Yeah, Kano had picked up near that much when he swapped to an ls6 intake.

I'm wondering how a tune/headers/catback Lq9 will like an LS6 manifold. If that thing can get me even 3 or 4 tenths, I dont need to look boost anymore

LT headers + tune + catback + LS6 intake +Lq9 = super high 13 on a good day?


hmmmm

Truck intake = after about 6300-6400. I would think the car style would improve over the truck style over 5500 or so.

well don't count your chickens untill they hatch lol, every truck is different and will act different per mod, so untill you try it on your truck don't take it to heart.

maybe so but the low, mid power is were it is lost. It did feel better in the upper rpms, and was a better daily driver if that makes sense, never had that surging like the truck intake.

Well, I guess that makes sense......your e.t.'s rely on good 60's and the first couple hundred feet. I guess I've been basing my thoughts on like the Wood Hauler's setup (408). His truck feels great till about 5500-6000 then its like it hits a wall and it actually pulls harder when it shifts and drops back down some.

I feel the same way. My relatively stock truck just dies after 5k. Its why I got the long tubes. This LS6 manifold might just be what I'm after.
