Default 92 LT1 air intake options?

It is time to do a little tinkering with my 92 LT-1. I am not looking to make this into a supper car by any means. Just thinking about doing a few bolt on type things here and there. Thinking I will start with the air intake.

My question is what have you done? Why did you choose what you did? Have you had any actual before and after test done, what are the numbers (HP, torque, throttle response, MPG)?? Any addition programming necessarily needed with your mod?

Thanks
Dano

Honestly there's not much horsepower to be gained for a stock LT1 C4 in the intake or cat backs.

If you have an A4 with 2.59 rearend gears, a stall and gears would be a great performance mod.
