Thanks everyone for the imput. I think I will put everything in except the MAF at first, try it out, then put the SLP one in and try it. According to SLP description of it, it helps a lot. We'll see though. Thanks again!

Of course SLP will say it helps a lot. They are trying to sell product. If they say it gave a 10hp increase over the stock one, they might have tested it on a highly modified motor. I doubt they got their increase number from a near stock motor.

The cutting and snipping is for the cold air induction not the lid. The lid will take 5 minutes to install. Don't worry.

an ls6 is a little different.it probably is tuned to run with a bigger MAF due to better flowing stock heads.
as was mentioned earlier some people have good results using this and others dont.
