Hopefully this doesn't turn out like the rest of the forums about ls2 intakes but here goes...
I am wanting to run a rear mount single turbo on my c6 and had come across some controversy over this ls2 intake vs ported ls6 intake vs fast 102 and on and on. Question is, is there much gain in upgrading the ls2 intake on a fi application?

I would say that if its forced induction the best intake is the stock one for now until it reaches to the level where you're running over 30 psi, I had a fast 102 and it blew apart and was leaking at 16 psi, I am now running the LS2 intake in my C5 at 22 psi and the stock LS3 intake in the C6.
Eliminated that headache and think about many other issues you will have in the process while doing that single rear mount Turbo.

Cool I didn't want to change it. Why do people dislike the rear mount so much? I have read the pros and cons but for a daily driver wouldn't a read mount be the way to go?
