Default LS2 intake or FAST 92 intake

ok so here is the scoop. i have a ss camaro that i put a ls6 crate motor with a ms3 cam an bbk ssi intake. it has been this way for sometime now an looking to make a lil more power. so i wanted to change my intake an TB. im buying a 90mm throttle body no matter what but my problem is intake. i have a LS2 intake that i can have ported really good or should i go with the fast 92. i keep hearing that if a LS2 intake is ported it is just as good as a fast 92. so looking for input. thanks

Ive heard the same gains can be seen between a ported ls2 intake vs unported 92mm fast.

It is not likely that a ported LS2 intake can come anywhere close to a Fast 92. Better yet find a FAST 92 and have it ported.

I had a ported LS2 intake and opted to go with a 102 Fast. Unported the Fast destroyed the ported LS2!
I think I picked up 18 rwhp and 21 rwtq over the ported LS2
My car just has bolt-ons so the gains are with the stock LS2 cam in place

a ls6 intake is better then a ls2 intake ,unported.consider a BBK or other alum ls intakes.if you can afford it get a used fast 90/92 intake.

BBK and other alum intakes are not going to work as well, do a search.
Get a Fast 102 and port it if you like, you will have some great gains. Make sure you have a decent tuner as these intakes pull a ton of air compared to the stockers!

the ls2 intake barely edges out the ls1...and the ls6 makes more peak, but stomps it under the curve.
