    wouldn't putting an aftermarket intake be better though?

    I have head of people using spacers made of fiberglass, or a non conductive material. so heat does not soak. If your getting that style intake Id get a fast or a ls6.

    depending on your setup, "upgrading" your intake may be a waste of money and possibly hurt performance
