A fellow Corvette club member here has one on his C6. He seems to like it, but hasn't reported any specific numbers from a dyno tune.

I have the WCC Hurricane intake on '03 vert. I put it on the car after my Magnaflow X-Pipe and Borla Stingers, and at the same time as my LGPro longtubes and high flow cats. So I dont have the greatest data on the difference as I didnt do this alone.
Rick at Synergy tuned my car - including new plugs, and the end result was 364 rwhp on the dyno.

WCC intake
Just put one on my 04 Zo6 and love it. Looks and quality are there but I don't have any numbers for you. Also, you know SOTP feelings differ with everyone. Email me and I will send you some photos of it installed.. Also it takes a couple of hours to do but worth the effort. VNVETT

Installed a Hurricane on my 2001 about 18mos ago. I noticed some improvement in throttle response at the low end. Only two complaints are:
(1) It is a major pain to take apart, clean element and reassemble - probably easier with a helper to hold the air cleaner up while reinstalling shroud, but I always need 3 hands to get it done,
(2) In my case the connection hose is about 5/8" too short to pull everything together easily. WCC sent me another hose, but it too was too short?
