    Who the **** doesn't run 91+ in their cars?

    LS6 intake will easily make 20+.

    Tuning on my car net another 15-20~. Picked up another 10~ HP on e85.

    LS6 intake isn't just a bolt on manifold, FYI.

    And Ethanol requires running the tank dry; and having someone tune the car via laptop.

    No dyno stuff; you'll need a street tuned file so the car runs correctly.

    Truck intakes are very cheap and proven gains. You don't have to go ls6.

    I was being conservative with the power claims. all I know is what I've read from overkill.

    I didn't realize the gains from a truck manifold swap were the same as an LS6 intake manifold swap.
