your mouth, unless you just like nut-swinging. This car went 12.4's with just bolt-ons, and that was 100hp ago with a shitty 60'...
I Sure Do Miss It. I Got Somethin Else In The Works Though So It's All Good

Thanks to everyone for the input, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Everyone has an opinion, that 's what we are here for, to hear what everyone else has to share.
We all have a pretty good understanding of good and bad of LS2 intakes now.
Peace out. Back to the garage.
