How much air?
How much air is required for a c5 with h/c lt headers? I read all the posts about CAIs, larger TBs and manifolds. Then I read the dyno results from TPIS and I ask, "what do you get for the money spent and do I really need all that exspensive stuff?" I read that a stock airfilter with a Z06 cover flows 383 CFM and a stock TB can flow 582 CFM. What can a stock ls6 manifold flow? How much does my engine need? How much can it handle? Is there a "bottle neck" in the system? Anybody out there got numbers?
