after realizing how hideous the truck intake is on my LQ9 is considering an intake swap. I plan on building a turbo motor I would like to make around 800whp. My budget is around 8-10k and I already have motor accessories harness transmission ect..
I’ve read that the only intakes that will fit the LQ9 with 317 heads is the ls1, ls2 and ls6. Most say the ls6 is the best of the 3. I think the mm is less on the ls6 compared to the stock intake and TB on my LQ9 so would that hurt me then since I’m going FI?
Also if I were to swap to the ls6 intake what else would I need to do to my motor? I think I will need new accessories or can I still use my current accessories and instead buy new brackets? Anything else ? What about wiring . Thanks
