Default LS6 Intake Q's

I just bought an intake off a fellow member, but was reading around about possible other parts I need. Is this true, or can I just take the LS1 1 intake off (1998 A4) and throw the other one on????

I think you need some kind of air hose as well. Im planning on doing this on my '98 so hopefully someone will answer you.

Im pretty sure you need 2 plugs, and some kind of hose or pipe. Sorry I dont know the exact parts, but I know they are cheap. Maybe call GM parts direct, they'll know. Im sure somone else will chime in with the exac specs.

You need 2 plugs to go in the rear coolant tubes. One pipe off a LS6 intake car with a hose that goes to your throttle body I believe I just did this mod 2 weeks ago. Also before you do this if your doing it yourself. Take a air compressor and blow out around the injectors really really really good. So no rocks fall into the cylinders when you do this. Pm me if you need anymore help
