u can hit it with 150 all day every day.. the only thing that will determine the reliability is the tune...

that kitt is 78mm will be a issue for me later on i plan on adding a 102mm tb+ 102mm lsxr intake aswell

not a bad kitt though would go that route if i was keeping my stock intake.

how much is an average kitt after u add everything u need besides a tune? if u may have a rough estimate..

just my opinion, but judging from seeing the video of your car that 102 is gonna be overkill unless you are planning on doing quite a few more supporting mods to the car. That would be money so so wisely spent at this point

A 150 will last for a long long time though if the car is tuned right

no really its going to hurt you. You will need a really, really big cam to use a 102. What is good for someone with a big cam 402 is not good for someone with a little cam 346 with spray. You can't just feed all that air in there and expect for your motor to just magically be able to put it to use. take that 1000 and buy a cam NOW, make sure you have good valve springs, good tune. ls6 intake if you don't have one. converter?

It is so much more important to have a set up that WORKS together. Not what claims to be the most bad *** new thing out there

You should really focus on rear suspension too with that money instead of wasting it on a fast if you don't have that already. That really should be the first thing you get before anything in my honest opinion.

You are wrong saying that a 102 will not work for his setup. He will gain power by changing to a 102. The difference is he will see small gains especially compared to cost. The bigger engines and more raidical setups see more gains.

The 102 is not to big for any engine. People used to say the same thing about 90's back in the day.

The money could be spent on better things like you mentioned suspension
