Bar Debate: Stealth Ram on Cam, and YPipe on stock heads and exhaust mans -worth it?
I'm starting to burn a little cash on my high miler (120,000 miles) LB9. I'm putting a T5 in (from the TH700R). As well as a GM 94666942 cam, and MAC Y-pipe. I'm teasing the idea of a stealth ram (Weind 7540) flowing through the stock heads and stock CAT, stock TB. In my defense I do have the Bosch D3 injectors and am signed up for a tune with Scott Hansen. I can always move that stealth ram to a cool rat motor build later. What do the forum members think? Waste of money right now at $450 for the ram intake?

You would also need the matching fuel rails. It's more like $700. The TPI rails don't fit. Then later the throttle body won't be big enough so there's another expense.
IMO, the First Performance intake is a better deal at $1000. Comes with everything.

Its all relative lol there may be some gains and a definite shift in power curve, so that may be worth it to some. Others maybe not. If you plan on a bigger build down the road keep the hsr

AFAIK it is not legal in CA.
