Default Good next mod??

I was thinkin of gettin the FAST intake for my next mod. Just wanted to get a few opinions from guys that have this on their car. Do you like it? Any real gains? And what size is the stock intake for the Z06? Thanks for your input.

I've heard they're not that good of a bang for the $$ mod, if you don't do cam/heads/ other stuff first. You've already got LTs, and a cam will give you a lot more gain, and cost the same.(if you include the entire kit) I see Dbl Z beat me to the punch, and more concisely, too.

I forget the size, but the LS6 manifold is not a flow bottleneck on a basically stock engine. I think you'd do better to spend your $$ elesewhere.

See if you win the supercharger or forged short block at the A&A party in two weeks.
