Nice. Must be nice having rich parents.
Funny. He has a job. Bought his own truck and all those parts. Sorry to disappoint.
I know you've raised him right. Had to bust your balls. Was surprisingly easy to get your wife to set them out for me though.

Yeah. Thank God she doesn't make me drive her wagon. That would be over the top.
.... a fast intake for a cammed only 5.3..... RIP OFF
That is good info. Thanks guys. That is what I am looking for
The best bang for the buck is probably going to be cam/converter and a good tune. Aftermarket intake manifolds are something that is usually added after you have a large cam, worked heads, and the rest of the drive train worked out. Like an underdrive pulley, it does increase power, but it costs a lot, and there are other places where you can spend less and get more (like a converter, headers...).
It's kinda like if you wanted to make a rock-crawler out of a Wrangler, so you caged it, did all the suspension work, but left the stock tires on it. Sure, it'll be better than stock, but you're missing the more basic components.
EDIT: Just looked it up, and for the FAST LSXR-T intake manifold, it'll end up being around $1000-$1500 for the intake, throttle body, and fuel rails. For that kind of money you can get a good converter and a nice set of longtubes, and still have some cash left for gas.
