Default New LSXRT intake. Pros and cons?

Well I just aquired a fast LSXRT intake for my LS2 6.0. It's going to have a 102mm throttle body and It's going on a stock bottom end LS2 6.0 with 225 trick flow heads and nitrous cam. Just wondering what you guys have seen that you like and dislike about this intake.

CON: Big price tag for not a lot of HP gain.

Does well on boosted applications I ran one with just the stock tb when I was 5.3/turbo and felt good. Only downside is like said above the cost it's more of a after the other bolt ons type mod.

I hated mine during install. But I found it for 800$ if you shop around. Be carefull with install check for leaks and make sure you have a good tuner.
