which is better
Mods are in sig. I have a ls6 intake on the way. I have $400 left. Vararam or custom tuning. I have the pro-plow+ air box similar to the vortex

Re: which is better (rockgt302)
sorry, but you shoulda saved your money on the LS6 Intake...I got NOTHING from the install and did before and after dyno pulls....unless you end up going with a cam or heads or bigger cubes, it's a WASTE!
and since you already have an air box, I'd get the tuning :cheers:

I put one on my 98 TA and got 16rwhp from it. So I think I should get something, hopefully.

Re: which is better (Mean Green 2000)
Send the LS6 intake back and get some long tube headers. It may cost you more than the intake + the extra $400 you have, but not too much as long as you install yourself. The longtubes made a big difference on mine -- it pulls hard all the way to redline and the engine revs more freely.
Since you already have an intake, I would not replace it with the vararam as the HP gains will be minimal.
