Default Intake options

Well guys. Was just at ecs tuning and shortly after the car was tuned I managed to blow my 90mm fast apart. (I blame nitrous) Anyway I put my factory ls1 intake on (which I guess is a ls6 intake cuz it's off a 01) well you can tell quite a loss in the power. (Not to mention my car was tuned for the 90/90 set up). Anyway as a cheaper route I was thinking about buying a ls2 intake since I already have the tb. Do they even compare to the fast set ups. And what about the other ones out there

Not tuned very well if you blew it up after the tune, It should of been tuned for the nitrous. I would stick to the LS6 intake over the LS2 and have your car tuned correctly.

No it's def not the tuner. I bought the intake used and it had a fogged system on it. I think I just did it in. The car ran phenomenal prior to that.
