    VS V8 - 65mm unless i'm incorrect, VS V6 is a out-of-round 58mm and 60mm.

    i wouldnt bother, you wouldn't notice much at all. I know these are about 10 times more expensive but get a twin throttlebody setup, then there will be difference.
    Some people say less talk more action, i say more torque less traction.

    yeah the inlet passage in the plenum is the big restriction, you'll need to massage that first or go twin throttle body on the V6
