Default New Weiand composit intake

Just heard about the new Weiand composit intake for LSX motors. Hope it is a no mod straight bolt on for the LS2. Price and performance look good. Advertised to be plus 30 Hp on the LS3 motor which has a better intake than our LS2. Anybody heard anything.

even if you have to do the 'firewall mod' it's worth it. I put mine on in an afternoon and it was a huge SOTP difference.

Even if this new Weiand/Starr intake is 'the future' of LSx intakes one still cannot go wrong with a FAST 90 (or 92) mm.
