On an otherwise stock or near-stock motor, you most likely won't see much, and it'll all be at the top of the powerband.

Gains will be slim to none. if you go with a fast 92 intake manifold then you'll pick up some power. You are better off with an LS6 manifold over an ls2.

You'll feel the throttle body but the LS2 has pretty much been proven to add next to nothing except a few hp in the upper rpms.
