Default LS6 Intake

Anybody add one of these to your car? If so , was it worth it? I already have Supermaxx LT's and Z06 catbacks. Do you think this intake would make much of a difference?
Thanks,
Bobby

no. When i added mine it dyno-ed the same. I had put on bigger injectors too and the tuner was able to gain 4 rwhp. But keep in mine i had over 125K on the motor.

Wait and change it with a Heads/Cam package

You will get little or no gain from an LS6 intake on an internally stock engine. I know another member who gained no added HP when he installed an LS6 intake on his internally stock engine. Towercontroller is not the only one who gained zilch with an LS6 intake.
