Yes the intake is worth it ,I wish I had gotten the thermal coated one . I have the duel on my V8 and love it.

an engine is a air pump and the V8 and your V6 does not get enough air in, until you add a good intake the exhaust is good as i am running my srt 6 muffler with my V8. with the intake i suggest you add a pully and a tune. jim
