To accommodate and optimize on the less restrictive exhaust of the C8 is what GM says. Does it have anything to do with dealing with the head ports better? Maybe?

What's the advantage of the LT2 intake over the LT1??

LT2 intake runners are even length vs. uneven length on the LT1. Also, LT1 intake stops making power over 6000rpm...LT2 intake so far can make power to 7000rpm+ and when ported will perform within a couple of HP to a box stock $1200 MSD intake.

Do you have to trim it if you opt to keep it?

Weird...I left my foam injector "muffler" off when I did my LT2 swap and honestly I don't hear any difference in the car or outside with the hood open.

Did you have to take the manifold off to get it on

do you guys have long tube header pipes? i have 2" headers, it seems like the injector noise resonates through the primaries.

Super cool!! Me too. I was thinking of trying to fit the stock Lt1 cover. Looks good in there. It won't fool the dealer though.

Edit: Found it:
