Default Added my LS6 intake...

I finally installed my LS6 intake tonight. I started it up and didn't have any idle issues. With the heads/cam already installed I think it made more of a diff then I thought it would. Seems to pick up alot at lower rpms. Vararam goes on sometime his weekend. Kaley

I put one in about a year ago. Had a problem though. My car started running richer. I think the computer over compensated or something. Actually lost time and gas mileage dropped. Did an LSI edit & seems to have straightened it out. However, put a Vararam in Wednesday so I hope it doesn't go goofy again on me. Good luck!;yn

Any of you guys have your throttle body ported/polished with your LS6 manifolds? Is it really worth the effort?
