About the only thing that will hurt the stock intake is a nitrous backfire.

Max out your n-a 5.3 setup. I need a time to shoot for.

Thank you.

sportside 5.3 it will be awhile before it is all in I need to get a few things and do a little more reseach on a few things.Thanks guys for the help I though all you guys had
the aluminum intake.No no2 for me I have personly seen an intake blow up from a back fire that is why I am so questionable about putting a turbo on.
