ETs on a TPI to LT1 intake swap???

Im interested in times before and after the intake swap only or minimal mods at the same time to get an idea of what kind of gains have been recorded. I know these things take time to sort out but somewhere someone by now should have one installed, tuned and some slips before and after. Im considering either this or the new Holley Stealth Ram even tho neither have provisions for EGR and I the only reason Im asking is searching this topic didnt yield much in terms of people with slips. If you could post, your combo, car, motor and what not and gains Id appreciate it especially if you have slips. I dont know if its still just too soon for numbers but Im leaning away from wanting to go with a high flow after market TPI even though its sitting and waiting to go on in the backroom, thanks ahead of time!

Gofasterfirebird will have before and after times between TPI and LT1 very soon. I'm sure he'll post results as soon as he has times w/ the new LT1 intake.

Any times would be appreciated no matter what you got. I just want to see how restricting these stock style intakes are compard to these new offerings and whats the better way to go for ease, expense and results. I might sell my aftermarket base/runners and go with one or the other but Id really like to see real world results. So far the one post of dyno and ETs with nothing more than the StealthRam looks promising. Im in no rush so Ill wait and see what some others results are before i decide, thanks for the info and good luck!

Some guy ran a 12.3 or something and then blew his trans apart. I know his AIM handle just can't remember his TGO name.

He has no times before the intake only and thats what Im really after. Im surprised there arent more completed swaps with ETs already. Ill just bide my time, sounds like there are a few working on it as we speak hopefully they will post their results as soon as they have them...
